Job description

About the role

We are seeking a Power BI & Microsoft Fabric Admin to design, establish, and govern our next-generation unified cloud analytics ecosystem. In this strategic technical role, you will define the end-to-end data architecture—transitioning legacy business intelligence environments into a modern, unified Microsoft Fabric and Azure Data infrastructure. You will implement scalable OneLake storage patterns, design enterprise‑grade Semantic Models using Direct Lake and hybrid storage modes, establish automated DevOps/ALM governance, and lead cross‑functional engineering teams in executing secure, high‑performance data visualisations and advanced analytics workloads.

Key Responsibilities

1. Enterprise Fabric & Power BI Solution Architecture

   Unified Lakehouse Architecture: Architect enterprise‑wide Microsoft Fabric capacity strategies (F‑SKUs), designing multi‑workspace tenant topology, OneLake shortcut frameworks, Delta Lake tables, and Lakehouse/Warehouse storage patterns.

   Direct Lake & Semantic Modeling: Design high‑performance, enterprise semantic models using Direct Lake, Hybrid, and Import storage modes, optimizing memory allocation, relationships, and VertiPaq engine compression for billion‑row datasets.

   Platform Modernization: Lead strategic migration roadmaps transitioning legacy SSAS, On‑Premises SQL, Tableau, or Power BI Premium environments into unified Microsoft Fabric workloads.

2. Azure Cloud Integration & Hybrid Infrastructure

   Cloud Networking & Security Isolation: Architect secure cloud connectivity between Azure Data Lake Gen2, Azure Databricks, Azure SQL, and Fabric environments using Azure VNets, Private Endpoints, Private Link, and NSGs.

   Identity & Secrets Management: Define Zero‑Trust authentication architecture integrating Entra ID (Azure AD), Service Principals, Managed Identities, and Azure Key Vault for credential‑free pipeline execution.

   Capacity Sizing & Cost Optimization: Establish enterprise Fabric capacity management, smoothing, and bursting policies to balance interactive user performance with automated ETL/ELT workloads while minimizing cloud spend.

3. Enterprise Governance, Security & Lineage

   Zero‑Trust Security Models: Design fine‑grained security architectures encompassing Row‑Level Security (RLS), Object‑Level Security (OLS), and Fabric OneLake DataAccess Roles across dynamic business groups.

   Data Governance & Purview Integration: Implement end‑to‑end governance frameworks integrated with Microsoft Purview for automated sensitivity labeling, data loss prevention (DLP), compliance auditing, and source‑to‑dashboard data lineage tracking.

   Domain Topology & Center of Excellence (CoE): Establish enterprise BI governance frameworks, defining domain ownership models, workspace lifecycle standards, and reusable template assets for self‑service business analyst teams.

4. CI/CD, DevOps & Automation Architecture

   ALM & CI/CD Pipelines: Architect automated deployment pipelines using Azure DevOps / GitHub Actions, PBIP report formats, Git integration, and Power BI Deployment Pipelines for seamless dev‑test‑prod lifecycle management.

   Programmatic Platform Management: Design enterprise administrative automation workflows utilizing PowerShell, Azure CLI, and Power BI / Fabric REST APIs for capacity monitoring, workspace provisioning, and orphan asset audits.

   Model Orchestration at Scale: Govern semantic models programmatically using XMLA read/write endpoints, Tabular Editor, ALM Toolkit, and the Tabular Object Model (TOM).
