• Work with clients and project teams to analyse requirements, solve technical challenges, and contribute to workshops and solution design activities.

• Design, develop, test, and implement data solutions that meet client objectives, delivery requirements, and quality expectations.

• Support business development through proposal contributions, technical solution development, and identifying opportunities for new work.

• Contribute to engagement delivery, financial management, and the development of solution offerings and intellectual property.

• Provide guidance and support to junior team members while continuing to build your expertise across data technologies, delivery methods, and consulting practices.

What we are looking for

• Experience delivering data platform, data engineering, data migration, integration, analytics, or data governance projects within consulting or enterprise environments.

• Experience with modern data and cloud technologies including Microsoft Fabric, Snowflake, Databricks, DBT, Fivetran, Azure, AWS, or similar platforms.

• Understanding of cloud-hosted applications, managed platform services, systems integration, and enterprise technology solutions.

• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills, with the ability to work effectively with clients and project teams.

• Demonstrated ability to manage competing priorities and deliver quality outcomes in a collaborative environment.

• Relevant tertiary qualification, technical certification, or equivalent practical experience.
