Job Description
Overview
We are seeking a Data Engineer with a strong product-oriented mindset and hands-on experience across the Azure data stack, including Microsoft Fabric. This role is ideal for an independent, self-driven engineer who takes ownership of end-to-end data solutions and partners closely with product and business stakeholders.
Key Responsibilities
• Design, build, and maintain scalable data pipelines and platforms using Azure services and Microsoft Fabric
• Own data products end-to-end, from requirements and design through deployment and optimization
• Develop reliable, high-quality datasets to support analytics, reporting, and downstream applications
• Collaborate closely with product managers, analysts, and engineers to translate business needs into data solutions
• Ensure data reliability, performance, security, and governance across platforms
• Identify opportunities to improve data architecture, tooling, and engineering best practices
• Operate with a high degree of autonomy, making technical decisions aligned with product goals
Required Qualifications
• Experience as a Data Engineer working with the Azure data ecosystem
• Hands-on experience with Microsoft Fabric (e.g., Lakehouse, Data Pipelines, Warehouses, or equivalent components)
• Strong understanding of modern data architecture patterns (ELT/ETL, lakehouse, streaming, batch processing)
• Ability to work independently, manage priorities, and deliver without heavy oversight
• Proven experience supporting product-oriented or product-led teams, rather than pure platform or support roles
• Strong problem-solving skills and ownership mentality
Preferred Qualifications
• Experience working in agile or product-driven development environments
• Familiarity with data modeling, performance tuning, and cost optimization in Azure
• Strong communication skills and ability to work cross-functionally
What We’re Looking For
• A self-directed engineer who thrives in ambiguous problem spaces
• Someone who treats data solutions as products, not just pipelines
• A builder who values impact, quality, and long-term maintainability
The pay range that the employer in good faith reasonably expects to pay for this position is $44.87/hour - $70.07/hour. Our benefits include medical, dental, vision and retirement benefits. Applications will be accepted on an ongoing basis.
