  • Support the migration and modernisation of legacy data systems into Azure and Microsoft Fabric environments.

  • Monitor, troubleshoot, and improve data workflows, implementing automation and error-handling as needed.

  • Produce and maintain technical documentation for data pipelines, architecture, and best practices.

    EXPECTATIONS IN THE ROLE

  • Strong hands-on experience with Microsoft Azure data services (Data Factory, Synapse Analytics, Data Lake, Databricks).

  • Direct experience delivering solutions using Microsoft Fabric. Advanced SQL skills and experience with data modelling, transformation, and integration.

  • Familiarity with data governance, data quality, and compliance frameworks.

  • Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced, client-facing environment.

  • Excellent communication skills, able to translate technical solutions into business value.

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Data Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field preferred.

  • At least 3 years of experience as a Data Engineer, ideally in consulting, professional services, or large enterprise environments.

  • Demonstrable expertise in building data pipelines and cloud data solutions on Azure.

  • Experience with Microsoft Fabric is strongly preferred.

  • Knowledge of Python or other scripting languages is an advantage.

  • Certification in Microsoft Azure Data Engineering or related is a plus.

    This is a Hybrid role and does require candidates to work in central London as well as remotely. We do not sponsor visas so you must be eligible to already work in the UK

Maths for Robotics Jobs: The Only Topics You Actually Need (& How to Learn Them)

If you are applying for robotics jobs in the UK it is easy to assume you need degree level maths across everything. Most roles do not work like that. What hiring managers usually mean by “strong maths” is much more practical: you can move confidently between coordinate frames you understand rotations without getting lost you can reason about kinematics, control, uncertainty & optimisation you can turn that maths into working code in a robotics stack This guide focuses on the only maths topics that consistently show up across common UK roles like Robotics Software Engineer, Controls Engineer, Autonomous Systems Engineer, Perception Engineer, SLAM Engineer, Robotics Research Engineer, Mechatronics Engineer & Robotics Systems Engineer. You will also get a 6 week learning plan, portfolio projects & a resources section so you can learn fast without drowning in theory.

Neurodiversity in Robotics Careers: Turning Different Thinking into a Superpower

Robotics is where software, hardware & the physical world collide. From warehouse automation & surgical robots to drones, cobots & autonomous vehicles, robots must sense, think & act reliably in messy real environments. To build that kind of technology, you need people who think differently. If you live with ADHD, autism or dyslexia, you may have been told your brain is “too distracted”, “too literal” or “too chaotic” for engineering. In reality, many traits that made school or traditional offices hard are exactly what robotics teams need: intense focus on complex systems, pattern-spotting in sensor data, creative problem-solving when hardware misbehaves. This guide is written for neurodivergent job seekers exploring robotics careers in the UK. We’ll cover: What neurodiversity means in a robotics context How ADHD, autism & dyslexia strengths map to key robotics roles Practical workplace adjustments you can ask for under UK law How to talk about your neurodivergence in applications & interviews By the end, you’ll have a clearer sense of where you might thrive in robotics – & how to turn “different thinking” into a professional superpower.

Robotics Hiring Trends 2026: What to Watch Out For (For Job Seekers & Recruiters)

As we move into 2026, the UK robotics jobs market is in a strange but interesting place. On one hand, UK manufacturers, logistics firms and warehouses must automate to stay competitive, tackle labour shortages and meet productivity and net-zero targets. On the other hand, the UK still lags badly behind peers in robot adoption, with relatively low robot density in factories compared with other advanced economies – which is both a challenge and a massive opportunity. The National Robotarium +1 Add in AI, computer vision and edge computing, and you get a robotics landscape that is: More selective in hiring. More focused on real operational outcomes. More integrated with software, data and safety standards. Whether you are a robotics job seeker planning your next move, or a recruiter building automation and robotics teams, this guide explores the key robotics hiring trends for 2026.
