Design, build, deploy, and maintain Fabric solutions including data ingestion pipelines, transformations, semantic models, and reporting layers
Develop and optimize data pipelines and orchestration workflows to improve performance, reliability, and cost efficiency
Implement infrastructure-as-code (IaC) and automation to enable repeatable deployment of Fabric components and supporting services
Contribute to Agile development practices by designing, testing, debugging, and documenting data engineering and platform solutions
Make technical decisions on architecture design, integration patterns, and data modeling approaches, while identifying risks and resource requirements
Manage and support production operations, including monitoring, performance tuning, troubleshooting, and incident response for Fabric workloads
Enforce enterprise data governance, security, and compliance standards (e.g., RBAC, data lineage, sensitivity labels, and access controls)
Drive data platform integration across systems, including cloud services, data sources, and downstream applications
Recommend solutions to optimize platform performance, cost, and scalability while improving data quality and operational efficiency
Collaborate with data engineering, analytics, cybersecurity, and platform teams to resolve issues and deliver secure, high-quality data solutions
Interact with internal customers, business stakeholders, and technology vendors (including Microsoft) to deliver and support analytics capabilities
Required Qualifications:
