Data Platform Engineer (Microsoft Fabric & Python)
12 Month Contract | Inside IR35 | £480pd-£520pd
We're seeking a hands-on Data Platform Engineer to own and evolve our Microsoft Fabric-based Enterprise Data & Analytics Platform (EDAP).

Key Responsibilities
• Development, support and enhancement of EDAP on Microsoft Fabric.
• Design and build scalable data pipelines and integrations.
• Set engineering standards and best practices.
• Mentor and upskill the BI team in Fabric, Python and Spark.
• Work with stakeholders to deliver robust, business-focused data solutions.

• Microsoft Fabric (hands-on platform engineering experience).
• Python.
• Apache Spark.
• Azure Data Factory, Databricks and Data Lake.
• Enterprise-scale data platform design and delivery.
• Experience coaching, mentoring and leading technical teams.
Important
This is not a Power BI reporting role. The client requires a strong data engineering leader with proven Fabric and Python expertise who can both deliver technically and elevate team capability.
