Microsoft Fabric Data Engineer

Data EngineerJob Type: RegularWork Location: Atlanta, GA 30320Overview:You'll Build the Engine Behind Client RevenueMost data engineers build internal tools. You'll build something that shows up directly in a client's boardroom.Our Microsoft Fabric platform is the backbone of a growing Analytics & BI practice — one where the dashboards you engineer drive executive decisions, surface revenue opportunities, and set the standard for what our clients expect from data. When you optimize a pipeline or redesign a semantic model, the impact isn't abstract. It shows up in renewal conversations and client satisfaction scores.We're scaling fast, and we need an engineer who thinks in systems, communicates with clarity, and treats client SLAs the way others treat deadlines — as non-negotiable.What We OfferCompetitive salary, paid weeklyNext day pay on demand with DailyPayHealth/Dental/Vision benefits401K Program with matchingPaid Time OffPaid HolidaysScholarship opportunities for employees and direct family membersEmployee Assistance ProgramLeadership Development ProgramJob Description:Build Scalable Client Data Pipelines for scale from day oneDevelop and maintain high-quality, reliable Microsoft Fabric pipelines and notebooks that directly support analytics and reportingImplement incremental loads, watermarking, and merging logicDesign ingestion patterns that support rapid onboarding of new clientsEngineer monitoring and observability to prevent SLA breaches while catching problems before clients doEnsure data quality and reliability across datasetsYour work ensures that data is accurate, timely, and trusted by stakeholdersDeliver High-Quality Data Models for growthImplement Medallion architecture (Bronze/Silver/Gold)Design and implement dimensional models for revenue-focused analytics that meet reporting and analytics needsDesign reusable, scalable data structures across multiple clientsDesign data structures that don't become someone else's technical debtOptimize partitioning and storage for predictable performanceMaintain consistency and usability across datasetsOptimize Power BI Performance that Clients Actually NoticeImprove Direct Lake and semantic model performance in Power BIReduce refresh times and memory usagePartner with BI developers to maintain high modeling standardsImprove Platform Efficiency That Protects MarginMonitor Fabric capacity usage and workload patternsOptimize refresh strategies and reduce compute spikesContribute to GitHub workflow and future dbt integration roadmapCollaborate Across TeamsWork closely with BI developers, analysts, and stakeholdersTranslate requirements into well-defined features and user storiesParticipate actively in agile ceremoniesExplain technical decisions, obtain prioritization and approval before executionDo light documentation to build institutional memoryExecute with ExcellenceFollow SDLC practices, including Git, CI/CD, and code reviewsDeliver work iteratively with high quality and predictabilityShip frequently in small batch sizesStandout FactorsThis isn't a maintenance role or a "keep the lights on" position. You'll be shaping architecture in a platform that's still being built — which means your opinions matter, your patterns get adopted, and your fingerprints end up on something that scales.As the client base grows, so does the scope.
