• Experience with engineering, storage and analytics services in the cloud, including Azure Data Factory, SQL Server Integration Services, Databricks, SQL Server, Data Lake Storage, Azure Machine Learning and ArcGIS Enterprise
• Familiarity with DevOps and Visual Studio, and with sourcing data from systems such as Oracle, Ingres and SQL Server (knowledge of Data Lakes and Lakehouses is highly regarded)
• Relevant qualifications or training in data engineering techniques, and around five years' experience as a data engineer
• Clear communication, relationship-building and negotiation skills, with a collaborative, adaptable approach
