The Life & Pensions Data Platform (LPDAP) requires continuous improvement and expansion. To achieve this, we leverage the latest Microsoft technologies, such as Azure Data Factory and Azure Databricks. You will also work extensively with Azure DevOps and Git. Programming is primarily done in Python, Terraform, and Bash.
