• Strong experience in data orchestration, modelling, and integration into web applications.
• Hands-on with Microsoft Fabric (Pipelines, Lakehouse, Warehouses) and Azure services.
• Skilled in SQL (T-SQL preferred) and either Apache Spark or Python for data engineering.
• Experience embedding Power BI dashboards into web applications.
• Familiarity with data governance tools like Microsoft Purview and security best practices.

Experience & Qualifications

• Proven experience in combined full-stack and data engineering roles.
• Proven track record of delivering integrated, data-driven applications.
