Azure Data Engineering & Integration

• Lead the design, development, and implementation of Azure Data Factory pipelines, Azure Logic Apps workflows and related Azure data solutions to meet business requirements.
• Collaborate with business, architecture, and technical teams to translate data requirements into Azure integration deliverables.
• Develop and enforce best practices for data pipeline development, ETL processes, data quality, governance, and documentation.
• Optimize, monitor, and troubleshoot existing pipelines to improve performance, reliability, and maintainability.
• Support integrations across Azure services such as Azure SQL Database, Azure Data Lake Storage, Azure Databricks, and Power BI.

Data Platform Enablement (Azure)

• Coordinate with platform teams to onboard data workloads into approved Azure environments (subscriptions/resource groups), ensuring required standards (naming, tagging, logging) are met.
• Define repeatable environment and deployment patterns for data products (dev/test/prod), including configuration, secrets, and release boundaries for internal teams and vendors.
• Ensure prerequisite platform capabilities are available for data delivery (e.g., access to ADLS, Azure SQL, Databricks work spaces), partnering with owners to provision when needed.
• Apply governance guardrails for data workloads (policies/controls, logging, and cost visibility) and validate that deployments remain compliant over time.
• Monitor and optimize the cost/performance of data services (e.g., ADF, Databricks, storage) using tagging/chargeback practices, budget alerts, and right‑sizing recommendations.

Secure Data Access, Identity & Governance

• Define least‑privilege access patterns for data services (ADF, ADLS, Azure SQL, Databricks) using Entra , managed identities, service principals, and RBAC—then work with administering teams to implement required changes.
• Implement secure secret handling (Key Vault), encryption, and credential rotation approaches for pipelines and integrations.
• Partner with network teams to meet private connectivity requirements (private endpoints, routing, firewall rules) for data sources and targets.
• Ensure data integrations are production‑ready and auditable (logging, lineage/documentation where applicable) and aligned to enterprise security and governance requirements.

Infrastructure Automation & Operations

• Implement Infrastructure‑as‑Code using Terraform and/or Bicep.
• Create and support CI/CD integration for both infrastructure and application or data deployments.
• Set up monitoring, logging, alerting, and basic break‑fix support using Azure‑native tools.
• Support disaster recovery planning and operational readiness for Azure resources and data services.
