A major public sector organisation is seeking an experienced ADF/SSIS/Azure Integration Developer to support the delivery of a critical programme modernising Legacy integration systems. As part of the central IT team, you'll play a key role in building and supporting scalable solutions using Microsoft Azure technologies.
This role focuses on developing and maintaining integration services using Azure Data Factory (ADF) and SSIS, contributing to a broader shift from on-premise to cloud-native solutions. You'll be working in a collaborative, Agile environment alongside project managers, solution architects, and business stakeholders.
Key Responsibilities
Design and deliver Azure Data Factory solutions from scratch, including architecture design, pipeline creation, dataflows, linked services, triggers, parameters, error handling, and CI/CD deployment, ensuring solutions meet business and technical requirements.
Develop and support enterprise-grade data integration solutions using ADF, SSIS, Azure Logic Apps, and Azure DevOps.
Create modular, parameterised pipelines and reusable components aligned to internal integration frameworks.
Collaborate with technical teams and business stakeholders to define, design, and deliver integration requirements.
Provide ongoing support for existing integrations, resolving incidents and managing change requests.
Contribute to sprint planning, retrospectives, and continuous service improvement initiatives.
Maintain high-quality documentation across all phases of development and support.
Required Skills and Experience
Proven end-to-end Azure Data Factory development experience, including building solutions from the ground up (greenfield), not solely maintaining or enhancing existing pipelines.
Strong SQL skills, ideally across both MS SQL and Oracle environments.
Solid understanding of REST/SOAP APIs, JSON/XML, and data transformation technologies (eg, XSLT).
Experience with Azure Logic Apps, Azure DevOps, and CI/CD pipelines for integration deployments.
Knowledge of secure development practices, including OAuth, HTTPS, and SSL.
Ability to work within Agile and structured delivery frameworks.
Desirable
Background in education, public sector, or similarly complex organisations.
Familiarity with systems such as HR, student records or finance platforms.
ITIL Foundation or Microsoft Azure certifications.
What's on Offer
You'll be part of a forward-looking organisation delivering high-impact digital services. The team operates in a hybrid working model and offers a supportive, professional environment focused on continuous learning and improvement. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys technical ownership and wants to contribute to the transformation of integration services at scale.
