Required Experience

  • Proven expertise with:
    • Synapse Notebooks
    • Pipeline development
  • Solid Python (data engineering focus) and SQL
  • Experience designing and structuring ETL/data engineering frameworks
  • Ability to work independently without hand-holding
  • Strong Microsoft/Azure background (true specialist)
  • Exposure to Microsoft Fabric components (e.g. Synapse, Data Lake, related services)
