About Role:
As a Senior Data Engineer at LexisNexis Intellectual Property (LNIP), you will play a key role in delivering high-quality, scalable data solutions that power our Strategic Data Platform — the backbone for products like PatentSight+ and other analytics offerings.
In this role, you will not only design and implement robust data pipelines but also mentor junior team members, drive engineering best practices, and support the delivery of customer-facing datasets via Databricks, APIs, and event-driven systems.

Key Responsibilities:

+ Lead and participate in technical design discussions, contributing to architectural improvements and long-term data strategy
+ Actively mentor and coach junior engineers, supporting their technical and professional development
+ Collaborate with cross-functional teams to understand business requirements and translate them into technical solutions
+ Conduct peer code reviews, uphold code quality standards, and champion continuous improvement practices
+ Help maintain data quality, reliability, and observability across pipelines
+ Contribute to the team’s agile delivery process and provide input during planning and retrospectives
Requirements:
+ Good experience in data engineering or backend software engineering with a data focus
+ Strong proficiency in Python, PySpark, and working within Databricks environments
+ Hands-on experience designing and delivering data products via REST APIs, event-driven systems, or data sharing platforms like Databricks Delta Sharing
+ Solid understanding of distributed data processing, ETL/ELT workflows, and data lake/lakehouse architectures
+ Experience with cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP) and modern data tooling
+ A track record of mentoring or coaching other engineers
+ Strong communication and collaboration skills, including the ability to explain complex concepts to non-technical stakeholders
+ Familiarity with agile development practices.
Nice to Have:
+ Experience working with patent data, legal data, or other structured open data sources
+ Exposure to tools like Airflow, dbt, or CI/CD pipelines for data workflows
+ Understanding of data governance, quality frameworks, and observability tools
+ Contributions to engineering documentation or internal knowledge sharing
