You’ll work end-to-end with modern, cloud-native data engineering practices, creating resilient pipelines and automated validation to reduce manual effort and accelerate reporting and decision-making.

Job Description

• Design, build, and maintain scalable data pipelines (batch and streaming) across ingestion, transformation, and serving layers.
• Develop and optimize data models and ingestion frameworks to consolidate diverse datasets into a unified platform.
• Implement automated data validation checks, monitoring, and troubleshooting routines for production environments.
• Contribute throughout the full data engineering lifecycle: ideation, architecture, requirements, design, estimation, sprint planning, development, testing, documentation, deployment, and operational follow-up.
• Optimize performance and cost-efficiency with a strong focus on maintainability and reusability.
• Collaborate with stakeholders to explain data architectures, trade-offs, and pipeline behavior in a clear and structured way.

Requirements

• Proven experience designing and implementing end-to-end data pipelines (batch and streaming).
• Strong understanding of data engineering best practices, including release processes, quality expectations, data validation, performance optimization, monitoring, and production support.
• Hands-on expertise with Databricks, including Apache Spark, Delta Lake, job orchestration, performance tuning, and environment management.
• Strong knowledge of Microsoft Azure, including services commonly used in data platforms (e.g., Azure Data Lake Storage).
• Solid experience with DevOps ways of working: Git/source control, CI/CD, automated testing, environment promotion, and infrastructure-as-code for data platforms.
• Ability to communicate data solutions clearly to non-technical stakeholders.

Nice to have

• Experience working with lakehouse architecture and related data modeling best practices.
