Contract Data Engineer - Snowflake to Fabric Migration - Outside IR35
Not another "maintain what's there" contract.
A Manchester business is migrating a live, client-facing analytics platform off Snowflake and onto Microsoft Fabric - and they need someone who's actually done a migration before, not just read about Fabric.
Exact contract duration tbc, but expected to be between 6-9 months (you'll know for sure after the initial scoping phase).
This is a hybrid position, once a week in Manchester.
What you'll be doing
- Starting with a proper scoping phase - the first month is about uncovering the real shape of the work, and contract length will follow from what you find
- Owning the migration approach - schema mapping, reconciliation, cutover planning
- Working with Fabric's Lakehouse/OneLake setup, not just theorising about it
- Handling API-based ingestion where native connectors don't cut it
- Making real architecture calls, largely unsupervised
- Working alongside two junior engineers - some mentoring as you go, and a pair of extra hands for the time-consuming-but-doable work that shouldn't eat your time

- Confidence to own the decisions, not wait to be told
- Comfortable being the senior voice in the room, including some light mentoring of junior team members
If you've done this kind of move before and want to run it, not just support it, then this should be of interest.
