Senior Data Engineer (Consultancy)| Permanent | Auckland (Hybrid)

Great opportunity to join a growing data consultancy, focused on delivering impactful solutions that enable organisations to make better, data-driven decisions. 

About the role

You’ll operate across both hands-on engineering and solution design, working closely with clients to understand their data challenges and deliver high-quality outcomes.  This role will suit a strong Senior Data Engineer, or someone naturally progressing toward a Data Architect pathway, looking to take more ownership of design and direction.

Your key responsibilities include:
  • Design and build modern data platforms and pipelines using Snowflake and dbt
  • Work with stakeholders to understand, model, and improve their data landscape
  • Develop scalable, resilient ETL/ELT processes across varied data sources
  • Contribute to solution design and architecture decisions across engagements
  • Identify opportunities to improve performance, scalability, and automation
  • Collaborate across engineering, analytics, and client teams to deliver end-to-end solutions
About you

You’re a curious, client-focused problem solver who enjoys working in a consulting environment and delivering real outcomes. You'll bring:
  • Strong experience in data engineering, ideally within consulting or multi-client environments
  • Hands-on expertise with Snowflake and dbt
  • Experience building data pipelines, warehouses, and/or modern data platforms
  • Strong SQL and experience working with cloud-based data ecosystems (AWS, Azure, or GCP)
  • The ability to translate business needs into technical solutions
  • Excellent communication skills and confidence working directly with stakeholders 
If you’re looking to step into a role where you can combine hands-on engineering with growing architectural influence, we’d love to hear from you! Apply Today and Paula Rae Broussard (paula@momentum.co.nz) will be in touch.

**Please note that only applicants currently based in New Zealand with the appropriate work rights (valid visa) will be considered**
