Senior Data Engineer

ResponsibilitiesThe Data Engineer owns the reliable flow of data from Hexagon's source products into the Octave platform's Microsoft Fabric lakehouse. This role is responsible for building and operating the connectors, pipelines, and staging infrastructure that ensure every downstream capability — from ontological transformation to knowledge graph construction — has high-quality, timely, and trustworthy data to work with. The Data Engineer is the first and most critical link in the platform's data supply chain.Design, build, and operate data integration pipelines connecting Hexagon source products (Sequence/EcoSys, Loop/Smart Materials, Forte 3D, Attune/EAM) to the Fabric lakehouseImplement and maintain database mirroring configurations for SQL Server and Oracle source systems, ensuring near-real-time replication with schema change detectionConfigure and operate Databridge Pro (DBPro) as a middleware integration layer where direct mirroring is not viable — API adapters, event streams, and scheduled extractsEnforce the staging discipline: land data in its original form in the lakehouse Bronze layer before any transformation, minimizing logic in extractors and enabling replayBuild and maintain the change-data-capture (CDC) infrastructure to track record-level changes over time — a prerequisite for temporal queries and the Delivery GenomeOwn pipeline observability: monitoring, alerting, lineage tracking, and data quality checks at ingestion timeCollaborate with the Graph Engineer on schema understanding to ensure ingested data maps cleanly to ontological transformation requirementsWork with the Governance function to implement data classification, access controls, and audit-ready lineage at the pipeline levelContribute to the no-code pipeline capability within Platform Studio's data engineering tool, informing what connectors and patterns should be productizedEducation / Qualifications3+ years in data engineering, with hands-on production experience building and operating ETL/ELT pipelines at scaleStrong proficiency with Microsoft Fabric or Azure Synapse Analytics — Delta Lake, lakehouse architecture, and Spark-based transformationExperience with database mirroring or CDC for SQL Server (e.g. Fabric Database Mirroring, Debezium, SQL Server replication) and OracleHands-on experience with REST API integration and OData/OpenAPI-based data extractionSolid understanding of medallion/lakehouse architecture patterns (Bronze/Silver/Gold or equivalent staging discipline)Experience with pipeline orchestration tools (Azure Data Factory, Fabric Data Workflows, Airflow, or comparable)Proficiency in Python and/or PySpark for transformation logic and notebook-based ETLStrong data quality mindset — schema validation, null handling, deduplication, and monitoring at ingestionFamiliarity with enterprise authentication patterns (OAuth2 client credentials, service principals, managed identities)Preferred:Experience with Databridge Pro or comparable industrial middleware integration productsBackground in capital projects, EPC, or industrial enterprise software data modelsExposure to knowledge graph construction pipelines downstream of lakehouse stagingAbout OctaveOctave provides mission-critical software that empowers organizations to make informed decisions across every stage of the asset lifecycle - Design, Build, Operate and Protect - where performance, safety, and reliability are non-negotiable and failure is not an option.Turning complex operational data into actionable intelligence, Octave connects expertise, real-world conditions and enterprise-scale insight to improve performance, resilience and incident response where it matters most.Octave has more than 7,000 employees in 45 countries.
