Experienced Python Developer – Cambridge / Hybrid – £70–80k + Share Options

Are you a Python Developer who thrives in an environment where you can take real ownership of your work and see its impact in the real world? We’re working with an award-winning Cambridge-based startup making global waves in the environmental tech space — and they’re growing.

You’ll join a small, friendly, and highly capable team, working at the heart of their platform, developing and scaling a core web application used across multiple continents. This is a business that combines smart IoT hardware with clever algorithms to solve real-world problems — and your code will play a key role in how they deliver that.

You’ll be given autonomy from day one, contributing to the direction of the product, working closely with stakeholders from across the business, and helping to refine priorities. There’s lots of variety, interesting challenges, and a chance to shape things technically as one of the early hires into the dev team.

What you’ll need:

Strong commercial experience with Python

Solid SQL skills (raw and/or ORM)

Experience working across the full software lifecycle

Ability to collaborate cross-functionally in a fast-paced environment

Bonus experience (not essential):

HTML/JavaScript and modern web architectures

CI/CD (GitHub Actions ideally)

AWS – especially in relation to security and scalability

Automated testing (e.g. Selenium/WebDriver)

Agile practices

What’s on offer:

Salary to £80k

Employee share options

25 days holiday + bank holidays

Development budget & strong progression

Hybrid working (Cambridge HQ)

If you're looking for a role where you’ll be part of something meaningful, contribute to a growing platform, and work alongside genuinely good people, this is well worth a look.Experienced Python Developer – Cambridge / Hybrid – £70–80k + Share Options

Where to Advertise Data Engineering Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Advertising data engineering jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. Data engineers occupy a distinct discipline that sits between software engineering, data science and cloud infrastructure — and the strongest candidates identify firmly with the data engineering community rather than with adjacent roles. General job boards consistently conflate data engineering with data analysis, data science and BI development, producing high application volumes but low candidate quality for specialist pipeline and platform roles. This guide, published by DataEngineeringJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise data engineering roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Data Engineering Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Data engineering has become one of the most strategically important disciplines in the entire technology sector — and one of the most reliably in-demand. Every organisation that wants to use data to make decisions, train AI models, personalise products, manage risk, or understand its customers depends on data engineers to build the infrastructure that makes any of that possible. Without well-designed, reliable data pipelines, the most sophisticated machine learning model is worthless and the most ambitious analytics strategy is undeliverable. That foundational importance has made data engineering hiring remarkably resilient through the technology market corrections of the past few years. Where headcount reductions fell heavily on some engineering disciplines, demand for data engineers held firm — because the work of building and maintaining data infrastructure cannot be deferred in the way that some product development can. The data keeps coming. The pipelines need to work. But the data engineering jobs market of 2026 is not simply a stable version of what it was three years ago. The discipline has undergone a series of architectural shifts — from batch to streaming, from on-premise data warehouses to cloud-native lakehouses, from hand-rolled pipelines to declarative transformation frameworks, and most recently toward AI-augmented data engineering workflows that are beginning to reshape what the role looks like in practice. The employers hiring data engineers today are asking for a meaningfully different skill set than those hiring three years ago. The candidates who will thrive over the next three years are those who understand where the discipline is heading — which architectural patterns are becoming standard, which technologies are defining the modern data stack, and how the definition of a data engineering career is evolving toward a richer intersection of infrastructure, analytics, and AI enablement. This article breaks down what the UK data engineering jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career ahead of the curve.

New Data Engineering Employers to Watch in 2026: UK and Global Companies Driving the Data Revolution

Data engineering is at the heart of the digital economy, transforming raw data into actionable insights, powering analytics, AI systems, and cloud infrastructure. As the UK and global markets continue to invest heavily in data platforms, pipelines, and real-time analytics, demand for skilled data engineers is growing rapidly. For professionals exploring opportunities on www.DataEngineeringJobs.co.uk , the critical question is: which companies are expanding, hiring, and shaping the future of data-driven business? This article highlights new data engineering employers to watch in 2026, including UK startups, scale-ups, and international firms expanding in the UK.
