5. PRINCIPAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

• Design and build robust, scalable data ingestion pipelines using Microsoft Fabric (Pipelines, Dataflows, Notebooks) to integrate data from Business Applications, databases, files, and APIs into the Lakehouse.
• Perform deep source system analysis to define ingestion strategies that ensure data reliability, consistency, and observability, while applying metadata-driven design for automation.
• Develop and maintain Delta Tables using the medallion architecture (bronze/silver/gold) to systematically cleanse, enrich, and standardize data for downstream consumption.
• Implement comprehensive data quality checks (nulls, duplicates, schema drift, outliers, SCD types) and ensure data integrity across all transformation layers in the Lakehouse.
• Apply governance practices including schema versioning, data lineage tracking, role-based access control (RBAC), and audit trails to ensure compliance, traceability, and secure data access.
• Structure the gold layer and semantic model to support AI/ML use cases, ensuring datasets are enriched, contextualized, and optimized for AI agent consumption.
• Develop and maintain AI-ready run flows and access patterns to enable seamless integration between the Lakehouse and AI agents for tasks such as prediction, summarization, and decision automation.
• Leverage DevOps best practices for pipeline versioning, testing, deployment, and monitoring; proactively detect and resolve data integration and processing issues.

Knowledge, Skills, Abilities & Competencies

• Hands-on experience in designing and implementing data platforms, including data warehouses, lakehouse, and modern ETL/ELT pipelines.

• Working knowledge of Microsoft Fabric (Pipelines, Dataflows Gen2, Notebooks, Lakehouse) is strongly preferred.

• Proven ability to build, deploy, and troubleshoot highly reliable, distributed data pipelines integrating structured and unstructured data from various internal systems and external sources.

• Working knowledge of the medallion architecture (bronze/silver/gold) and Delta Lake / OneLake concepts; prior project experience implementing this pattern is highly desirable.

• Solid understanding of data lakehouse patterns and Delta Lake / OneLake concepts, with the ability to structure data models that are AI/ML-ready and support semantic modeling.
• Solid understanding of SQL, relational and dimensional data modeling, query tuning, and basic performance optimization.
• Familiarity with data quality concepts — null/duplicate/schema-drift checks, basic SCD handling, and validation rules in transformation pipelines.
• Familiarity with Git, branching strategies, and CI/CD concepts in a data engineering context (Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions).
• Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to articulate complex data engineering solutions to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, and to lead cross-functional initiatives.
