Project Overview

We are seeking an experienced Senior Data Engineer with strong Azure cloud, data engineering, and AI/ML platform development expertise to independently design, develop, and deliver a scalable enterprise-grade data platform.

The project involves building and improving data processing solutions, developing reliable data pipelines, integrating cloud-based services, and preparing data infrastructure to support AI, machine learning, and advanced analytics applications.

This is an independent contract engagement. The selected developer will take end-to-end responsibility for technical execution, from architecture and implementation through testing, documentation, and final delivery.

We are looking for someone who can work autonomously, make sound technical decisions, troubleshoot complex problems, and deliver production-ready solutions.
