Onyx-Insight-1
Nottingham, Nottinghamshire
The Role Are you a senior backend engineer who thrives on distributed systems, clean architecture, and complex data problems? At ONYX Insight, we're looking for a Senior Software Developer (Contractor) to make an immediate impact on our core platform, a sophisticated distributed system processing data from wind turbines around the world. This is not a typical SaaS CRUD role. You'll work across a distributed architecture including asynchronous messaging, worker processes, and data ingestion pipelines. Frontend exposure is a bonus, not a requirement. Key Responsibilities Backend Delivery: Implement robust, well tested C# .NET services following clean architecture principles - domain logic, data access, messaging, and background processing. Distributed Systems: Contribute to service boundary design, asynchronous messaging flows, and worker processes within our modular monolith, with an eye on future decomposition. Data Pipelines: Build and maintain backend ingestion flows that sanitise, standardise, and process high volume sensor data reliably and at scale. Code Quality: Write clean, well tested code with strong unit and integration coverage. You care about correctness, not just delivery. Collaboration & Deployment: Support frontend engineers with clean API contracts, and contribute to our CI/CD pipeline and artifact based deployment process. Ideally, you'll have/be: Deep, commercial C# .NET experience (5+ years) - comfortable with clean architecture, SOLID principles, and building maintainable systems at scale. Solid experience with distributed systems and async patterns - service buses, message queues, background workers, and event driven architecture. You understand the tradeoffs, not just the tooling. Experience building data ingestion or processing pipelines - handling high volume, real world data with a focus on reliability and fault tolerance. Strong PostgreSQL skills - schema design, migrations, and efficient queries against complex data models. A genuine testing culture - unit and integration tests written as standard, with an understanding of what makes a test suite valuable. Familiarity with AWS and how backend services are deployed and monitored in production. Experience with modular or service oriented architectures - you appreciate well defined boundaries and can work pragmatically within a monorepo. A contractor mindset: self directed, fast to ramp up, and able to deliver independently - while communicating clearly when things need to be challenged. Some React or TypeScript exposure is useful, but frontend delivery is not an expectation of this role. About ONYX ONYX Insight is a growing technology and engineering organisation in the renewable energy sector. Our vision is to build a more efficient future by becoming the world's most innovative provider of predictive technology solutions.

ONYX Insight is looking for a Senior Data Scientist to join our Advanced Analytics team on a 6 month contract. This role will play a critical part in advancing AI driven solutions for condition monitoring and predictive maintenance across global wind turbine fleets. The Role As a senior member of the team, you will lead the development and delivery of advanced analytics solutions, working at the intersection of data science, engineering, and domain expertise. You will take ownership of high impact modelling initiatives, applying state of the art machine learning and signal processing techniques to complex, real world datasets. You will work with high frequency vibration data, SCADA data, and turbine failure records to build models that directly influence operational decision making for wind farm owners and operators. This is a hands on, delivery focused role with significant autonomy, where you will be expected to drive solutions from concept through to production ready deployment. Key Responsibilities Lead the design, development and optimisation of advanced AI/ML models to detect, diagnose and predict wind turbine failure modes Apply sophisticated signal processing, reliability engineering and statistical techniques to large scale operational datasets Develop probabilistic models to estimate remaining useful life (RUL) and component failure risk Take ownership of end to end model lifecycle, including validation, testing and deployment into production environments Translate complex analytical outputs into clear, commercially relevant insights for engineering and operational stakeholders Mentor and collaborate with data scientists and engineers, promoting best practice in modelling and responsible AI Contribute to the continuous improvement of analytics capabilities, tooling and methodologies within the team About You 5+ years' experience in Data Science, Machine Learning or a related field, with a strong track record of delivering models in production environments Advanced Python skills and deep experience with ML frameworks (scikit learn, TensorFlow, PyTorch) Strong foundation in statistics, probabilistic modelling, and/or signal processing Experience working with complex industrial or time series datasets at scale Demonstrated ability to operate autonomously, prioritise effectively, and deliver against ambiguous or evolving requirements Confident communicator, able to translate complex technical concepts into clear, actionable insights for non technical stakeholders Highly desirable Experience in wind energy, condition monitoring, rotating machinery, or reliability engineering Exposure to cloud based ML deployment and productionisation pipelines ONYX Insight are an equal opportunity employer and value diversity at our company.
