Senior Data Engineer – Microsoft Fabric (m / f / d)

Shopware is a leading ecommerce system that enables companies worldwide to scale quickly and efficiently in digital commerce. As a trendsetting open-source solution , Shopware is already used by some of the largest European brands, retailers, and manufacturers in the B2C and B2B industries.

If you want to take technical ownership of a modern data platform and shape how data is modeled, tested, deployed, and consumed across an organization, this role is for you. Join us and lead the next stage of our BI and data platform evolution on Microsoft Fabric .

As a Senior Data Engineer , you will be the technical owner of our data platform within the Business Intelligence team. You work closely with Data Analysts together to enable data-driven working across the organisation.

In this position, you'll work in a hybrid setup – combining remote work within Germany with regular on-site presence at our office in Schöppingen. We’ll find a setup that suits both you and the team.

You define and drive the engineering strategy for our modern data platform, ensuring that architectural decisions align with business goals and future growth.

You finalize the ongoing migration from our legacy on-premise MySQL data warehouse to a modern, cloud-based platform on Microsoft Fabric and drive the next phase of platform evolution.

You design and maintain robust data architectures combining lakehouse concepts with classical data warehousing (star / snowflake schemas).

You develop and operate ETL / ELT pipelines using SQL, Python, and Fabric Data Pipelines.

You establish standards for data modeling, testing, deployment, and documentation.

You build CI / CD pipelines with automated tests and deployments , using GitHub as the central version control platform.

You work closely with analysts to provide stable semantic models as the foundation for Power BI and self-service analytics.

You act as the primary technical contact for data engineering topics and make architectural decisions in cross-functional projects.

Regular team updates help you share knowledge, promote transparency, and continuously improve our data platform.

This is what you’ll bring to the table :

With several years of experience in data engineering and data warehousing , ideally in cloud environments , you bring the technical foundation to design scalable architectures.

Your strong command of SQL and Python enables you to build and optimize efficient data pipelines.

A deep understanding of modern data architectures helps you see the bigger picture and design sustainable solutions.

You have interest or first-hand experience with Microsoft Fabric or related Azure services and are eager to apply this knowledge.

Hands-on experience with CI / CD, DevOps practices, and Git / GitHub workflows .

A structured, independent working style and the confidence to own technical decisions .

You combine communication skills with team spirit and enjoy sharing your knowledge openly.

Fluency in English (C1) allows you to collaborate effectively across teams. German is a significant advantage, but it is not mandatory.

What this role is – and what it is not

This role is not a pure BI or reporting role. It is about owning the data platform, defining standards, automating everything that can be automated, and enabling others to work independently on a reliable foundation.

This is what we offer you :

Company Culture : Open culture with flat hierarchies, where individual initiative is encouraged.

Employment Contracts : Permanent positions that offer long-term security.

Flexibility : Flexible working hours and options for mobile work and full-remote contracts.

Equipment : Freedom to choose your preferred work hardware.

Onboarding : Well-structured onboarding with support from a personal "buddy."
