đź“‹ Description

• Define and own the test strategy for the Azure Databricks data platform. • Design and implement a structured test framework to replace ad-hoc pytest usage, establishing consistent patterns, standards, and reusable components for the team. • Build CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps) that run automated tests and surface data and pipeline issues before they reach production. • Introduce and embed test-driven development (TDD) practices across the engineering team. • Define and implement data quality checks and validation rules across ingestion and transformation stages, using tools such as Soda Data Quality or DQX. • Lead, mentor and set direction for test engineers, reviewing their work and raising testing standards across the platform. • Collaborate with data engineers, architects and platform leads to embed testing early in the development lifecycle. • Produce clear documentation of the test strategy, framework, and standards for ongoing use by the wider engineering team. • Track and report on test coverage, defect trends, and platform quality metrics to programme and technical leads.

🎯 Requirements

• Proven experience defining and delivering a test strategy for a data platform, not just executing pre-defined test cases. • Hands-on experience building test frameworks for Databricks, including writing and structuring pytest-based tests. • Practical experience with test-driven development (TDD) and embedding it within an engineering team. • Experience building or configuring CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps) to run automated tests as part of the delivery pipeline. • Experience leading or mentoring test engineers, with the ability to set standards and raise quality practices across a team. • Strong understanding of data pipeline testing challenges, including data quality, schema validation, and transformation correctness. • Ensure documentation is reviewed and approved by central data platform team per acceptance criteria. • Participate in communities of practice, ceremonies, and approval forums as required.

🏖️ Benefits

• Candidates must be eligible to work with UK Government departments / BPSS.
