The Opportunity

StaffRight Associates is seeking a high-caliber Data Architect & Lead Developer to spearhead a massive cloud transformation and data modernization initiative. This is not a high-level advisory role; we need a technical visionary who thrives in the weeds of complex coding and system design. You will act as the primary architect for a critical migration of legacy infrastructure into a cutting-edge Azure environment, bridging the gap between sophisticated data modeling and hands-on application development. Your work will directly resolve data fragmentation, creating a unified, searchable ecosystem that empowers business intelligence and organizational growth.

What You’ll Do

• Architect and execute a comprehensive migration strategy to transition legacy on-premise systems into a high-performance Azure cloud environment.

• Engineer robust enterprise-level integrations using C# and .NET, ensuring seamless data flow between applications and the centralized data lake.

• Synthesize fragmented data sources into a cohesive Medallion architecture, meticulously refining raw data into enriched, report-ready assets.

• Champion the implementation of Azure Fabric, OneLake, and Databricks, serving as the resident subject matter expert for the broader development team.

• Construct automated data streaming pipelines that aggregate information from numerous disparate databases into a unified Snowflake warehouse.

• Collaborate with cross-functional business stakeholders to identify dark data and integrate it into the searchable data lake for advanced analytics.

• Perform side-by-side technical development with senior engineers, solving complex algorithmic challenges and maintaining a high standard of code quality.

What You Bring

• Deep Technical Roots: You began your career as a C#/.NET developer and have maintained elite-level coding proficiency throughout your progression into architecture.

• Azure Mastery: Comprehensive expertise in the Microsoft Data Warehousing suite, specifically Azure Fabric, Databricks, and Azure Data Factory.

• Data Modeling Excellence: Proven experience implementing Medallion patterns (Bronze/Silver/Gold) and enriching data through intentional, multi-stage processing.

• Warehousing Expertise: Advanced command of Snowflake and experience managing large-scale data migrations.

• Full-Stack Awareness: Strong familiarity with Python for scripting/analysis, GitHub for version control, and Azure DevOps for CI/CD pipelines.

• Communication Clarity: The ability to translate complex technical concepts into actionable insights for non-technical leadership without relying on empty industry jargon.

• Agility: A willingness to wear multiple hats, pivoting effortlessly between high-level architectural design and deep-dive C# development.
