About The Position

Estrada Consulting, Inc. is seeking a hands-on technical lead for a six-month, onsite data engineering engagement at a university advanced materials research center in Clearfield, Utah. The center builds and tests high-temperature carbon fiber composite parts for aerospace. Its 3D printers, ovens, furnaces, microscopes, and mechanical and thermal test machines store data locally on the equipment. The engagement will build a materials database by creating pipelines to extract machine logs, sensor readings, and microscope images, land the data in Azure Blob Storage in an Azure Government account, and stage and model it in Databricks for research analysis. The project lead will plan work with the center's staff, prioritize data sources against the data dictionary, lead weekly partner meetings, and contribute directly to engineering the pipelines and data model. The role also owns security and permissions in the Azure Government environment and prepares the center to operate the system after the engagement through intern mentoring, training, recordings, documentation, and handover. The arrangement is onsite, full time (40 hours per week). The six-month W2 contract may be renewable and is contingent on contract award. The expected start is January 2027. The hourly rate is $65 to $90, depending on experience. U.S. citizenship is required. The candidate's name and resume will be included in ECI's proposal, along with references who can verify data engineering experience.
