About The Position

Data Enablement Engineer supports the onboarding, adoption, and effective use of enterprise data ingestion and transformation platforms. This role helps teams understand how to use approved platform capabilities, follow standard patterns, prepare for onboarding, and access the right support channels. The role is technical in orientation but not primarily a coding role. The associate will work closely with platform engineering, data owners, analysts, data engineers, governance partners, and business stakeholders to convert platform capabilities into clear documentation, training, operating guidance, and adoption support. This role requires practical experience in enterprise technology or data platform environments, strong communication skills, and the ability to bridge technical platform details with user needs.

Requirements

5+ years of experience in enterprise technology, data platforms, systems analysis, platform enablement, data engineering support, analytics enablement, or related roles.
Experience working with enterprise data platforms, data ingestion, data transformation, analytical reporting, or governed data delivery programs.
Working understanding of data lakes/lakehouses, Databricks or similar platforms, cloud storage, metadata, data quality, lineage, access control, and medallion architecture concepts.
Strong ability to translate technical concepts into clear user-facing guidance, documentation, and training materials.
Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to work across technical and non-technical audiences.
Ability to coordinate across platform engineering, data governance, security, operations, business, and analytics stakeholders.
Comfortable supporting technical platform adoption without being expected to own day-to-day coding or application development.

Nice To Haves

Experience with Azure Databricks, ADLS, Unity Catalog, data catalogs, data quality tooling, lineage, or orchestration platforms.
Experience in financial services or regulated enterprise data environments.
Experience creating training materials, user guides, support documentation, or onboarding content.
Bachelor’s degree in Information Systems, Computer Science, Data Science, Engineering, or a related field.

Support functional validation of onboarding flows, training content, and user guidance.
Help teams understand governance-by-design expectations, data classification, access management, lineage, data quality, and audit-related responsibilities.
Work with governance, privacy, security, risk, and architecture partners to ensure enablement content reflects approved enterprise guidance.
Escalate control, support, ownership, or readiness issues that may affect onboarding or platform adoption.
Maintain practical operating guidance so users know where to go for access, support, issue escalation, and platform questions.
Track enablement activities, onboarding progress, documentation usage, user feedback, and recurring support themes.
Prepare concise status updates and insights for senior managers and platform leaders.
Continuously improve guides, checklists, training assets, and stakeholder communications based on feedback and actual platform usage.
