Data Engineer

What you will do as a Data Engineer

You will design, build and maintain Haskoning’s data engineering layer: the data integration layer that connects internal and external source systems and data consumers. The role focuses on reliable, reusable and governed data pipelines, transformations, harmonisation and published data services/endpoints that enable reporting, analytics, automation, digital twin initiatives and AI use cases across the organisation.

You work closely with the Data Architect, Enterprise Automation, ED&C Applications, Digital & AI, IT Operations & Services, business/CG data owners and analytics teams. You translate data needs into secure, maintainable and well-documented data services, while keeping clear boundaries between data engineering, data ownership, and analytics/reporting responsibilities.

• Build and maintain data pipelines and integration flows that collect, transform, harmonise and distribute data from source systems to data consumers.
• Design, publish and maintain reusable data services/endpoints, including technical data contracts, datasets, APIs or other agreed delivery mechanisms for organisational use.
• Engineer and improve cloud-based data platform components, orchestration, monitoring, logging and deployment routines in line with architecture, security and service management standards.
• Collaborate with the Data Architect and other stakeholders to define integration patterns, data structures, metadata requirements and ownership boundaries for new and existing data flows.
• Operate the data engineering services with clear documentation, incident/change discipline, continuous improvement and measurable reliability of critical data flows.

Scope and mandate:

• operate as the named specialist for the data integration layer and reusable data engineering services within Enterprise IT & Services;
• build, maintain and continuously improve data pipelines, transformations, harmonisation logic, orchestration and published data endpoints;
• support the Data Architect in translating data architecture principles into practical, secure and reusable engineering patterns;
• enable data consumers by providing stable data services that can be used by analytics teams, applications, automation initiatives, digital solutions and AI use cases;
• ensure that data engineering responsibilities are clearly separated from business data ownership, master data management, data governance and analytics/report development.

DWS’s activities are divided across three domains: Enterprise IT & Services, Real Estate & Facility, and Digital & AI. In addition, there is a separate team for information security. The structure of DWS was recently reorganised to allow the three domains to come into their own more effectively. As a result, several new roles have been created, including that of Data Engineer.
