Job Description
We are seeking a senior DevOps professional to assess, design, and help implement a scalable cloud data platform that supports enterprise analytics and upcoming cloud ERP integration. This role will play a critical part in moving the organization from a limited data warehouse model to a modern data lake or lakehouse architecture with appropriate governance, security, and operational rigor.
This is a hands‑on, architecture‑led engagement focused on platform enablement, reliability, and long‑term operational sustainability.
Key responsibilities
- Assess the current data and analytics environment and identify architectural, tooling, and operational gaps
- Design a scalable cloud‑based data platform architecture (data lake / lakehouse patterns) aligned to future ERP and analytics needs
- Recommend and implement DevOps tooling including CI/CD, infrastructure‑as‑code, monitoring, and environment management
- Build and harden data ingestion pipelines supporting batch and near‑real‑time integrations from ERP, SaaS, and third‑party data sources
- Establish platform security, identity, access controls, and key management in partnership with security stakeholders
- Define data platform operating standards including deployment patterns, error handling, and observability
- Support ERP data integration efforts and analytics readiness leading up to and following ERP go‑live
- Partner closely with data engineers, analytics teams, and external vendors to enable downstream consumption
- Produce documentation, runbooks, and knowledge transfer materials to support long‑term internal ownership
Interested candidates should submit resumes to sally.lander@roberthalf(.com).
• Extensive experience in DevOps or cloud platform engineering within data-heavy environments.
• Strong background designing and operating cloud-based data platforms, including experience with Azure and modern analytics ecosystems.
• Hands-on expertise with data ingestion frameworks, integration tooling, and pipeline orchestration.
• Proven ability to build and maintain CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code solutions, and automated environment management.
• Experience applying cloud security, identity governance, and access control best practices across enterprise platforms.
• Ability to guide architecture discussions and convert business objectives into practical technical designs.
• Experience supporting integrations with enterprise systems and software-as-a-service platforms.
• Familiarity with lakehouse concepts, analytics workflows, or modernization-focused transformation initiatives is preferred.
