• We are looking for a Senior DataOps Engineer who combines deep database administration expertise with cloud data platform and pipeline engineering skills.
• This role sits on a platform team and requires someone who can own the full data operations stack, from SQL Managed Instance performance troubleshooting and Azure Data Factory pipeline monitoring to Azure infrastructure diagnostics, with minimal direction.
• You will be a critical operational resource and must be comfortable making independent decisions, including during off-hours coverage.
• A core expectation of this role is a relentless focus on identifying manual processes within the data stack and replacing them with reliable, repeatable automation.
• You will be expected to actively inventory manual toil, prioritize it, and ship automation that eliminates it.

• You will be expected to participate in a scheduled off-hours on-call rotation shared across the team, respond to and resolve incidents, failed pipeline runs, and database alerts outside of standard business hours when on-call, and perform planned off-hours maintenance tasks.
• You will produce clear written shift handoff notes and daily operational reports so the next engineer on rotation has full situational awareness.
• You will own day-to-day operations of Azure SQL Managed Instance environments, monitor, triage, and restart Azure Data Factory pipeline runs, manage SSIS package execution and re-runs, support Azure infrastructure operations, validate and test database backups, restores, and job chains, and continuously inventory manual operational tasks across the data stack and prioritize them for automation.
• You will design and implement automation solutions using PowerShell, Python, Azure Automation, Logic Apps, or Azure Functions to eliminate repetitive manual work, build self-healing pipeline patterns in ADF and Azure DevOps, and build and maintain CI/CD pipelines in Azure DevOps for data platform and infrastructure deployments.
• You will participate in regular customer and internal EverOps scrums, diagnose and differentiate between application-layer, data platform, and infrastructure-layer issues, and produce high-quality daily operational reports and documentation.
