In this role, you’ll guide clients through the full lifecycle of data platform modernization, designing cloud-native architectures that power advanced analytics and set the stage for generative AI adoption. You’ll partner with data engineers, data scientists, BI teams, and stakeholders to ensure solutions are not only technically sound but also optimized for scalability, governance, and business impact.

Responsibilities

• Design and deliver scalable data solutions covering ingestion, transformation, orchestration, and analytics using Azure Data Factory, Azure Data Lake, Synapse, and Azure Databricks.
• Lead migrations from legacy and proprietary ETL/ELT tools (Informatica, etc.) into modern, cloud-native environments—prioritizing performance, maintainability, and cost efficiency.
• Integrate Gen AI–powered solutions into data platforms, enabling intelligent automation, insights, and new business capabilities.
• Develop prototypes, proofs-of-concept, and solution blueprints to validate architectures and align stakeholders.
• Mentor and lead technical teams across engineering, analytics, and architecture disciplines, fostering a culture of innovation and growth.
• Partner with clients to translate complex business challenges into modern technical strategies.
• Contribute to presales, technical thought leadership, and internal enablement through whitepapers, blogs, and presentations.
• Stay ahead of emerging best practices in Databricks, Azure, Gen AI, and modern data governance.

Required Qualifications

• Strong, hands-on experience with Databricks (Azure preferred), including pipelines, notebooks/jobs, performance optimization, and cluster management.
• Demonstrated experience with data migrations: Informatica, legacy ETL/ELT, or governance modernization (e.g., Unity Catalog).
• Solid foundation in SQL, data modeling, and data warehousing design patterns.
• Strong expertise in Azure data services (Data Factory, Data Lake, Synapse, Azure Storage).
• Experience leading architectural discussions and mentoring cross-disciplinary technical teams.
• Excellent communication skills, able to engage technical and non-technical audiences—including C-suite stakeholders.
• Growth mindset and passion for emerging technologies, particularly AI and cloud-native data strategies.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with CI/CD, Git-based workflows, and infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, ARM, Bicep).
• Prior contributions to presales, technical writing, or community knowledge sharing.
• Background in data governance, security, and FinOps in Azure.
