$148k - $164k1872 Consulting
Salary: $148,000–$164,000 base + bonus A global professional services organization is making a multi-year investment to transform its Data & AI function and become truly data-driven. The firm is building a modern Azure Databricks lakehouse platform from the ground up, backed by strong executive sponsorship and enterprise-wide visibility. The environment prizes engineering discipline, reliability, and collaboration on a fast-growing team. The Senior Data Engineer is the hands-on builder of this new platform.

You'll design and build scalable ETL/ELT pipelines with Python, SQL, and Spark on Azure Databricks, migrate legacy data warehouses into the centralized lakehouse, and mentor junior engineers as an informal technical leader. This is a senior individual contributor role—highly technical, high autonomy, and no people management.
