Senior Databricks Migration Engineer

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Senior Databricks Migration Engineer based in the United States.

This is a senior data engineering role focused on modernizing legacy data platforms and migrating SQL-centric workloads to the Databricks Lakehouse.

You will lead the technical transformation of legacy SQL Server stored procedures and Azure Data Factory pipelines into scalable, distributed Lakehouse architectures.

The role combines data engineering, cloud architecture, performance optimization, security, governance, and technical leadership.

You will design reusable ETL/ELT frameworks and optimize data models and SQL workloads to deliver reliable, high-performance analytics through Power BI.

A major focus will be establishing secure, cost-efficient, and well-governed Databricks environments using technologies such as Delta Lake and Unity Catalog.

You will also guide internal teams through the migration by leading workshops, pair programming, code reviews, documentation, and knowledge transfer.

This opportunity is well suited to an experienced data engineer who can bridge traditional data warehousing practices with modern Spark-based Lakehouse engineering.
