Job Description:

The world of data in Central Banking is evolving rapidly. With the rise of detailed data collection in financial regulation and the swift advancements in cloud-native data technologies, the demand for visionary data engineers is growing. Were seeking a senior Data Engineer to join our Data Engineering team and play a pivotal role in shaping the Banks strategic cloud-first data platform.

As a senior member of the team, you will play a key role in designing and delivering robust, scalable data solutions that support the Banks core responsibilities around monetary policy, financial stability, and regulatory supervision. Youll contribute to technical design decisions, mentor engineers, and collaborate across teams to ensure our data infrastructure continues to evolve and meet future demands.

Role Responsibilities

• Lead the design, development, and deployment of scalable, secure, and cost-effective distributed data solutions using Azure services (e.g., Azure Databricks, Azure Data Lake Storage, Azure Data Factory).

Changed this now. I was confusing this with PDE role as I am working on that in parallel. Hope this makes sense now.

data solutions rather than architectures?

Should add Python here as a key tech we use

Have mentioned Python in ‘Minimum Criteria’ section below, but will add here too

this could be added to Essential Criteria ?

stakeholder and project management ?

Have updated #1 in essential criteria below. But I have now used the previous version to create requisition in OBS. Will see if it can be changed.

What is the difference between “minimum” and “essential” criteria. Both imply that they are mandatory and so could be one list?

This is a bit confusing. I used to have just one, but this is the standard format of JD that the Bank wants us to follow. Here is the difference:

Min Criteria:

This must list the minimum technical skills/experience/qualifications required to do the job and should be measurable/scoreable. The screening questions you select must link to these, in order to allow candidates to best demonstrate their suitability for the role.

Essential:

This lists other important technical skills/experience/qualifications, and also more behavioural competencies. These are ones that are better assessed at interview rather than on screening questions on the application form

Ok, I think we could go back and ask HR about this as it does seem confusing and to me doesn’t give a good impression of the Bank to applicants at it looks like 2 lists for the same thing.

I had checked this earlier, but seems they want us to follow this format. When I advertised last time, I just mentioned Minimum Criteria, but they said it has to be split into Minimum and Essential.

Don’t think we need to mention Atlas or Cloudera Manager as we hardly ever use those. Airflow could be useful so would leave that in.
