Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, England
Lead Data Engineer (National Security)
Salary: £80,000–£120,000 Clearance: Active eDV required Location: Key National Security hubs | Hybrid / secure-site working depending on programmeThere comes a point where another pipeline isn’t enough.You want to shape the technical direction, influence the customer and have a say in what actually gets built.I’m supporting a specialist Data & Geospatial SME that has recently secured strategically important National Security work ahead of significantly larger competitors — largely on the strength of its technical capability and credibility in the space.This is a senior role, operating around SFIA 5–6, with genuine ownership.You won’t be disappearing into a large delivery team. You’ll be expected to shape solutions, guide technical direction and work directly with senior customer stakeholders, including C-level contacts.What you’ll be working across
PythonAWS and cloud-native data servicesModern data platformsETL / ELT and scalable pipelinesData modelling and architectureDistributed data processingCI/CD and Infrastructure as CodeTechnical design and solution ownership
The role is still hands-on, but the value is in the influence you’ll have around it.You’ll be close enough to the customer to understand the real problem, senior enough to challenge the approach, and technical enough to help shape the solution properly.Why it’s worth a look
This should appeal if you want:
Greater technical ownershipDirect access to senior customer stakeholdersMore influence over architecture and deliveryA specialist engineering environment rather than a huge primeStrong learning and developmentThe chance to work on strategically important National Security programmes
The business is in a genuine growth phase, and this role sits close to that expansion rather than being another hire into an established delivery machine.Clearance
Active eDV clearance is required for this opportunity due to the nature of the live programme.If you’re already operating at Senior / Lead / Principal level and want a role where your technical judgement actually carries weight, this is well worth a conversation.As an industry leading, nationwide Marketing, Digital, Analytics, IT and Design recruitment agency, we are continually receiving new assignments to work on, so keep a close eye on our website, Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter pages for a full list of current permanent and interim opportunities as well as marketplace news and fun stuff.
