Reasoning

Why it fits

  • The candidate currently holds a senior data engineer role with relevant recent experience.
  • Strong skills in Python, SQL, dbt, and data modeling align well with the job requirements.
  • Experience with Azure data platforms and CI/CD practices supports the DevOps and data pipeline orchestration needs.
  • The candidate has mentoring experience, matching the job's requirement to mentor mid-level engineers.
  • Located in London and open to hybrid work modes, matching the job's location and work mode.

Watch-outs

  • The candidate's primary experience is with Azure cloud, while the job requires AWS expertise, which may require some ramp-up.
  • The job emphasizes streaming data technologies like Kafka and Airflow on AWS, which are less prominent in the candidate's recent roles.
  • The job is in the technology and internet sector, whereas the candidate's recent roles are mostly in health and consulting sectors, which may affect domain fit.
  • The job requires hybrid work with 2 days a week onsite in Shoreditch; the candidate's work mode preferences are defaulted and may need confirmation.
