Responsibilities:

What you will do:
<ul><li>Manage and extend a Microsoft Fabric environment including OLTP SQL Databases, lakehouses, warehouses, data pipelines, notebooks, and dataflows, ensuring reliable scheduled refreshes and data quality across workspaces.</li><li>
Support data flows that underpin internal trading, settlements, and reporting applications.</li><li>
Build and maintain data ingestion pipelines from a wide variety of sources: SFTP feeds, REST APIs, email attachments, flat files, and third-party energy market data vendors.</li><li>
Own the operational reliability of data infrastructure: monitor pipeline health, troubleshoot failures, manage credentials and permissions, and handle workspace administration including item ownership transfers.</li><li>
Develop applications that provide direct transparency into the underlying data that feeds complex analysis.</li><li>
Manage ML training and inference pipelines that influence trading and plant management decisions.</li><li>
Use master data management architectures alongside interactive applications to retain and reinforce critical business knowledge.</li></ul>
Qualifications:

We want you on our team because you&hellip;<ul><li>

Are proficient in SQL and have meaningful experience managing relational databases in production, whether SQL Server, PostgreSQL, or similar.</li><li>
Have worked with a modern cloud data platform such as Microsoft Fabric, Databricks, Snowflake, or Azure Synapse, and understand the patterns of lakehouse and warehouse architectures.</li><li>
Write Python comfortably for data pipeline development, automation, and scripting, and understand how to keep scripts clean, modular, and easy for others to maintain.</li><li>
Have built data ingestion from real-world messy sources: APIs with pagination and rate limits, SFTP servers, email inboxes, inconsistently formatted files.</li><li>
Believe that the best data infrastructure is the kind nobody has to think about because it just works, and you take pride in building systems that are boring in the best sense of the word.</li><li>
Are a strong communicator who can translate between technical implementation and business requirements without losing fidelity in either direction.</li><li>
Have a heavy bias to get to the end state through planning and action. Actions like performing the migration/refactor and dropping dead code and dead datasets.</li></ul>
 Ideally, you have...<ul><li>

Familiarity with energy market data vendors such as Bloomberg, ICE, Platts, NRG Stream, Databento, or similar.</li><li>
Background in finance, gas, or commodities even if not specifically in power markets.</li><li>
A demonstrated habit of building tools, automations, or personal projects at high volume &mdash; we value people who are prolific builders and problem solvers, not just people who have worked on one large system.</li><li>
Active use of AI-assisted development tools and a thoughtful perspective on how to integrate them into a professional workflow responsibly.</li><li>
Personal experience hosting, fine-tuning, or managing language models, or involvement in a technically ambitious personal project involving AI infrastructure.</li><li>
