Snowflake Data Engineer

Contract Data Engineer - Snowflake & Matillion

Rate: £420/day Outside IR35
Duration: 3 months (likely extension)
Location: Fully Remote (occasional half-day onsite optional)

About the Role

We're looking for a hands-on Data Engineer who can do more than just deliver - someone who brings best practice, thinks creatively, and challenges the status quo. You'll be working with a modern data stack (Snowflake, Matillion) to design, model, and optimise data solutions that perform at scale.

This isn't a role for someone who just ticks boxes. We want a proactive problem-solver who can advise on strategy, drive improvements, and deliver robust solutions.

Key Responsibilities

* Design and implement data models that support business needs.
* Optimise performance across Snowflake and Matillion pipelines.
* Deliver hands-on solutions while advising on best practices.
* Collaborate with remote teams and communicate effectively.
* Bring fresh ideas and think outside the box.

What We're Looking For

* Strong experience with Snowflake and Matillion.
* Solid understanding of data modelling and ETL performance tuning.
* Ability to challenge and improve processes, not just follow them.
* Excellent communication skills - confident and clear.
* A team player who fits into a fun, people-first culture
