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. 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.
Role
Microsoft Fabric Developer / Consultant – design, build, and take modern data and analytics solutions into production for our clients. You will work across the full data lifecycle from OneLake and the lakehouse through to Power BI and the insights business users actually act on. This is a client‑facing, advisory, hands‑on delivery role with a consultant mindset.
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 – 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 (e.g., Terraform), 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).
- Understanding of data governance, security, and privacy as first‑class concerns.
- 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 – client‑facing work is often in Finnish.
Nice to Have
- 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).
- 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.
Benefits
- Support for well‑being – comprehensive occupational health and ergonomically designed offices.
- Flex benefit and lunch discount through Epassi; resources budget for well‑being at work.
- Salary model that matches responsibilities and experience; all employees included in the Together bonus (10% of annual operating profit).
- Support and time for development – continuous learning and Greenstep Academy training.
- Career opportunities in a growing family‑owned company; flexible hybrid work model with at least 50% office time.
