Senior Data Migration Engineer

Candidate Description

Marked by a decade-plus of hands-on data engineering, this professional excels at orchestrating large-scale ERP and analytics migrations across consulting, manufacturing and public-sector environments. Their breadth spans Azure, AWS and Microsoft Dynamics 365 ecosystems, underpinned by deep capability in SQL Server performance tuning, data warehousing and advanced ETL pipelines. Adept stakeholder engagement with executives and SMEs at organisations such as a Professional Services Firm, an Engineering Group and a Consulting Firm demonstrates a proven ability to translate complex business rules into robust technical solutions.

Their technical acumen is evidenced through expertise in Azure Synapse Analytics, Data Factory, PySpark, SSIS/SSRS/SSAS and Power BI, combined with automation in Python and Power Automate. Key achievements include delivering a fixed-price migration for a Melbourne council within two months, cutting Synapse pipeline runtimes by 30 %, and optimising AWS Redshift workloads for petabyte-scale datasets. Experience spans the full SDLC and Agile delivery, from requirements gathering and data mapping through to validation, reconciliation and go-live support.

A collaborative leader, they have mentored cross-functional teams, interfaced with global stakeholders in the US, UK, Canada and Europe, and repeatedly enhanced in-house migration platforms for scalability and usability. Their adaptability across diverse industries—consulting, automotive, engineering and government—underscores a versatile problem-solver who delivers data-driven value and ensures strategic objectives are met on time and to quality benchmarks.
