Job Description: • Azure-Specific Data Services: Proficiency in the core Azure ecosystem is paramount. This includes services like Azure Data Factory for building and orchestrating data pipelines, Azure Databricks for big data processing with Apache Spark, and Azure Synapse Analytics for data warehousing and analytics. A strong understanding of Azure storage options, such as Azure Data Lake Storage and Azure SQL Database, is also essential. • ETL/ELT and Data Pipeline Development: A fundamental skill is the ability to design, build, and maintain data pipelines. This involves using ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) or ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) processes to move data from various sources, clean and transform it, and then load it into a data store for analysis. • Programming and Scripting: A solid grasp of programming is crucial. SQL is a must-have for querying and manipulating data in relational databases. Python is the most widely used programming language for data engineering due to its versatility and extensive libraries (like Pandas and NumPy) for data manipulation. • Knowledge of other languages like Scala or Java can also be beneficial, especially for working with big data technologies like Apache Spark. • Data Modeling and Warehousing: Data engineers need to understand how to design efficient data structures. This includes knowledge of data modeling concepts like star schemas and normalization, as well as experience with data warehousing principles to create a foundation for effective business intelligence and analytics.
