• Perform migration and modernization of legacy paginated reports (e.g., SSRS RDL files) to the Power BI Service, ensuring functional equivalency and performance optimization.
• Integrate paginated reports with Power BI datasets, SQL Server data sources, and Power BI Premium capacity environments.
• Maintain accurate documentation of data sources, RDL configurations, and report publishing pipelines.
