You will combine architecture ownership with hands-on engineering.\nYou will lead technology migrations (towards Databricks and Microsoft Fabric) and build reusable data products. You will do this as an AI-augmented professional, using AI-driven development lifecycles and spec-driven approaches to deliver faster and with higher quality.\nWhat you do\nDefine and maintain the target data architecture of the platform (ingestion, Data Vault, consumption layers), ensuring solutions are portable across Synapse, Databricks and Fabric, based on open formats such as Delta Lake.\nLead and execute technology migrations between data platforms and engines. This includes assessing the current state, designing the target, defining the migration approach, and validating data parity.\nDesign, build and publish data products with clear ownership, data contracts, quality rules, documentation and SLAs, ready for consumption by business and analytics teams.\nDevelop data pipelines and transformations with dbt, PySpark and T-SQL on Azure Synapse (Spark Pools and Dedicated SQL Pools) and Databricks, applying Git-based CI/CD practices.\nApply AI-assisted development across the delivery lifecycle (AI-SDLC): specification, design, coding, testing, documentation and code review. Use spec-driven development (SDD) frameworks so that specifications act as the source of truth for AI-generated work.\nReview and validate deliveries from external providers (code quality, data contracts, DDL, performance and security) and decide whether they are ready for production.\nDrive FinOps practices (monitoring and optimizing’s consumption), and advise Operating Entities on architecture, naming, security and data governance (access control, PII masking, data contracts).\nWhat you bring\nSolid hands-on experience with Azure data services, especially Azure Synapse Analytics (Spark Pools, Dedicated SQL Pools, pipelines) and Azure Data Lake Storage.\nStrong data engineering skills in SQL (T-SQL) and Python/PySpark, plus experience with dbt and Git-based CI/CD (GitHub, pull requests, automated testing).\nExperience in data architecture and modelling (Data Vault 2.0, dimensional modelling, lakehouse patterns on Delta Lake) and in delivering data products and platform migrations.\nWorking knowledge of Databricks (Unity Catalog, workflows, cost model); knowledge of the Microsoft Fabric ecosystem (OneLake, Lakehouse, Direct Lake) and of FinOps principles is a strong plus.\nProven practical use of AI technologies in day-to-day work, with knowledge of AI-SDLC and of spec-driven development (SDD) frameworks (e.g. GitHub Spec Kit, or similar) and AI coding assistants (e.g. Claude Code, GitHub Copilot). You know how to prompt, supervise and validate AI output critically.\n5+ years in data engineering and/or data architecture roles, with at least 2 years designing solutions on Azure. Experience working in agile teams (Scrum/Kanban), with hands-on use of Jira to manage epics, user stories, sprints and backlogs.\nBachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Software or Data Engineering, Mathematics, or a related field (or equivalent professional experience).\nFamiliarity with Machine learning is a strong advantage.\nWhat we offer\nWe offer a hybrid work model which recognizes the value of striking a balance between in-person collaboration and remote working incl. up to 25 days per year working from abroad.\nWe believe in rewarding performance and our compensation and benefits package includes a company bonus scheme, pension, employee shares program and multiple employee discounts (details vary by location).\nFrom career development and digital learning programs to international career mobility, we offer lifelong learning for our employees worldwide and an environment where innovation, delivery and empowerment are fostered.\nFlexible working, health and wellbeing offers (including healthcare and parental leave benefits) support to balance family and career and help our people return from career breaks with experience that nothing else can teach.\n About Allianz Technology\nWith its headquarters in Munich, Germany, Allianz Technology is Allianz's global IT service provider and delivers IT solutions that drive the group's digitalization.
