We are looking for a highly skilled Senior Data Platform Engineer to lead the migration of enterprise data platforms from Snowflake to Microsoft Fabric. The ideal candidate should have deep expertise in modern data architectures, cloud-based data platforms, and large-scale migration initiatives. You will be responsible for designing the target Fabric architecture, rebuilding data pipelines, migrating and validating data assets, and ensuring a seamless cutover with minimal business disruption. This role offers an opportunity to work closely with engineering, analytics, BI, and business stakeholders while driving a strategic data modernization program and mentoring other engineers throughout the migration journey.
Role & responsibilities:
Plan & design the migration: inventory Snowflake assets, define Fabric target architecture (OneLake, Lakehouse/Warehouse, Data Factory, workspaces).
Migrate data & pipelines: rebuild ETL/ELT, handle backfill and incremental/CDC loads, refactor Snowflake SQL/tasks into Fabric-native patterns.
Ensure quality & cutover: reconciliation (row counts, metrics, business rules), phased migration waves, parallel run, rollback plans.
Security & governance: move Snowflake RBAC to Entra ID + Fabric permissions; implement lineage/classification (e.g. Purview).
Lead stakeholders: work with engineering, analytics, BI, and business teams; mentor engineers; report progress and risks.
Preferred candidate profile
8+ years in data engineering; 3+ years senior/lead.
Deep Snowflake and hands-on Microsoft Fabric (Data Factory, Lakehouse/Warehouse, OneLake, Notebooks).
Proven large-scale migration experience (not greenfield only).
Strong SQL (Snowflake + T-SQL), CI/CD, data modeling, reconciliation, and stakeholder communication.
