📋 Description

• Design, develop, and operate scalable and maintainable data pipelines in the Azure Databricks environment • Develop all technical artefacts as code, implemented in professional IDEs, with full version control and CI/CD automation • Enable data-driven decision-making in Supply Chain Management (SCM) by ensuring high data availability, quality, and reliability • Implement data products and analytical assets using software engineering principles in close alignment with business domains and functional IT • Apply rigorous software engineering practices such as modular design, test-driven development, and artifact reuse in all implementations • Global delivery footprint; cross-functional data engineering support across SCM domains • Collaboration with business stakeholders, functional IT partners, product owners, architects, ML/AI engineers, and Power BI developers • Agile, product-team structure embedded in an enterprise-scale Azure environment • Design scalable batch and streaming pipelines in Azure Databricks using PySpark and/or Scala • Implement ingestion from structured and semi-structured sources (e.g., SAP, APIs, flat files) • Build bronze/silver/gold data layers following the defined lakehouse layering architecture & governance • Implement use-case driven dimensional models (star/snowflake schema) tailored to SCM needs • Ensure compatibility with reporting tools (e.g., Power BI) via curated data marts and semantic models • Implement enterprise-level data warehouse models (domain-driven 3NF models) for SCM data, closely aligned with data engineers for other business domains • Develop and apply master data management strategies (e.g., Slowly Changing Dimensions) • Develop automated data validation tests using frameworks • Monitor pipeline health, identify anomalies, and implement quality thresholds • Establish data quality transparency by defining and implementing meaningful data quality rules with source system and business stakeholders and implementing related reports • Develop and structure pipelines using modular, reusable code in a professional IDE • Apply test-driven development (TDD) principles with automated unit, integration, and validation tests • Integrate tests into CI/CD pipelines to enable fail-fast deployment strategies • Commit all artifacts to version control with peer review and CI/CD integration • Work closely with Product Owners to refine user stories and define acceptance criteria • Translate business requirements into data contracts and technical specifications • Participate in agile events such as sprint planning, reviews, and retrospectives • Document pipeline logic, data contracts, and technical decisions in markdown or auto-generated docs from code • Align designs with governance and metadata standards (e.g., Unity Catalog) • Track lineage and audit trails through integrated tooling • Profile and tune data transformation performance • Reduce job execution times and optimize cluster resource usage • Refactor legacy pipelines or inefficient transformations to improve scalability

🎯 Requirements

• Degree in Computer Science, Data Engineering, Information Systems, or related discipline. • Certifications in software development and data engineering (e.g., Databricks DE Associate, Azure Data Engineer, or relevant DevOps certifications). • 3–6 years of hands-on experience in data engineering roles in enterprise environments. • Demonstrated experience building production-grade codebases in IDEs, with test coverage and version control. • Proven experience in implementing complex data pipelines and contributing to full lifecycle data projects (development to deployment). • Experience in at least one business domain: SCM or a comparable field. • Not required; however, experience mentoring junior developers or leading implementation workstreams is a plus. • Experience working in international teams across multiple time zones and cultures, preferably with teams in India, Germany, and the Philippines.
