About The Position

We are seeking an Associate Cloud Solutions Architect who has experience supporting the integration of disparate systems, assisting with the design of cloud‑based data flows, and contributing to the centralization of business data in Azure to enable enterprise reporting. This role is well‑suited for an early‑career cloud engineer who has participated in these initiatives under the guidance of senior engineers or architects and is motivated to take greater ownership as they grow.

The ideal candidate has hands‑on experience supporting the development of automated data pipelines, helping implement secure SaaS integrations, and facilitating the implementation of analytics solutions such as Power BI. While this individual may not have independently led these efforts, they understand the underlying concepts and are eager to expand their responsibility and technical depth.

This position requires a foundational understanding of Microsoft 365 E5 services, working knowledge of Azure services, and practical experience with Python, JavaScript, and JSON for building and supporting reliable, scalable, and secure cloud integrations. The successful candidate is curious, coachable, and looking to take the next step in their career by gradually owning more of these processes end‑to‑end.

Requirements

• 5+ years hands-on experience with Microsoft 365 E5, including identity, device, and security policy creation and management.
• Experience with supporting integration of SaaS/business platforms.
• Proficiency in: Python (API integrations, ETL automation, operational tooling)
• Proficiency in: JavaScript (automation, API-layer logic, integration workflows)
• Proficiency in: JSON (API payloads, configuration templates, data interchange)
• Moderate Azure proficiency, including experience with: Azure SQL or similar relational databases
• Moderate Azure proficiency, including experience with: Azure Functions / Logic Apps / Automation
• Moderate Azure proficiency, including experience with: Azure Storage, networking basics, service identities
• Working knowledge of relational database design, indexing, permissions, and query optimization.
• Understanding of data modeling concepts and best practices for reporting performance.

Nice To Haves

• Experience supporting ETL job creation.
• Familiarity with event-driven architectures and API rate limit management.
• Experience with best-practice frameworks such as Zero Trust, cloud governance, and data protection.

Responsibilities

• Partner with IT leadership to support the design, implementation, and progressive ownership of integrations connecting multiple SaaS and business platforms into a centralized, Azure‑based data repository (e.g., Azure SQL, Azure Data Lake, Azure Storage).
• Assist in building and maintaining automated data pipelines and ETL/ELT processes, with the expectation of quickly growing into independently managing these workflows to support enterprise reporting and analytics.
• Support the design and refinement of data models optimized for Power BI consumption, including relationships, normalization, and performance considerations, while developing the skills to eventually own these models end‑to‑end.
• Help ensure integrations adhere to security best practices, including identity management, access controls, and governance standards, learning how to apply these principles independently as responsibility increases.
• Develop and support automation and data orchestration using Python and JavaScript, including scheduled jobs, API‑based integrations, and data transformation scripts, with mentorship and code review from senior team members as you grow toward independent ownership.
• Work with JSON extensively for API payloads, configuration templates, policy definitions, and data interchange, gaining fluency in designing and maintaining structured, reliable integration patterns.
• Contribute to the creation of reusable integration components and internal tooling, initially extending existing frameworks and gradually taking responsibility for designing solutions that reduce manual effort and improve system reliability.
• Follow established version control practices, documentation standards, and coding conventions for all automation artifacts, with the expectation of quickly adopting best practices and maintaining production‑quality code independently.
• Support the troubleshooting of cross‑platform data flow issues, including API errors, authentication challenges, and automation failures, working alongside senior engineers while building the experience to diagnose and resolve issues independently.
• Assist in creating and maintaining standard operating procedures, architectural documentation, and integration runbooks, with the expectation of taking increasing ownership of documentation quality and operational readiness over time.
• Collaborate closely with business stakeholders to help gather data requirements and validate reporting‑ready data sets, developing the communication and analytical skills needed to translate business needs into reliable technical solutions.
• Gradually grow into a mentoring role by sharing knowledge with IT team members on integration techniques, cloud data patterns, and Microsoft 365 best practices as experience and confidence increase.
