Informatica Developer

About Position:

The Informatica Developer role is focused on supporting a strategic migration from Azure Synapse to Microsoft Fabric Warehouse. The individual will be responsible for repointing and validating existing Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services (IICS) mappings while ensuring data integrity, schema compatibility, and functional consistency. This is a precise, validation-heavy role for an engineer who can modernize integration plumbing while preserving existing functional behaviour.

• Role: Informatica Developer - IICS Repointing & Validation
• Location: PAN India
• Experience: 7-10 Years
• Job Type: Full Time Employment

What You'll Do:

• Extract IICS package metadata and group mappings by pattern such as STG to View, STG to SP, SCD1/SCD2, and DIM to TEMP to FACT.
• Tier mappings by complexity to support migration planning and execution.
• Repoint source connections to Azure SQL Managed Instance and update connection objects, secure agent configuration, and parameters.
• Repoint targets from Synapse to Microsoft Fabric Warehouse and update target connections, schema, and table objects against the Fabric Warehouse SQL endpoint.
• Verify table and column parity, map Synapse to Fabric T-SQL data types, and reconcile metadata using INFORMATION_SCHEMA.
• Assess SQL overrides, expression and lookup transformations, and stored-procedure calls against the Fabric T-SQL surface area.
• Fix data-type casts, SCD1/SCD2 logic, and lookup or SQL-override issues without changing business logic.
• Run mappings through IICS and validate connectivity, syntactic execution, and unit testing outcomes.
• Perform row counts, key checks, surrogate-key checks, schema verification, and sample comparisons against the Synapse baseline.
• Log, fix, re-run, and promote objects through to final sign-off using defect management processes.

Expertise You'll Bring:

• Hands-on IICS development and administration experience, including mappings, connections, secure agents, parameters, and the IICS Administrator console.
• Strong understanding of ETL patterns, including SCD Type 1, SCD Type 2, and dimension-then-fact load sequencing.
• Solid T-SQL skills for data-type casting, SQL overrides, lookups, and remediation.
• Working knowledge of Microsoft Fabric Warehouse and Fabric T-SQL surface-area limitations, or strong Synapse/SQL Server background with willingness to ramp up on Fabric.
• Experience with Azure SQL Managed Instance as a source system.
• Proficiency in data reconciliation, including row, key, surrogate-key validation, and sample comparison against a baseline.
• Experience with Azure DevOps (ADO) or Jira for defect tracking and promotion.
• Prior experience on Synapse-to-Fabric or comparable connection-repointing migrations is preferred.
• Familiarity with INFORMATION_SCHEMA-driven metadata reconciliation is preferred.
• Microsoft or Informatica certifications will be an added advantage.

Benefits:

• Competitive salary and benefits package
• Culture focused on talent development with quarterly growth opportunities and company-sponsored higher education and certifications
• Opportunity to work with cutting-edge technologies
• Employee engagement initiatives such as project parties, flexible work hours, and Long Service awards
