Zoopla · London
Zoopla is one of the UK’s most instantly recognisable property brands. In fact, we’re known and loved by over 91% of the nation (and we’re working hard on the other 9%). Our mission is to help the nation make better home decisions - by connecting everyone to their home and giving them personalised insights to help with moving, managing or financing. Over 50 million people visit Zoopla every month to access exclusive data and information on every UK property, search over 500,000 homes for sale and rent, find the best agents and secure the latest mortgage deals.
We’re a growing, dynamic team that embraces innovation and isn’t afraid to push the boundaries. We’re only just starting our journey to redefine the digital property landscape, with much more to explore and achieve. Join us, and transform the way the nation makes home decisions.
We're looking for a Senior Data Engineer to build the next stage of our data platform.
The Data team exists to turn Zoopla's data into value: better decisions for the business, better products for our consumers and customers, and direct revenue where the data itself is the product. Data Engineering is the foundation all of that runs on.
Databricks on AWS is our single foundation, with dbt for modelling, Fivetran for SaaS sources and AWS services for internal sources. Our ingestion and export patterns grew one at a time over several years. We want a small number of patterns that are clear, owned and easy to run, and we want the engineer who designs them to build them.
You'll report to our Data Engineering Manager and work closely with our platform engineers, so that our technical systems align and we can make ambitious choices together.
Data Engineering sits in the Data team alongside Analytics Engineering, Analytics and Data Science, and works side by side with Platform Engineering and Platform Product.
We're AI forward, maybe it doesn't get everything right now, but what's to say it won't tomorrow.
At Zoopla, we embrace hybrid working but emphasise the importance of also spending time together. You’ll have the opportunity to work remotely (at home) for two days per week with Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays as all-Zoopla days in the office together.
Our home in Tower Bridge is a buzzing hub for collaborative and individual working, with areas to socialise and exercise - within easy reach of London Bridge, Tower Hill and Bermondsey stations. On our doorstep there are plenty of great food spots including a new indoor street food market and landscaped areas to sit by the riverside.
