The Data Transformation project aims to build an Azure Data Lakehouse. As MNIT continues to modernize its data infrastructure, the need for a scalable, efficient, and compliant solution for data storage, analytics, and federally mandated reporting has become increasingly critical. An Azure Data Lakehouse has an architecture that merges the flexibility o/f a data lake with the structured management of a data warehouse, enabling seamless data integration, advanced analytics, and robust reporting capabilities. The IT Business Liaison will work closely with a product owner and team (consisting of a product owner, two data analysts, and a vendor Azure developer) to successfully deliver the data lake. They will document requirements, perform data mapping, create a data dictionary, capture data rules, and reporting requirements. They will lead the team as an Agile scrum master, perform scrum ceremonies such as daily check-ins, sprint planning, sprint reviews and retrospectives. This position will work with the team to transition the support to MNIT staff.
