  • Develop scalable batch and streaming pipelines using Spark, Eventstreams, and real-time ingestion patterns.
  • Build and optimize semantic models for downstream analytics and reporting in Power BI.
  • Apply CI/CD and engineering best practices including version control, automated deployment, testing, and release management for Fabric workloads.
  • Establish and operationalize governance across Fabric using Microsoft Purview, role-based access control, and data lineage.
  • Support testing, performance tuning, and production releases across Fabric workloads.
  • Proactively contribute to creation of presentation materials and client-facing documentation related to data and analytics initiatives.
  • Provide technical leadership and mentorship to junior team members.
What you bring to the role
  • University degree in computer engineering, computer science, mathematics, data science, or related disciplines.
  • 4+ years of professional experience in Data Engineering, Analytics Engineering, Business Intelligence, or a related field.
  • 2+ years of hands-on experience with Microsoft Fabric or Azure Synapse / Azure Data Engineering services.
  • Strong proficiency in SQL and solid understanding of modern data modeling principles and data warehousing concepts.
  • Proficiency in Python (or similar languages) for data processing, automation, and analytics workflows.
  • Hands-on experience with Spark-based data processing and notebook-driven development.
  • Experience with Fabric Lakehouse, Data Warehouse (SQL Endpoint), OneLake, and semantic modeling.
  • Experience supporting data platform modernization and Azure-based migration initiatives.
  • Experience applying CI/CD practices to data and analytics solutions.
  • Strong understanding of data governance, security, and access control within Microsoft ecosystems.
  • Experience collaborating with cross-functional teams to solve complex data challenges.
  • Familiarity with Power BI and downstream analytics enablement.
