You’ll cover the end-to-end data lifecycle, from building and orchestrating pipelines using Azure Data Factory and Azure Logic Apps, to delivering reliable data integration across Azure services and Snowflake. You’ll also develop and optimise ETL/ELT processes to transform data into analytics-ready structures, and design scalable data models using dbt.

• Developing and maintaining ETL/ELT processes to integrate data from various sources into Azure data services.

• Have proficiency in Python and strong SQL knowledge with experience working with RMDBS.
• Are familiar with and have working knowledge of Azure DevOps for CI/CD processes.
