Data Engineer
Term: Full-time, Permanent
Location: High Wycombe with hybrid remote working available
Salary: £50000 - £65000 pa depending on experience + excellent benefits
Focusrite are looking for an experienced data engineer to join our business intelligence team. You'll help us build and maintain a robust yet flexible data stack, delivering high quality information where it's needed (and keeping it secure where it's not!).
We make extensive use of SQL, dbt, Snowflake and Power BI, as well as various other tools. We work closely together using pair programming, peer review and DevOps practices. We relish the chance to learn new things, independently and from each other.
We are looking for someone who:

  • Is an SQL expert, able to quickly identify data issues with a pithy query.
  • Has opinions about permissions, schemas, APIs and models, and can share them collaboratively.
  • Knows how to structure, profile and monitor a data warehouse, and what to watch out for.
  • Is familiar with visualising data and delivery tools such as Power BI.
  • Has an interest in analysis and modelling as well as infrastructure.
    You don't mind doing the mundane stuff, because you set everything up to make the mundane stuff, well, mundane (and therefore easy and low risk). That leaves time build new data marts for our stakeholders, identify data pipelines to be improved and be a stickler for adhering to privacy regulations.
    Do you:
  • Have a knack for extracting requirements from big picture stakeholders?
  • Know who Inmon and Kimball are?
  • Have a background in economics, statistics or computing?
  • Enjoy helping people get the most from data?
  • Go on occasional nerdy tangents?
    If so, and if you've built a data stack that your colleagues trusted and depended on, we'd love to hear from you!

Negotiating Your Cloud Job Offer: Equity, Bonuses & Perks Explained

How to Secure a Compensation Package That Reflects Your Value in the UK’s Booming Cloud Computing Sector Introduction Cloud computing has become the backbone of modern enterprise infrastructure. From small start-ups deploying microservices to multinational corporations scaling complex data analytics, the demand for cloud-savvy professionals continues to accelerate. If you’re working in cloud architecture, DevOps, infrastructure security, or any other mid‑senior role in the cloud domain, your expertise is in high demand—and so is your ability to negotiate a well-rounded compensation package.

By delving deeper into these compensation components, you can maximise your earnings and ensure your new role supports both your career growth and personal well-being. In this comprehensive guide, we’ll explore every dimension of negotiating a cloud job offer. Whether you’re an established Cloud Solutions Architect eyeing a role at a cutting-edge start-up or a mid‑senior DevOps engineer seeking a leadership position at a global corporation, you’ll find insights on how to evaluate, compare, and negotiate all elements—from salary and equity to perks like flexible working and training budgets. Read on to discover how to turn a standard job offer into a holistic package that truly reflects your impact in the cloud computing arena.

Cloud Jobs in the Public Sector: Exploring Opportunities Across GDS, NHS, MOD, and More

Contract vs Permanent Cloud Jobs: Which Pays Better in 2025?

Cloud computing has become the cornerstone of modern business operations. From global enterprises migrating entire data centres to the cloud, to start‑ups building cloud‑native applications, the reliance on services such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and niche offerings (like IBM Cloud or Oracle Cloud) continues to rise sharply. As the adoption of cloud grows, so do the opportunities for professionals in the field—be it cloud architects, DevOps engineers, cloud security specialists, or site reliability engineers (SREs).

Each route offers a distinct mix of pay structure, job security, benefits, and career advancement possibilities. Making the right decision hinges on your personal priorities—whether that is maximising short‑term earning potential, achieving stable long‑term growth, or somewhere in between. This article breaks down the cloud job market in 2025, compares different forms of employment, and provides sample take‑home pay scenarios for three typical cloud roles. By exploring the pros and cons of each arrangement, you will be better equipped to decide which path aligns best with your career goals, financial needs, and lifestyle preferences.
