  • Lead client workshops and translate business needs into technical design
  • Build scalable, secure, high-performance data platforms using the latest Azure services
  • Champion modern architecture patterns, including Medallion Architecture for structured, efficient data lake design
  • Work closely with Architects and Consultants on end-to-end solutions
  • Stay up to date on Microsoft innovations and contribute to knowledge sharing


Ideal Experience

  • Proven track record delivering data solutions in the Azure ecosystem
  • Deep expertise across the Azure Data Platform (Fabric, Synapse, Databricks, Data Lake, Data Factory, Purview, etc.)
  • Strong data pipeline and ETL skills, including data modelling and transformation
  • Experience implementing Medallion Architecture (Bronze, Silver, Gold layers) in lakehouse or Databricks environments
  • Familiarity with DevOps, CI/CD, and agile delivery
  • Azure Data Engineer, Fabric Engineer, or related certifications—or motivation to earn them

  • Up to £75K base salary plus performance bonus
  • Fully remote role with minimal travel expectations
  • Access to cutting-edge tech and enterprise-scale projects
  • Structured learning and career development paths
