Job summary

Greenstep seeks a skilled Microsoft Fabric Consultant/Developer in Finland to design and deploy modern data and analytics solutions. You will work across the data lifecycle from OneLake to Power BI, in a client-facing capacity within a Nordic team.

You’ll collaborate with data engineers, BI developers, and architects, growing advisory skills while delivering production-ready Fabric projects and governance. Finnish and English required, hybrid office work.

Qualifications

• Several years of hands-on experience in data engineering, BI, or analytics delivery, ideally in a consulting or client-project setting.
• Practical, demonstrable experience with Microsoft Fabric and its core workloads: OneLake, Lakehouse, Warehouse, Data Factory / Data Pipelines, and Synapse Data Engineering.
• Architectural understanding of Microsoft Fabric implementation and design.
• Strong Power BI skills: semantic (tabular) modelling, advanced DAX, Power Query (M), and report/dashboard design, including workspace and deployment management.
• Solid Python/PySpark & SQL experience.
• Sound understanding of data modelling (dimensional/star schema, medallion, and ideally Data Vault) and modern ELT/ETL approaches.
• Familiarity with source‑control‑based development and CI/CD for data workloads (Azure DevOps or GitHub, Fabric deployment pipelines / Git integration).
• An understanding of data governance, security, and privacy as first‑class concerns, not afterthoughts.
• The ability to work independently, take ownership of a deliverable, and drive it to a measurable, production‑ready result.
• Fluent Finnish and working proficiency in English are a must. Client‑facing work is often in Finnish.

Responsibilities

• Design and implement end-to-end data solutions on Microsoft Fabric — ingestion, transformation, storage, modelling, and reporting.
• Build and orchestrate data pipelines using Fabric Data Factory / Data Pipelines and notebooks, moving data reliably from source systems into OneLake.
• Develop lakehouse and warehouse layers following a medallion (bronze/silver/gold) or comparable layered architecture, with attention to partitioning, performance, and cost.
• Model data for analytics and build performant Power BI semantic models, reusable DAX measures, and reports that serve as a trusted single source of truth.
• Implement engineering discipline around your work: version control, CI/CD, automated testing, and monitoring so solutions are maintainable and observable in production.
• Apply data governance, security, and privacy controls (access, classification, lineage) in line with client policy and GDPR.
• Act as a trusted advisor to clients — gather and challenge requirements, run workshops, present solutions clearly to both technical and business stakeholders, and help customers make well-reasoned technology choices.
• Contribute to our internal practice: best-practice patterns, reusable accelerators (Terraform for example), DevOps and governance models, and mentoring of colleagues.

Job description

In Finland / Finnish language required / Consultant / Customer work

Greenstep is a Finland based, family-owned growth company founded in 2010, providing high-quality financial, HR, data & AI, technology, and sustainability services to support our clients’ development and long-term success. Today, we are a community of more than 800 experts across the Nordics and Europe – and growing fast!

We are now looking for a skilled Microsoft Fabric Consultant / Developer to join our team in Finland. We work in a hybrid-mode and spend at least 50% of working time in the office with our colleagues. You’ll be working in collaboration with our Data & Technology experts (~100 ppl).

The Role

We're looking for a Microsoft Fabric Developer / Consultant to design, build, and take modern data and analytics solutions into production for our clients. You'll work across the full data lifecycle from OneLake and the lakehouse through to Power BI and the insights business users actually act on, and you'll do it in a client-facing, advisory capacity.

Microsoft Fabric projects are growing quickly, and we’re strengthening the team that delivers them. You'll join a group of data engineers, BI developers, and architects working closely with clients across the Nordic mid-market and enterprise. Depending on the engagement, you might be the sole technical lead embedded with a customer or one of several specialists on a larger platform build. We support certification, invest in continuous learning (the toolset moves fast), and expect everyone to grow their advisory skills alongside their technical depth.

In practice, you will:

• Design and implement end-to-end data solutions on Microsoft Fabric — ingestion, transformation, storage, modelling, and reporting.
• Build and orchestrate data pipelines using Fabric Data Factory / Data Pipelines and notebooks, moving data reliably from source systems into OneLake.
• Develop lakehouse and warehouse layers following a medallion (bronze/silver/gold) or comparable layered architecture, with attention to partitioning, performance, and cost.
• Model data for analytics and build performant Power BI semantic models, reusable DAX measures, and reports that serve as a trusted single source of truth.
• Implement engineering discipline around your work: version control, CI/CD, automated testing, and monitoring so solutions are maintainable and observable in production.
• Apply data governance, security, and privacy controls (access, classification, lineage) in line with client policy and GDPR.
• Act as a trusted advisor to clients — gather and challenge requirements, run workshops, present solutions clearly to both technical and business stakeholders, and help customers make well-reasoned technology choices.
• Contribute to our internal practice: best-practice patterns, reusable accelerators (Terraform for example), DevOps and governance models, and mentoring of colleagues.

Requirements

• Several years of hands‑on experience in data engineering, BI, or analytics delivery, ideally in a consulting or client‑project setting.
• Practical, demonstrable experience with Microsoft Fabric and its core workloads: OneLake, Lakehouse, Warehouse, Data Factory / Data Pipelines, and Synapse Data Engineering.
• Architectural understanding of Microsoft Fabric implementation and design.
• Strong Power BI skills: semantic (tabular) modelling, advanced DAX, Power Query (M), and report/dashboard design, including workspace and deployment management.
• Solid Python/PySpark & SQL experience.
• Sound understanding of data modelling (dimensional/star schema, medallion, and ideally Data Vault) and modern ELT/ETL approaches.
• Familiarity with source‑control‑based development and CI/CD for data workloads (Azure DevOps or GitHub, Fabric deployment pipelines / Git integration).
• An understanding of data governance, security, and privacy as first‑class concerns, not afterthoughts.
• The ability to work independently, take ownership of a deliverable, and drive it to a measurable, production‑ready result.
• Fluent Finnish and working proficiency in English are a must. Client‑facing work is often in Finnish.

We value how you work with clients as much as what you can build.

• Confidence presenting to and facilitating discussions with non‑technical stakeholders.
• Business understanding: you care about the value a solution delivers, not just its technical elegance.
• Curiosity and a genuine appetite for continuous learning as the Fabric platform evolves.
• Collaborative instincts — sharing knowledge, sparring with colleagues, and raising the team's overall capability.

Nice to have (bonus, not required)

• Broader Azure data ecosystem experience: Azure Data Factory, Synapse, Azure SQL, and especially Azure Databricks (Spark, Delta Lake, MLflow).
• dbt and a modern, modular ELT mindset.
• Real‑Time Intelligence / Eventhouse (KQL), Data Activator, or streaming/event‑driven data experience.
• Microsoft Purview and hands‑on data governance (classification, lineage, sensitivity labels).
• Experience integrating Fabric with the Power Platform, Dynamics 365 Business Central, or enterprise source systems such as SAP (BW / Datasphere).
• Practical use of Copilot and AI‑assisted capabilities in data and analytics development — and interest in the emerging Fabric agentic stack (data agents, Fabric IQ).
• PowerShell for environment automation; paginated reports for operational/pixel‑perfect reporting.

Certifications

• DP-700 — Fabric Data Engineer Associate (our primary target; completed, or a clear motivation to complete it with our support).
• DP-600 — Fabric Analytics Engineer Associate.
• PL-300 — Power BI Data Analyst Associate.

Relevant Azure data certifications (e.g. former DP-203) are also valued.

What are the perks?

Support for your well‑being. For us, everyone's well‑being and well‑being at work are top priorities. Our occupational health is comprehensive, and our offices are ergonomically designed. The Flex benefit and lunch discount offered through Epassi are available to you. However, the number one thing that supports your well‑being at work is a sustainably built resource budget.

A salary model that matches your responsibilities and experience. All Greenstep employees are also included in a Together bonus, through which we share 10% of the annual operating profit among all employees, regardless of role.

Support and time for development and strengthening your skills. At Greenstep, continuous learning is at the core of what we do. Our own Greenstep Academy offers training in various topics almost weekly!

Career opportunities in a growing family‑owned company. We grow organically primarily with a few small exceptions where the culture has been 100% on par with ours. Because, we want to grow in a controlled manner, profitably and without compromising on quality. For us, growth means new opportunities: we can make a more positive impact on society, create new jobs, invest in the development and skills of our personnel, and enable business continuity.

You'll be working in collaboration with our Data & Technology experts (~100 ppl). We’re collaborative, supportive, and we genuinely like sharing knowledge. We also support growth through training/certifications and a strong community‑of‑practice vibe (if that’s your thing).

Since 2010, we have grown to almost 800 people, more than 3000 customers, and we are looking forward to continuing this growth journey! We provide the full spectrum of financial services from accounting to interim CFOs for some of the fastest growing companies in Finland as well as all over the Nordics. Everyone works closely together, meaning you will be working with other CFO’s, Accountants, Payroll Specialists, HR specialists, Systems and Integrations Specialists, but most importantly, with great customers.

We have more than fifteen offices in Finland and you can find Greenstep also in Estonia, Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Netherlands. With our hybrid work model, we are at least 50% of the work time at the office with our colleagues. In this role, you can work from any of our offices in Finland.

We can’t wait to hear from you!
