Senior Data Engineer

Job Summary:
Design and build Renesas's governed enterprise data platform on Azure Databricks, Unity Catalog, and Delta Lake.
A build-and-design role — work upstream with functional teams to shape how data is ingested, modelled, catalogued, and governed.
Blend hands-on data engineering with architecture thinking and SAP/manufacturing domain fluency.
Focus on long-term value: reusable data, consistent standards, and a catalog that scales cleanly Responsibilities:
Design the data catalog with functional teams - domains, schemas, naming, and structure.
Align ingestion strategy per source (CDC vs. file-based
Fivetran / SAP Datasphere / ADF).
Model data to the platform's guiding principles and medallion flow (Landing → Bronze → Silver → Silver Final → Gold).
Build scalable ELT/ETL pipelines on Spark and Delta Lake.
Apply governance by design - Unity Catalog + Entra ID entitlements, group-based grants, standardization.
Handle PII correctly - tag at the edge, classify (Class A/B), mask downstream via ABAC.
Ensure data quality, performance, and security across pipelines.
Drive CI/CD and DevOps practices for pipelines and catalog objects.
Mentor junior engineers and contribute to design reviews and architectural decisions.
