Key Responsibilities
- Build, maintain and optimise data pipelines and ingestion processes
- Use Python to transform, process and manipulate data
- Write complex, efficient SQL queries and procedures
- Develop solutions increasingly using Python notebooks
- Build ETL and ELT processes across multiple data sources

- Transform transactional data into structures suitable for analytics and reporting
- Work with Microsoft Fabric and wider Azure data technologies
- Monitor pipelines and resolve data quality, reliability and performance issues
- Collaborate with Analytics, Data Science and business teams to deliver practical engineering solutions
