Senior Data Engineer

Job Requisition ID: 40528

• Help shape and scale Deloitte's Enterprise Data Warehouse platform on Azure, Databricks and dbt, building trusted data foundations for analytics at scale

• Tackle big issues like cyber, trust, resilience and digital transformation

• Mentoring, coaching and leadership programs to help you make an impact that matters

Join our Sydney team in a hybrid Senior Data Engineer role where you'll build the data platform and pipelines that help turn complex enterprise data into trusted, usable insight.

What will your typical day look like?

This role is hands-on and deeply technical. You'll design and build production-grade data pipelines using Databricks and Azure Data Factory, develop robust transformations in dbt, and write performant SQL and Python to support reliable ETL and ELT in a cloud environment.

A big part of the role is making data dependable. That means integrating data across systems through APIs, improving pipeline performance and observability, and solving root-cause issues so analysts and business stakeholders can work from data they trust.

Working closely with engineers, analysts and stakeholders, you'll help lift engineering standards across the platform. You'll contribute to architecture and process improvements, take part in code reviews, and provide guidance to junior engineers while helping the team continuously improve how it builds and delivers.
