Data Engineer Asset Performance & Renewable Energy Analytics The opportunity An established renewable energy and digital solutions business is expanding its Asset Performance Management (APM) technology team and is hiring an experienced Data Engineer to support large-scale operational renewable assets. This role sits within a product-focused engineering group responsible for building and scaling data platforms used to monitor, optimise, and improve the performance of wind, solar, and energy storage assets globally. You will work closely with software engineers, data scientists, and platform teams to design and operate high-quality data pipelines that directly underpin operational decision-making and analytics for live energy assets. Key responsibilities Design, build, and maintain scalable data pipelines using Databricks (including Delta Live Tables). Develop robust ETL/ELT workflows ingesting data from operational, telemetry, and third-party systems. Optimise pipeline performance, reliability, and cost efficiency in cloud environments. Ensure data quality, lineage, governance, and documentation across production systems. Collaborate cross-functionally with analytics, product, and platform teams. Support CI/CD automation for data pipeline deployment. Contribute to reusable frameworks and engineering best practices within the team. Essential experience Candidates must have prior, hands-on experience working with at least one of the following APM platforms : Power Factors Bazefield GPM This experience is critical, as the role involves working directly with data models, integrations, and operational outputs from these platforms. Technical requirements Proven experience as a Data Engineer in production environments. Strong Python and SQL skills. Hands-on Databricks experience (DLT, Delta Lake; Unity Catalog desirable). Solid understanding of data modelling, data warehousing, and distributed systems. Experience with cloud data platforms (Azure preferred; AWS or GCP acceptable). Familiarity with Git-based workflows and CI/CD pipelines. Exposure to analytics or ML-driven use cases is beneficial. Nice to have Databricks certifications (Associate or Professional). Experience supporting asset-heavy or industrial environments. Background in energy, utilities, or infrastructure data platforms. Why this role Work on live, utility-scale renewable assets rather than abstract datasets. High-impact role within a mature but fast-evolving digital platform. Strong engineering culture with real ownership and technical influence. Long-term stability combined with ongoing platform growth and investment.

Join a leading hybrid-electric aircraft programme as an Electrical Systems Engineer Are you interested in contributing to the next generation of sustainable aerospace technologies? Would you like to support the development of hybrid-electric propulsion systems as part of a major UK government-backed R&D programme? We re working with a globally recognised aerospace organisation that is in the early phases of developing a hybrid-electric aircraft. This includes designing the energy storage, electric power distribution, and propulsion systems for a new, more-electric platform. As part of this, the team is looking to bring in a number of experienced Electrical Systems Engineers on a 12-month contract basis. Your responsibilities will include: Leading platform-level trade studies to help define and refine system-level electrical requirements. Supporting the selection and development of electrical system architectures. Collaborating with multidisciplinary teams to deliver detailed system specifications and performance requirements. Working with customers, partners, and suppliers to support the integration of emerging technologies and align with future capability needs. Defining and executing strategies for system-level verification and validation. We re looking for candidates with: A degree in Engineering (or equivalent), ideally with an electrical focus. A strong understanding of how electrical systems interact with other subsystems. Familiarity with systems engineering tools and techniques such as MBSE and DFMEA. The ability to work collaboratively and influence technical direction within a team environment. Preferably, prior experience across the full lifecycle of aircraft electrical power system development. Contract details: Inside IR35 Paid via PAYE or umbrella company Competitive rates available 37 hours per week Hybrid working: 3 days on site per week UK working rights required BPSS clearance required prior to starting If you re interested in learning more, apply now or get in touch with Charles Orr at (url removed) or on (phone number removed) .
