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

• 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 experience designing and implementing ADF pipelines and SSIS packages.
• Strong SQL skills, ideally across both MS SQL and Oracle environments.
• Solid understanding of REST/SOAP APIs, JSON/XML, and data transformation technologies (e.g., 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

• Experience migrating legacy SSIS workloads to ADF in cloud environments.
• Background in education, public sector, or similarly complex organisations.
• Familiarity with systems such as student records, HR, 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.
