Job at Barclays in Glasgow, Glasgow City

```html

Barclays is seeking a highly skilled Senior AWS Data Platform Engineer to join their dynamic technology team in Glasgow.

This is an exceptional opportunity for a seasoned professional to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of Barclays' data infrastructure. You'll be instrumental in building a robust and sustainable data platform that underpins multiple business channels. Barclays is currently navigating an exciting period of transformation, with strategic programs focused on re-architecting services and modernizing development practices to align with agile methodologies and future-proofing their technology landscape.

Key Advantages for Candidates:

  • Impactful Contribution: You will be at the forefront of building and enhancing a critical data platform, directly influencing the technological capabilities and strategic direction of a leading financial institution.
  • Modern Technology Stack: This role offers hands-on experience with a comprehensive suite of AWS services and cutting-edge big data technologies, providing ample opportunities for professional growth and skill development.
  • Career Progression & Leadership Potential: The "Assistant Vice President Expectations" section clearly outlines pathways for both individual contributors and potential leaders. Whether you aim to deepen your technical expertise as an individual specialist or step into a leadership role, this position offers a defined trajectory.
  • Agile and Transformational Environment: Be part of a team actively engaged in modernizing development practices and re-building services, offering a stimulating and forward-thinking work environment.
  • Financial Services Domain Exposure: Gain valuable experience within the financial services sector, a complex and highly regulated industry, which can significantly enhance your career portfolio.
  • Mentorship and Knowledge Sharing: Opportunities to mentor team members and actively contribute to technical communities foster a culture of continuous learning and collective advancement.

Key Considerations for Your Career Path:

  • Technical Depth Required: A strong foundation in hands-on coding (preferably Python) and extensive experience with a range of AWS services (Lambda, Glue, Step Functions, IAM, Lake Formation, EventBridge, SNS, SQS, EC2, RDS, DynamoDB, Redshift) is essential. Familiarity with Apache Spark for efficient data pipeline construction is also a critical component.
  • Breadth of Skills Valued: While core AWS and Spark skills are paramount, candidates with experience in enterprise-level software development practices (Source Control, Build Tools, TDD, Jenkins), various file formats (JSON, Iceberg, Avro), and streaming technologies (Kafka, MSK, Kinesis) will find additional advantages.
  • Strategic Thinking and Business Acumen: Beyond technical prowess, you will be assessed on your ability to think strategically, understand business objectives, and contribute to risk and controls management.
  • Leadership Development: If you aspire to leadership, the role emphasizes "LEAD" behaviors (Listen, Energise, Align, Develop) and the expectation of coaching, performance appraisal, and fostering a thriving team environment. For individual contributors, the focus is on leading collaborative assignments and driving innovative solutions.
  • Barclays Values and Mindset: Aligning with Barclays' core values of Respect, Integrity, Service, Excellence, and Stewardship, and embracing the "Empower, Challenge, Drive" mindset, will be key to success and integration within the organization.

This role represents a significant opportunity to contribute to a major transformation within a globally recognized financial institution. Candidates who possess a strong blend of technical expertise, a passion for data engineering, and a strategic mindset will find this position highly rewarding and conducive to substantial career growth.
