Ever wondered what it feels like to be a Principal Data Engineer in Netcompany ?
Joining us as a Principal Data Engineer, you will lead and grow multiple delivery teams in our Data Intelligence & AI practice, owning a portfolio of cloud data lake and lakehouse engagements across Azure, AWS and Databricks. This is a strategic technical leadership role: you will set technical direction, shape how AI coding assistants and agentic workflows reshape data engineering delivery, lead pre-sales and bids, and grow the Leads who run individual engagements — while staying technically credible enough to go deep when it matters.
As a Principal Data Engineer you will:
• Lead and grow multiple delivery teams of Cloud Data Management and Data Lake Engineers, managing Leads and Engineering Principals, setting technical direction and coaching at scale.
• Own a portfolio of client engagements end-to-end — delivery quality, commercial health, risk, and strategic alignment across the portfolio.
• Shape technical strategy and architecture standards for cloud-native data lakes and lakehouses (Delta Lake, Apache Iceberg) using medallion architecture on Azure, AWS and/or Databricks.
• Drive AI-powered transformation across the practice — defining how AI coding assistants, agentic workflows and LLM-based accelerators reshape data engineering delivery, and rolling these patterns out at scale.
• Lead pre-sales and commercial activities: solution design, technical estimations, bid leadership, and client conversations at Director / VP level.
• Partner with the Head of Data Management and BI Engineering on practice growth — hiring, capability building, the capability roadmap, and positioning the practice in the market.
• Build cross-practice partnerships with AI/ML, BI and application leadership so that what your teams deliver serves analytics, AI and operational use cases end-to-end.
• Champion engineering excellence and DataOps maturity — CI/CD for data, IaC, security, observability and governance — across all teams under your remit.
