Full Job Description

We are looking for a platform-oriented Data Scientist who is as comfortable working with data pipelines and data models as they are with analysis. This is not a pure modelling role. You will focus on designing and enabling data science and analytics workloads on modern data platforms, ensuring that data is accessible, reliable, and production-ready for downstream use. You will play a key role in shaping how data is structured, governed, and consumed across enterprise environments.

  • 3-6 years' experience in data-focused roles (data science, analytics engineering, or data platform roles)
  • Strong hands-on experience with at least one of Snowflake, Databricks and Microsoft Fabric
  • Advanced SQL skills and experience working with large-scale, distributed datasets
  • Strong Python skills for data processing, transformation, and analysis
  • Solid understanding of:
  • - Data modelling (dimensional, Lakehouse, etc.) - Data warehousing concepts - Batch and/or streaming data pipelines
  • Experience working in cloud environments
  • Experience collaborating with data engineers, architects, and platform teams
  • Ability to deliver production-ready data assets, not just exploratory outputs
  • Preferred skills and qualifications
  • Familiarity with Spark and distributed data processing frameworks
  • Experience with performance tuning and cost optimisation on cloud data platforms
  • Exposure to data governance frameworks and tooling
  • Experience supporting BI and analytics tools (Power BI, Tableau, Qlik)
  • Basic understanding of machine learning workflows (as a secondary capability, not core focus)
  • Key competencies
  • Platform-first mindset: thinks in terms of systems, scalability, and reuse
  • Strong data modelling capability: able to design data structures that support multiple use cases
  • Operational focus: builds solutions that are reliable, maintainable, and production-ready
  • Collaboration: works effectively across engineering, analytics, and business teams
  • Clear communication: able to translate complex data concepts into business-relevant language
  • Pragmatic delivery: balances technical quality with real-world constraints

    You will join NTT DATA UK's Data & AI Practice, a multi-disciplinary team delivering enterprise-scale data platforms, analytics, and AI solutions. Our focus is on building modern, scalable data platforms that enable advanced analytics and data-driven decision-making across organisations.
  • This role sits at the intersection of data engineering, analytics, and platform enablement, with a strong emphasis on Snowflake, Databricks, and Microsoft Fabric ecosystems.
