Job description

How would an Anchormen project and your contribution look like?

The

Lead Data Engineer (Azure)

is a dynamic role that puts you in the position of a technical lead responsible for implementing solutions together with a team of engineers and data scientists. In this position you will be working with a focus on Azure and the Data Hub and Applied AI solutions.

After the pre-sales process is finished and architects/consultants have created relevant high level technical designs and defined project deliverables, the building phase of the solution starts. You take the lead in detailed designs and implementation of the project. As a lead, you collaborate with your team of data scientists, engineers, project managers, and sales, making sure business value for clients is always delivered. From a customer perspective, you are the technical point of contact responsible for progress, quality, and content. In addition to technically leading the project, you are still actively programming daily within the team.

The right person for this job has excellent communication skills to lead all the technical aspects of project delivery including presenting technical and business concepts to a variety of client stakeholders. When a customer faces significant issues, you step in to find the cause and suggest a solution. Next to that, you can influence and consult, providing options with pros, cons, and risks, around all key technical decisions during project delivery.

Last but not least, all of the leads love to share their knowledge, so they are usually involved in other tasks such as supporting marketing by preparing events and bootcamps, writing technical blogs, going to conferences, training customers through Academy programs and sharing their knowledge with colleagues in the form of Tech talks or round tables.
