Job Specifications

Microsoft Fabric Data Engineer

We’re on the lookout for a hands-on Data Engineer to take ownership of a Microsoft Fabric + OneLake data platform and turn fragmented, unreliable source data into trusted, governed, analytics-ready datasets.

This is a delivery-critical role for someone who enjoys stabilising messy data environments, getting to root cause fast, and building resilient, production-grade pipelines that can withstand frequent upstream change.

What you’ll be doing:

Owning end-to-end pipelines in Microsoft Fabric (ingest → transform → serve) using OneLake
Implementing Medallion architecture (Bronze/Silver/Gold) to deliver curated, trusted datasets
Building and optimising transformations using Advanced SQL plus M-Query / Power Query
Designing scalable semantic models to enable governed self-service analytics
Setting up data quality controls (validations, reconciliations, checks) across all layers
Creating monitoring / alerting / logging to detect issues early and reduce manual fixes
Troubleshooting failures caused by schema drift / source changes and driving resolution with upstream owners
Supporting governance and access controls, including Row-Level Security (RLS), lineage, documentation, and certification

What we need from you (non-negotiables):

4+ years Data Engineering experience, including 1–2+ years hands-on Microsoft Fabric
Real project experience with Fabric + OneLake (not just training or POCs)
Strong experience building production-grade pipelines end to end
Strong SQL plus M-Query / Power Query transformation skills
Proven ability to implement data quality checks and/or monitoring frameworks
Comfortable working in messy data ecosystems with changing/broken upstream sources
A proactive operator: independent, investigative, accountable, and able to drive problems through to closure
Some exposure to data security/access controls, including RLS

Contract Details:

PAYE Contract
Remote – UK Based
Initial 6-12 Months (With Potential Extension)

Please apply for immediate consideration.
