experience with integrated cloud factory and synapse-level tools is highly
valued).
- Data Modeling Veteran: Proven ability to author complex
source-to-target mappings and manage sophisticated database schemas.
- Technical Polyglot: Proficiency in SQL and Python for data profiling, reconciliation, and automated validation.
- Hybrid Legacy Experience: Comfort navigating the
transition between on-premise "heritage" systems and
cutting-edge cloud-native environments.
- Communication Pro: Ability to lead architecture

non-technical leaders.
