About the role

Senior Data Engineer | Azure & Databricks

Trade legacy maintenance for global architecture and a guaranteed annual raise.

Building data pipelines for international giants isn't just about the scale of the data; it is about the scale of your career. By joining a team that handles massive global projects, you are gaining high-end architectural experience that most local roles simply cannot offer. This puts you in a different league of earning potential and market value.

Badger & Bird Talent is looking for an engineer who wants to stop fighting with old systems and start building modern solutions in a remote‑first environment.

Why this move makes sense for your career

  • Continuous Financial Growth: You gain immediate financial predictability. With scheduled annual increases on your work anniversary and an annual performance bonus, your income grows as you contribute.
  • Paid Upskilling: The company actively invests in your market value. They don't just "support" learning; they sponsor your certifications and pay you a cash bonus when you pass them.
  • Total Autonomy: There is no office requirement. You get to work where you are most productive, allowing you to focus on high‑level engineering without the distraction of a commute.
  • High‑Caliber Environment: You will be working alongside some of the sharpest technical minds in the industry. This means you'll naturally sharpen your own skills and stay ahead of the curve in a competitive market.

The Technical Focus

We are looking for someone who knows their way around Azure and Azure Databricks. If you have a solid handle on Python, SQL, and Spark, and you've built production‑grade data solutions in the cloud, you'll fit right in.
