• Participate in code reviews, testing, and deployment activities using Git-based version control.

• Document technical solutions, data dictionaries, and operational procedures clearly.

• Continuously learn and adopt new AI, machine learning, and data engineering tools relevant to the team's Azure-centric stack.

• Support the team's evolving Azure data platform, including the transition toward Microsoft Fabric and Purview-based governance.
