VIQU have partnered with a nationally recognised organisation that has recently completed a full migration from on-premise infrastructure to Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and is now building a modern, domain-oriented Data Mesh. This is a critical leadership hire as they continue to scale their cloud data platform and embed engineering excellence across multiple product domains.

This is not a step-up role. They will only consider candidates with proven Principal or Lead-level experience, including clear ownership of engineers, standards, and cross-domain architectural direction.

The Role

As Principal Data Engineer, you will be the senior technical authority across data product squads, driving strategy, architecture, and engineering best practice.

Key responsibilities include:

• Providing visible, hands-on technical leadership across multiple domain teams
• Defining how projects are approached and ensuring delivery standards are upheld
• Designing and governing scalable pipelines using BigQuery, Dataflow, Datastream, Data Fusion, Dataproc and Cloud Composer (Airflow)
• Leading best practice across dbt, Terraform, Docker and CI/CD
• Driving Data Mesh adoption, domain ownership, and interoperable data products
• Setting modelling standards across raw, curated and semantic layers
• Embedding governance covering lineage, MDM, data quality, PII and compliance
• Mentoring and challenging senior engineers to maintain high standards

You will work closely with Architects and Platform Engineering to ensure performance, cost control, security and scalability across the GCP estate.

What They Need

• 10+ years in Data Engineering
• Clear, demonstrable experience leading engineers at Lead/Principal level
• Deep, hands-on GCP experience (this is essential)
• Strong SQL and Python expertise
• Experience building cloud-native data platforms end-to-end
• Strong background in Data Lake/Warehouse architecture
• Proven experience implementing CI/CD and infrastructure as code
• Confidence to challenge stakeholders and influence technical direction

Candidates without strong, proven leadership experience in enterprise-scale environments will not be considered.

Why Join?

You’ll be joining at a pivotal stage in the evolution of a 100% cloud-native platform. The foundations are in place, but the Data Mesh journey is still being shaped. This is a genuine opportunity to influence architecture, standards, and the long-term engineering strategy - fully remote, with executive backing and real scope for impact.

Apply now to speak with VIQU IT in confidence. Or contact Aaron Chiverton on the VIQU website. Know someone great? Refer them and receive up to £1,000 if successful (terms apply).

You’ll work closely with AI engineers, security teams, and product stakeholders to transform experimental models into hardened, production-ready services while shaping a reusable AI platform capable of supporting multiple products.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Design and optimise scalable RAG pipelines and vector search systems
• Orchestrate multi-model AI services with a focus on latency, resilience and performance
• Productionise GenAI workflows and ensure they operate reliably under real usage
• Build and run AI services across AWS and Databricks
• Develop ingestion, embedding and retrieval pipelines
• Deploy containerised workloads via Kubernetes and Helm
• Implement Infrastructure-as-Code using Terraform
• Introduce end-to-end monitoring, tracing and alerting for AI workloads
• Improve inference and retrieval performance while reducing operational cost
• Establish fault-tolerant, scalable infrastructure patterns
• Embed security, evaluation and governance into the AI lifecycle
• Build CI/CD pipelines and automation to support continuous model deployment
• Create reusable platform components to accelerate future AI initiatives

Strong experience in:

• Cloud infrastructure engineering (AWS-focused environments)
• Kubernetes, containerisation, and distributed systems
• Terraform / Infrastructure-as-Code
• CI/CD, automation, and platform reliability
• Running production workloads with high availability requirements

Plus, experience with one or more of the following:

• MLOps or ML platform engineering
• RAG architectures, embeddings, or vector search
• Model serving, observability or performance optimisation
• Data / AI workflow orchestration in Databricks or similar ecosystems

Why Join?

• Work on real-world AI systems operating at scale
• Own platform design decisions and influence long-term architecture
• Blend modern DevOps practices with cutting-edge Generative AI use cases
• Be part of a growing, innovation-driven engineering environment
• Opportunity to define how AI is operationalised across multiple products

If you’re excited by building the infrastructure that makes AI usable, scalable and reliable in production, we’d love to hear from you.
