Role Overview

We are looking for highly versatile, pragmatic individual to join our AI Strategy & Transformation team as a hands-on engineer who pairs deep Microsoft Access/VBA expertise with strong SQL data engineering. You’ll take day-to-day ownership of a mission-critical Access application, help migrate data and algorithms to SQL Server and Azure Synapse, and supporting other initiatives within that environment.

migrate core data stores and selected algorithms from SharePoint/Access to SQL Server

Responsibilities (Access database)

  • Own day-to-day operations of the Access app (front end + back end): forms, queries, reports, macros, and advanced VBA (class modules, error handling, logging).
  • Diagnose/optimize existing code; refactor for performance and maintainability; reduce technical debt.
  • Manage linked tables (within a SQL database in our Azure environment), implement pass-through queries, and tune for performance.
  • Establish disciplined SDLC for Access: versioning (ACCDE builds), backup/restore, regression testing, change logs, documentation, and release checklists.
  • Improve usability of forms and workflows for content managers.


Responsibilities (

  • Design and implement SQL Server / Azure SQL schemas, indexes, views, stored procedures, and UDFs to replace/augment Access data stores and calculations.
  • Plan and execute migrations of capabilities into SQL Server with reconciliation, validation, and rollback strategies.
  • Build/operate ELT/ETL with Azure Synapse and/or ADF; parameterize/orchestrate, monitor, and alert.
  • Collaborate with analysts/data scientists to deliver high-quality, well-documented datasets for analytics/BI (e.g., Power BI).
  • Contribute to secure data practices (RBAC, secrets management/Key Vault, row-level security where applicable).


Skills/Qualifications (must-have)

  • Microsoft Access expert: complex queries (joins, crosstabs), multi-form architectures, advanced VBA (API/ADO/DAO, performance tuning, robust error handling), pass-through queries, ODBC optimization.
  • SQL expert: strong T-SQL, execution-plan analysis, indexing strategies, window functions, set-based design, stored procedures/UDFs.
  • Data migration experience (SharePoint/Access → SQL Server/Azure SQL) with parity checks and rollback.
  • Engineering discipline: backups, release packaging, documentation, and change control for a business-critical system.
  • Communication: extremely clear written and spoken English in a must.
  • Data capable: strong data/numeracy is very important in order to understand and work with the complex data and algorithms in our environment.



Skills/Qualifications (nice-to-have)

  • Azure Synapse, Azure SQL Database/MI, Azure Data Factory; Azure DevOps/Git; PowerShell for automation.
  • Power BI exposure (datasets/models/DAX basics).
  • Data quality frameworks, metadata/cataloguing (e.g., Purview).
  • Experience with Data Governance (Quality, Lineage, Data dictionary, and Security).
  • Proficiency in programming languages such as Python for data engineering tasks.



  • How You Work

    :
  • Highly organized, self-starting, extremely methodical and conscientious, and able to manage complex projects.
  • Experience supporting and working with cross-functional teams in a dynamic environment.
