- Analyze and convert legacy Oracle SQL queries and stored procedures into optimized Spark SQL implementations for the Databricks ecosystem.
- Transform business logic historically embedded within BIRT reports into reusable data pipelines supporting certified Gold Data Products.
- Develop and maintain the analytics layer within Microsoft Fabric, including:
- Fabric Lakehouse
- OneLake Shortcuts
- Semantic Models
- Data security and access control
- Power BI reports and dashboards
- Establish and promote a modern data architecture that supports reusability, governance, performance, scalability, and standardization of analytical assets.
- Collaborate closely with business and technology stakeholders to ensure functional alignment between existing Guidewire reports and newly developed analytical solutions.
- Support testing, validation, and deployment activities while ensuring data quality and reporting accuracy.
- Contribute to best practices, documentation, and continuous improvement initiatives related to data engineering and analytics delivery.
Required Skills and Experience

Experience with LLM applied to SDLC
- Strong experience with Azure Databricks, Spark SQL, and cloud-native data engineering.
- Experience designing and implementing modern data pipelines and ETL/ELT processes.
- Proficiency in Python and SQL development.
- Experience with Microsoft Fabric, including Lakehouse, Semantic Models, and Power BI.
- Strong understanding of data modeling, analytics architecture, and data governance principles.
- Experience migrating legacy reporting solutions to modern cloud-based analytical platforms.
- Ability to collaborate effectively with business and technical teams in an Agile environment.
- Experience with Guidewire reporting environments is considered a strong asset.
Nice-to-Have
- Experience with Actuate BIRT reporting.
