Job Summary:

Our client, a major international bank, is looking for a Software Engineer to join its Global Storage function within Engineering & Enterprise Technology. This is a hands-on, cross-disciplinary role covering data engineering, application development and infrastructure, focused on building a standardised platform for archiving and searching data from decommissioned systems and regulatory sources. You will design and build ETL pipelines that feed a Hitachi Content Platform (HCP) object store, and help move the business toward a semi-automated on-boarding service for new applications. Strong Python or PowerShell scripting, a further object-oriented language, and UI development experience (ideally React) are essential.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design and deliver ETL pipelines that move structured and unstructured data into an object-store based archive, on demand and to a repeatable standard
• Create a reusable framework that lets decommissioned applications hand off their data in a pre-agreed format so it can be ingested and made searchable
• Build a secure, standard search interface across the resulting archives
• Own the full lifecycle of the pipelines you build: coding, testing, documentation and ongoing support
• Contribute to the underlying infrastructure needed for efficient extraction, transformation and loading from a range of source systems
• Turn pipeline output into business insight, including reporting built in Power BI, and work closely with business, product, data and design stakeholders

Qualifications and Requirements:

• Extensive experience building and tuning large-scale data pipelines, architectures and datasets, across both structured and unstructured sources
• Strong hands-on scripting experience in Python or PowerShell across both Windows and Linux
• Experience in application development with: C#, JavaScript or .NET
• Experience in Front-end/UI development experience, ideally with React
• Comfortable operating across a complex, multi-stakeholder organisation, with clear written and verbal communication and strong analytical thinking
• Desirable: Ansible Automation Platform playbooks, MSSQL/Oracle, Hitachi Content Platform, or Solr
