The position suits experienced Azure data engineers comfortable with client-facing delivery and a coach-and-contribute model. This is a pipeline/future-opportunity posting, not an immediate opening, and may be filled as W2 or 1099 contract depending on engagement.

Why we read it this way (8)
This is a pipeline/talent-pool posting — no immediate opening exists. Trility is building a bench of candidates for future Microsoft Fabric client engagements.
Employment type is explicitly listed as 'W2 or 1099,' which maps to Contract; project length and schedule may vary per engagement.
The 5+ years requirement is stated against 'Azure Data Services, including Microsoft Fabric, Azure Data Factory, Databricks, or Synapse' — treated as the overall role-level experience gate. Azure Data Factory is listed as the primary named tool in that group, with Databricks and Synapse as named alternatives.
OneLake appears in the responsibilities section as part of the lakehouse implementation work rather than in the formal requirements block, so it is marked preferred.
The alt SOC (15-1252 Software Developers) reflects that this role involves substantial pipeline and notebook coding, not just architecture; the primary SOC (15-1243 Database Architects) was chosen because lakehouse design, medallion architecture, and data modeling are the dominant deliverables.
W2 hiring is restricted to 21 named US states; 1099/corp-to-corp contractors may have broader geographic flexibility per the posting.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): Medallion architecture.
Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
