Full description
Assignment context
As part of the evolution of a Data platform within a banking environment, we are looking for an experienced Data Engineer with Databricks and Microsoft Fabric .
The assignment mainly consists of extending the functional coverage of an existing Data platform by integrating new datasets according to already-defined patterns and standards.

Main responsibilities
- Integrate new datasets into the existing Data platform.
- Configure the new flows according to the established patterns and standards.
- Develop and adapt processing using PySpark and SQL .
- Correctly define the modeling of the new data: dimensions, facts, granularity, business keys, SCD1/SCD2, snapshots.
- Configure datasets through a declarative approach, particularly via TOML .
- Validate the data according to existing quality rules and contracts.
- Analyze and correct anomalies encountered during the integration of new sources.
- Deploy the changes through Azure DevOps CI/CD pipelines .
- Diagnose and resolve failures related to quality gates and the various promotion stages.
- Understand the source banking data from a functional perspective to ensure its proper integration into the platform.

Questions about this listing
What salary does Talan offer for this role?
The original listing does not state a salary. Our estimate for this role and sector in Genève is CHF 63'000 - 107'500 gross per year — an estimate, not a figure communicated by Talan. The calculator on this site converts a gross salary into your actual net take-home once cross-border tax and social contributions are applied.
Is this a full-time role, and what type of contract does Talan offer?
This listing is a full-time position. The contract type shown here comes directly from the employer's original posting; always confirm exact hours, notice period and probation length with Talan during the application process, since these details can vary by role even within the same contract category.
Do I need a cross-border work permit for a role in Geneva?
EU/EFTA citizens living in an EU/EFTA state can apply for a G permit and can work anywhere in Switzerland: border zones no longer apply to them, and they must return home at least once a week. The Swiss employer files the request with Canton Geneva's migration office after the contract is signed. Processing times vary by canton, so confirm the specifics with Geneva's cantonal migration office or with HR during the application.
