What You'll Bring
- Experience delivering data engineering solutions within an enterprise or large-scale environment.
- Strong understanding of data engineering principles, including data modelling, ETL/ELT development and pipeline orchestration.
- Experience working with Microsoft Fabric, including Lakehouse, Warehouse, semantic models, notebooks and pipelines.
- Strong SQL and data transformation skills.
- Degree in Data Science, Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics or a related discipline, or equivalent practical experience.
Desirable
- Experience supporting reporting and analytics platforms such as Power BI.
- Knowledge of Medallion Architecture (Bronze, Silver and Gold) and analytical data modelling patterns.
- Understanding of how data platforms support advanced analytics, machine learning and AI use cases.
- Experience working within formal governance, deployment and change management processes.
- Strong stakeholder engagement skills with the ability to work effectively with both technical and non-technical audiences.
