If you're a Databricks connoisseur.. This is an implementation that you will want to be part of!

My prestigious client have received significant investment to modernise their data lakehouse platform, transforming their legacy systems into a real-time Databricks, PowerBI and AWS platform. This platform will elevate the business, ultimately transforming the way in which they work and utilise data.

Having worked for the company for many years, he is well respected across the business and essentially.. People enjoy working for him!

What I love about this role, is that they will up-skill you AI/ML as this evolves on their road-map! So if you're fascinated in the world of AI, these guys are big on training and development, having invested in vast amounts of e-learning materials in order to ensure their staff are well supported within on-going learning and development. They really believe in getting the best out of their people!
