Interim Data Engineer

Interim | Hybrid (Rotterdam, 2 days per week on-site) | 36 hours per week | 6 months, with extension options up to 2 years

Our client, a major Dutch public transport organisation, is moving its central data and analytics platform from Azure Synapse to Microsoft Fabric. The platform runs on a lakehouse architecture with a medallion structure and Delta Lake, and feeds data products for asset management, HR and finance. You join the Data Office to deliver that migration and drive the next stage of the platform roadmap.

You work alongside the platform's data engineers, the lead data platform engineer, a solution architect, data analysts and data stewards. You own one or more roadmap items end to end, set the standard for engineering quality, and coach a team that is still building its experience on the platform. Start date is as soon as possible and no later than 2 November 2026.

Riverflex was founded in Amsterdam and London in 2018, eventually growing into a global team of consultants united by a mission to help courageous leaders drive transformative change. Today, we offer an integrated service through three service pillars: strategy and transformation consulting that Creates Change, talent services that Build Teams, and business-accelerating products that Augment Intelligence.
