• Resolve routine delivery issues independently and escalate complex or high-risk issues to the Seniors in the team.
• Act as a trusted data advisor, clarifying client needs, explaining outputs and delivering practical solutions that support client outcomes, not only task completion.

• Ability to understand and capture data requirements.
• Consistent application of data standards and data engineering best practice.
• Familiarity with the software development lifecycle (SDLC) or Agile delivery practices.
• Hands-on experience with Microsoft Fabric (preferred), SQL Server, SSIS, SSRS and/or Azure Data Factory.
• Exposure to analytical programming languages (e.g. Python, R).
• Relevant Microsoft Fabric or Azure data certifications.
• Sound technical and consulting judgement, with the confidence to seek guidance on complex decisions.
• Client-ready written and verbal communication.
• Collaborative approach to problem-solving and solution design.
• Proactive approach to learning and problem-solving, with a genuine interest in building a career in data solutions.

Why our clients love Novigi:

Novigi moves quickly, thinks sharply, and delivers what’s been agreed. Clients tell us we’re easy to work with because we stay focused on outcomes, cut through complexity, and keep communication open and honest. Behind that simplicity sits a huge depth of industry expertise and serious technical capability, built from years of working across superannuation, data, integration, and complex platforms. Our culture of innovation, collaboration and banter shows up in how we work day to day: teams that slot in seamlessly, challenge constructively, adapt as needs shift, and stay committed to getting the right things done well.

Only those candidates chosen to proceed will be contacted.
