## Description

We are looking for senior external Data Engineers / Architects to help build the first reusable data products on a new federated Microsoft Fabric data platform. The role is hands-on: the selected profiles will implement end-to-end products from ingestion through medallion layers to a documented gold layer that business users, reports, applications, and AI agents can consume. The initial product focus is Salesforce CRM data, with SAP S/4HANA ERP knowledge useful as an additional advantage. The platform is still being built, so the engagement combines delivery of concrete use cases with setting patterns that future domains can reuse. Data product and pipeline engineering - Build ingestion from customer data sources (i.e. Salesforce) into Data Platform based on Microsoft Fabric as the primary source focus, ncluding full and incremental loads with stable delta logic over time. DEKRA Compose Job description - Senior Data Engineer / Architect 1- Implement data source
ingestion, including source data contract validation, using our microservice-based scalable Data Core ingestion framework. - Implement medallion layers in Fabric: raw data in bronze, cleansed and conformed data in silver, and business-ready reusable data products in gold. - Move business logic that currently sits in reports or the data warehouse into the data product together with business and data analysts. - Design and implement analytical models that support reporting, downstream consumption, and future domain reuse, with SAP S/4HANA integration knowledge helpful where relevant. Quality, operations, and delivery - Implement data contracts as executable checks so deliveries either meet agreed schema and quality expectations or fail visibly. - Set up orchestration, scheduling, monitoring, retries, and operational handling for the pipelines owned by the team. - Work with Git and deployment pipelines across development, test, and production environments. - Document
implementations so the platform team and business domains can operate and extend them after handover.
