Role Overview

The Data Engineer is responsible for designing, implementing, and supporting modern data platforms using Microsoft Fabric and Databricks, with a strong emphasis on lakehouse architecture, analytics engineering, and semantic modeling. This role is client-facing and requires translating business requirements into scalable technical solutions while adhering to data engineering best practices.

You will collaborate with client stakeholders, Collectiv consultants, and cross-functional teams to deliver data platforms that support reporting, advanced analytics, and self-service BI.

Key Responsibilities

Client Delivery & Solution Design

  • Design and implement modern data platforms leveraging Microsoft Fabric (OneLake, Lakehouse, Data Factory, Power BI) and Databricks (Spark, Delta Lake, SQL Warehouses)
  • Build and optimize data ingestion, transformation, and orchestration pipelines using ELT/ETL best practices
  • Develop scalable lakehouse architectures that support analytics, reporting, and downstream data products
  • Translate business and analytical requirements into technical designs and data models

Analytics & BI Enablement

  • Develop and maintain semantic models that enable performant reporting and self-service analytics
  • Partner with analytics and business teams to deliver trusted datasets and dashboards (Power BI or equivalent)
  • Ensure data quality, reliability, and usability across the analytics platform

Engineering Best Practices

  • Write, optimize, and tune SQL and Spark-based transformations for large-scale analytical workloads
  • Apply version control, CI/CD concepts, and code review standards to data engineering workflows
  • Ensure solutions meet quality criteria related to performance, scalability, and maintainability

Consulting & Collaboration

  • Work directly with client stakeholders to gather requirements, communicate technical concepts, and manage expectations
  • Collaborate with project managers, architects, and fellow consultants to align technical delivery with project goals
  • Contribute to internal documentation, reusable patterns, and knowledge sharing across Collectiv

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree from an accredited university
  • 4+ years of experience in data engineering, analytics engineering, or data platform consulting
  • Hands-on experience with Microsoft Fabric and/or Databricks in production environments (experience with both strongly preferred)
  • Strong SQL skills, including performance tuning and optimization
  • Experience designing data models for analytics (star schemas, semantic models, lakehouse patterns)
  • Experience working in cloud data platforms (Azure preferred)
  • Ability to work independently in a client-facing consulting role

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience migrating or modernizing data platforms (e.g., legacy DW to lakehouse)
  • Familiarity with Power BI dataset modeling and performance optimization
  • Experience integrating data platforms with downstream applications or APIs
  • Consulting experience with multiple clients or industries
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • Relevant Azure certifications (e.g., Azure Solutions Architect, Azure Data Engineer), Fabric (DP-600, DP-700) certifications, and Databricks certifications are highly desirable

What Success Looks Like in This Role

  • Clients trust you as a technical advisor for their data platform decisions
  • Delivered solutions are scalable, well-documented, and aligned to best practices
  • Business users are enabled through reliable data models and analytics-ready datasets
  • You actively contribute to Collectiv’s data platform standards and consulting excellence

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
