You'll have room to influence how the platform is built and operated; not simply maintain existing pipelines. This is a strong fit for an engineer who wants to stay hands-on while taking on broader technical ownership: solving difficult platform problems, establishing reusable engineering practices, mentoring other engineers, and working across architecture, cybersecurity, governance, and application teams. Rackner is building the broader data engineering team across multiple experience levels, so strong candidates may also be considered for the level that best matches their background. What You'll Lead and Build * Lead the design and optimization of enterprise data pipelines and transformation workflows in Microsoft Fabric * Build scalable ETL/ELT solutions across structured and semi-structured data * Configure and support Fabric tenants, workspaces, capacity, security, and environment separation * Implement Bronze, Silver, and Gold medallion architecture patterns * Develop transformation and data-quality processes using SQL, Python, Spark, and PySpark * Establish automated validation, reconciliation, monitoring, and alerting * Build CI/CD and infrastructure-as-code practices for repeatable data-platform deployments * Apply security controls including encryption, RBAC, Microsoft Entra ID, and least-privilege access * Support secure integration across cloud and on-premises enterprise systems * Solve complex pipeline, performance, connectivity, and data-quality problems * Strengthen resilience through rollback, recovery, disaster-recovery, and continuity practices * Create reusable engineering patterns and technical documentation that improve how the broader team works * Partner with data architects, governance, cybersecurity, application, and source-system teams * Mentor Data Engineers and Associate Data Engineers and help raise engineering standards across the program ## Related Videos - [Data Analytics with Microsoft Fabric: End-to-End Use Case with Data Agents](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1547-data-analytics-with-microsoft-fabric-end-to-end-use-case-with-data-agents) - [JavaScript?
