Senior data engineering experience, delivered directly.
WARD DATA LLC is a solo consulting business led by Jonathan Ward, focused on modern data engineering, SQL Server, Azure, Microsoft Fabric, and reporting enablement.

Clear architecture, practical implementation, and hands-on problem solving.
Technical work is tied to operational outcomes: faster reporting, lower manual effort, more reliable refreshes, and cleaner decision-making data.
Years of SQL Server ownership, performance tuning, production support, and database modernization inform every platform decision.
Fabric, Azure Data Factory, Lakehouse patterns, Spark notebooks, and cloud data architecture are used where they make the system better — not just newer.
You work directly with the person designing, building, troubleshooting, and improving the data platform.
Need cleaner pipelines, better SQL performance, or a clearer path into Fabric?
WARD DATA helps turn scattered systems into reliable data workflows your business can actually use.
