Location : East Coast (NY / NJ, Atlanta, Charlotte, or South Florida)

Who We Are :

We believe our work should always create a remarkable impact for our clients. Through our regional offices, known as ‘Clubs,’ we build strong relationships with our partners, ensuring they are prioritised by teams located nearby.

Join us and help fulfil our mission to close the world’s digital skills gap.

Principal Data Engineer

AND Digital is seeking a Principal Data Engineer to lead data strategy, platform architecture, and client delivery across its fast-scaling US business. This is a senior, client-facing role that blends hands-on technical depth in Snowflake with consulting delivery, helping organisations modernise their data ecosystems to power AI, analytics, and digital transformation.

You’ll work closely with the Solutions Director of Data & AI to ensure data architectures are designed with AI-readiness in mind - enabling clients to unlock value from their data through scalable, cloud-based platforms. Clients typically span Financial Services, Travel, and Technology, with projects centred on data modernisation, automation, and actionable intelligence.

Key Responsibilities

Snowflake Strategy & Architecture

  • Define and own the Snowflake architecture strategy for US clients - from ingestion to transformation and modelling.
  • Lead end-to-end design and implementation of Snowflake-based data platforms, ensuring scalability, performance, and security.
  • Establish best practices for schema design, query optimisation, and performance tuning within Snowflake.
  • Guide clients on Snowflake feature adoption (e.g. Snowpark, Streams, Tasks, Data Sharing, and Governance).
  • Ensure platforms are optimised for integration with downstream AI, analytics, and digital products.

Data Engineering & Delivery Leadership

  • Lead client-facing data engineering and strategy engagements, ensuring technical excellence and commercial success.
  • Oversee development of data pipelines and transformations feeding Snowflake environments.
  • Promote consistency in design patterns, CI / CD, and version control across teams and projects.
  • Drive operational excellence through measurable engineering standards and quality frameworks.
  • Client Engagement & Consulting

  • Work directly with senior client stakeholders to define data modernisation roadmaps and business outcomes.
  • Collaborate closely with AI, Product, and Cloud leads to align Snowflake data foundations with broader solution delivery.
  • Represent the data practice in proposals, workshops, and technical discovery sessions.
  • Leadership, Capability & Growth

  • Mentor and develop data engineers and architects across US and nearshore teams.
  • Contribute to building AND Digital’s Snowflake delivery capability - frameworks, accelerators, and training.
  • Support business development and pre-sales conversations with Snowflake-aligned solution expertise (partner-sales alliances approaches put into practice)
  • Key Evaluation Criteria

  • Proven experience designing and delivering Snowflake data platforms at scale.
  • Deep technical fluency in Snowflake architecture, data modelling, and SQL optimisation.
  • Strong understanding of data engineering best practices - ingestion, orchestration, transformation, and governance.
  • Demonstrated success in consulting or delivery-led environments, balancing technical rigour with client outcomes.
  • Experience leading cross-functional teams (data, AI, analytics) across multiple geographies.
  • Excellent communicator — credible with both technical and business stakeholders.
  • Minimum 2+ years in a leadership capacity within data or platform engineering.
  • Experience & Skills

  • 8-12 years in data engineering or architecture, with at least 3 years focused on Snowflake.
  • Technical agnostic expertise, such as SQL, Python, and data orchestration tools (Airflow, dbt, or similar).
  • Understanding of how Snowflake underpins AI and analytics initiatives.
  • Experience managing distributed or nearshore data delivery teams.
  • Excellent problem-solving and client-facing skills.
  • Must reside on the East Coast (NY / NJ, Atlanta, or South Florida).
  • Why join AND Digital?

    We have three values : wonder, share, and delight. These values inform how we work with clients, and our culture : what it feels like to work for AND. We believe collaboration, ambition, curiosity and fun can drive innovation by creating a better environment for problem-solving.

    By joining AND, we’ll provide :

  • Opportunities to work on projects with big clients and the chance to produce meaningful work that makes a difference to people’s lives.
  • A “Blended Working” model, meaning you will be able to work in a range of locations from; your home, in your clubhouse, on a client, as well as just a change of scenery.
  • A dedicated career scrum team, designed to help you reach your career goals and develop the skills you need to be your best self.
  • An annual budget for training and upskilling, including allocated days off so you don’t have to study in your own free time.
  • Monthly and quarterly team socials - on us - ranging from after work drinks, to driving experience days with your fellow club members.
  • A safe environment for you to be yourself and challenge yourself.
  • Equal Opportunities Statement

    At AND Digital we embrace diversity and are committed to equal opportunities. We are actively recruiting for a diverse and inclusive workforce so want to ensure we do everything we can to support your application.

    We want you to feel safe and empowered to let us know if you require any adjustments to be made to your application or interview process so please speak to our recruitment team.
