    + Cloud & Infrastructure Support: Deploy, monitor, and maintain data systems in Azure, including integrations with Data Factory, Data Lake, and related services.

    + Application Integration: Develop and maintain data flows across custom-built applications and SaaS platforms to ensure data consistency and usability.

    + Data Governance & Quality: Establish and enforce standards for data quality, security, compliance, and lineage; support development and use of comprehensive semantic models.

    + Cross-Team Collaboration: Partner with business stakeholders, analysts, and data scientists to deliver accessible, reliable data for decision-making.

    + Innovation & Best Practices: Research and recommend adoption of emerging tools (e.g., dbt, Airflow) to strengthen our data ecosystem.
