Are you an experienced Data Engineer passionate about building modern, scalable data platforms and working with the latest technologies across the Microsoft Fabric ecosystem?


We’re looking for a Senior Microsoft Fabric Data Engineer to join an international technology environment and play a key role in designing, building and optimising enterprise-grade data solutions that support AI, analytics and business intelligence initiatives.


🌍 Working Model: 100% Remote


You’ll work across the full data engineering lifecycle — from ingestion and transformation through to modelling, deployment and production — helping build secure, governed and high-performing data solutions using Microsoft Fabric.


What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Design, build, test, deploy, operate and optimise enterprise data solutions using Microsoft Fabric.
  • Develop robust data ingestion, transformation and orchestration pipelines.
  • Build and maintain Fabric notebooks and pipelines using SQL and PySpark.
  • Design and implement scalable Lakehouse and Data Warehouse solutions.
  • Work with OneLake and define modern data architecture and engineering patterns.
  • Develop dimensional and semantic models for analytics and reporting.
  • Enable analytics and reporting solutions using Power BI and Direct Lake.
  • Implement data quality controls, validation mechanisms and automated testing.
  • Support metadata management, data lineage and governance across the data platform.
  • Design and implement appropriate security and access-control mechanisms.
  • Apply source control, DevOps and CI/CD practices to data engineering solutions.
  • Implement monitoring and continuously improve platform reliability and performance.
  • Perform performance tuning, capacity management and cost optimisation across Fabric workloads.
  • Produce and maintain high-quality technical documentation.
  • Support service transition, production readiness and knowledge transfer.


Beyond Core Data Engineering:

Depending on your experience, you may also contribute to:

  • Microsoft Fabric solution and platform architecture.
  • Fabric administration and capacity management.
  • Advanced analytics engineering and semantic modelling.
  • Security and access-control design.
  • Governance, metadata and lineage management.
  • DevOps, deployment automation and CI/CD strategy.
  • Platform performance and cost optimisation.
  • Data platform migration and modernisation.
  • Troubleshooting and production support.


What We’re Looking For:

  • 5+ years of relevant Data Engineering experience.
  • Strong hands-on experience with Microsoft Fabric or extensive experience across the Microsoft technologies that underpin the Fabric ecosystem.
  • Strong SQL and PySpark development skills.
  • Experience building and orchestrating complex data pipelines.
  • Strong knowledge of Lakehouse and Data Warehouse architectures.
  • Experience with Microsoft Fabric, OneLake and Data Factory.
  • Experience with Fabric Data Engineering / Synapse Spark or comparable Spark-based environments.
  • Experience with Power BI, semantic modelling and Direct Lake.
  • Strong understanding of dimensional data modelling.
  • Experience with data quality, metadata, lineage and governance.
  • Knowledge of security and access-control implementation within modern data platforms.
  • Experience applying Git/source control and CI/CD practices to Data Engineering.
  • Understanding of automated testing, monitoring and production support.
  • Experience with performance, capacity and cost optimisation.
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to collaborate across Data, Analytics, AI, Architecture and Engineering teams.


Strong Microsoft Data Background?

While strong Microsoft Fabric expertise is highly valued, we’re also interested in experienced Data Engineers with deep expertise across the technologies and concepts that form the foundation of the Fabric ecosystem:

Azure Data Factory • Synapse / Spark • PySpark • SQL • OneLake • Lakehouse • Data Warehousing • Power BI • Direct Lake • Semantic Modelling • Data Governance • CI/CD


If you have a strong Microsoft Data Engineering background and want to work at the forefront of Microsoft Fabric, Data and AI in a fully remote environment, we’d like to hear from you
