Data Engineer

We exist to ensure the UK has the best full fibre networks, to provide the best Gigabit capable connectivity and broadband to UK businesses through our growing partner community. This enables opportunity, progress, exploration, creativity, innovation and commerce. Rapidly advancing technology means there's never been a more exciting time; for you, for business, and for the future.

The ITS network is called 'Faster Britain'. As the Government promises 85% Gigabit capability by 2025, we're playing a key role in this vision by delivering ultrafast connectivity to business dense areas across the UK, working with partners to identify the right locations and then maximising subsequent connection rates.

Role Description

As a Data Engineer at ITS you will be a core member of the wider technical team, responsible for designing, building, and optimising the pipelines that turn raw network, commercial, and operational data into trustworthy, analytics ready assets. Working closely with Data Analysts, Network Engineering, and Digital teams, you will own our data platform, ensuring data is accurate, timely, and secure to drive reporting, automation, and develop towards AI driven decision making.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, develop and maintain scalable ELT/ETL pipelines that ingest data from network devices (IPDR, SNMP, OSS/BSS), CRM, finance, and IoT platforms into our BI warehousing environment.

• Model data using Kimball/star schemas and data vault principles to support BI and self service analytics.

• Implement data quality, lineage, and observability tooling (e.g., dbt tests, Great Expectations, Azure Purview).

• Optimise storage and compute costs through partitioning, incremental loads, and automation.

• Collaborate with DevOps to embed CI/CD and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Azure DevOps pipelines).

• Work with stakeholders to capture data requirements and translate them into technical solutions.

• Ensure data is handled in line with GDPR, ISO 27001, and company security policies.

• Mentor junior data team members and champion a data driven culture across ITS.

About You

• Proven experience as a Data Engineer (or similar), building cloud data platforms.

• Strong SQL and Python skills for data transformation and automation.

• Hands-on with modern ELT frameworks (e.g., dbt, Fivetran, ADF, Synapse Pipelines).

• Experience with version control (Git) and CI/CD for data.

• Knowledge of data modelling techniques and performance optimisation.

• Familiarity with data governance, security, and privacy best practices.

• Experience with network-centric datasets (fiber, GPON, ethernet, Wi-Fi telemetry).

• Exposure to streaming technologies (Kafka, Event Hubs) and real-time analytics.

• Knowledge of Machine Learning Ops (MLflow, Databricks).
