About the Opportunity 
SF Partners are partnering with a leading UK law firm to hire a Data Engineer with Microsoft Fabric experience to support a major data transformation programme. 
 
The business is moving away from SAP BW and building a modern data platform on Microsoft Fabric, and this role will be central to that journey. 
 
This is an opportunity to work hands-on with Fabric in a real enterprise environment - helping shape the platform, pipelines, and reporting layer from the ground up. 
 
The Role 
You'll play a key role in designing and delivering data solutions within Microsoft Fabric, working closely with both technical teams and business stakeholders. 
 
This role is ideal for someone who already has exposure to Fabric (or strong Azure experience with hands-on Fabric work) and wants to deepen their expertise in a growing, high-impact environment. 
 
Key Responsibilities 
Design and build data pipelines within Microsoft Fabric (Data Pipelines, Dataflows, OneLake, Lakehouse) 
Support the migration from SAP BW into a Fabric-based architecture 
Develop and optimise ETL/ELT processes using Fabric and/or Azure Data Factory 
Build and maintain scalable data models to support reporting and analytics 
Contribute to the development of a gold-standard reporting layer (Power BI semantic models) 
Work with stakeholders across Finance, HR, and Commercial teams 
Ensure strong data governance, security, and compliance (GDPR) 
Document processes and support best practice across the data team 
 
What We're Looking For 
Experience working with Microsoft Fabric (essential) 
Strong SQL skills and experience working with large datasets 
Experience building data pipelines and working with lakehouse architectures 
Knowledge of tools such as Azure Data Factory and/or Fabric Data Pipelines 
Experience with Python or PySpark for data transformation 
Understanding of data modelling (dimensional modelling, medallion architecture) 
Strong communication skills and ability to work with non-technical stakeholders 
 
Desirable: 
Experience migrating from legacy systems (e.g. SAP BW) 
Exposure to SAP data (HANA, BW, SuccessFactors, etc.) 
Experience with Power BI and semantic models 
 
Why Apply? 
Work on a high-profile Microsoft Fabric implementation 
Play a key role in a large-scale data migration project 
Gain deeper expertise in one of the fastest-growing data platforms 
Join a collaborative and forward-thinking data team 
Hybrid working and strong benefits package
