About the Role

On behalf of our client, [Client Company Name], we're hiring a Senior BI Architect to design, govern, and scale their business intelligence ecosystem. You'll own the technical vision for how data is modeled, warehoused, and delivered to the business - turning raw data into trusted, decision-ready insight. This is a high-impact role for someone who thrives at the intersection of data architecture, analytics engineering, and stakeholder strategy.

What You'll Do

* Design and own the enterprise BI architecture, including data warehouse/lakehouse structures, semantic layers, and reporting frameworks
* Define and enforce data modeling standards (dimensional modeling, star/snowflake schemas, medallion architecture) to ensure consistency and performance across BI assets
* Lead the selection, implementation, and governance of BI tools and platforms (e.g., Power BI, Tableau, Looker) and their integration with the broader data stack
* Architect and lead migrations to Microsoft Fabric, including OneLake, lakehouses/warehouses, Data Factory pipelines, and Power BI semantic models
* Design solutions that remain cloud-agnostic where appropriate, ensuring architecture isn't unnecessarily locked to a single vendor and can integrate across AWS, Azure, and GCP data sources
* Partner with data engineering to design scalable, reliable data pipelines that feed BI systems
* Establish data governance practices - access controls, data quality standards, metadata management, and documentation
* Translate business requirements into scalable technical solutions, working closely with analysts, product, and executive stakeholders
* Mentor BI developers and analysts on architecture best practices, performance tuning, and self-service enablement
* Evaluate emerging BI/analytics technologies and make recommendations to keep the architecture future-proof
* Own performance optimization for large-scale dashboards, semantic models, and queries
* Drive self-service analytics adoption through well-governed, reusable data models

What You'll Bring

* 7+ years of experience in business intelligence, data architecture, or analytics engineering, including prior BI development experience
* Proven track record architecting enterprise-scale BI solutions from the ground up
* Hands-on experience leading multiple end-to-end migration projects onto Microsoft Fabric (OneLake, Lakehouse/Warehouse, Data Factory, Power BI semantic models), including planning cutover strategy and minimizing disruption to existing reporting
* Deep expertise in dimensional modeling and modern data warehouse/lakehouse design
* Cloud-agnostic mindset - comfortable architecting solutions that span or move between AWS, Azure, and GCP rather than being tied to a single ecosystem
* Advanced proficiency with Power BI (DAX, semantic modeling) and working knowledge of other major BI platforms (Tableau, Looker)
* Strong SQL skills and familiarity with ELT/ETL tooling (e.g., dbt, Data Factory, Fivetran, Airflow)
* Experience with data governance, security, and role-based access frameworks
* Excellent communication skills - able to translate between technical architecture and business needs
* Experience mentoring or leading technical teams

Nice to Have

* Experience migrating off legacy platforms (e.g., Synapse, SSAS, Snowflake, Redshift, BigQuery) onto Fabric
* Experience with Python or scripting for data automation
* Familiarity with CI/CD for analytics (version-controlled BI development, Fabric deployment pipelines)
* Background in a specific industry vertical (finance, retail, healthcare, SaaS, etc.)
* Relevant certifications (e.g., Microsoft Certified: Fabric Analytics Engineer, Power BI, Snowflake SnowPro, AWS/GCP data certifications)

Senior BI & Data Warehouse Architect

Level: Senior / Principal · 15-25+ years' experience Discipline: Business Intelligence, Data Warehousing & Data Architecture Profile fit: Permanent, interim, or independent consultant

About the Role

We're looking for a senior, hands-on BI & Data Warehouse Architect who can own analytics solutions end-to-end from architecture and data modeling through build, migration, and governance. This is a "player-coach" profile: someone equally comfortable designing a target-state data platform, building the semantic model themselves, and mentoring the developers around them, while acting as translator between business stakeholders and technical delivery.

Key Responsibilities

* Design and own BI/DW architecture from the ground up, spanning on-prem and cloud environments
* Lead dimensional and semantic data modeling (Kimball methodology, star schema, Medallion architecture); maintain data dictionaries and metadata
* Plan and deliver platform migrations - legacy on-prem to cloud, or one BI/reporting toolset to another
* Build and optimize BI solutions, primarily in Power BI (DAX/MDX), alongside SSRS/SSAS or equivalent
* Design and manage ETL/ELT pipelines
* Own data governance, security/permissions, and Master Data Management (MDM) initiatives
* Translate between business requirements and technical delivery
* Lead and mentor junior BI/data team members
* Contribute to BI strategy across one or more concurrent projects or client engagements

Experience

* 15+ years in BI/Data Warehousing/Analytics; strong candidates for this profile often have 20-25 years
* Demonstrated architect-level ownership - has designed and built solutions from scratch, not only maintained existing ones
* A track record spanning legacy on-prem BI (Cognos, Business Objects, SSAS/SSRS/SSIS) through to modern cloud platforms (Azure, Snowflake, Databricks, Fabric) is a strong differentiator
* Has led at least one significant migration (e.g. on-prem → cloud, SAS → Snowflake, QlikView → Power BI, Hadoop → Microsoft stack)
* Consulting, freelance, or multi-client delivery background is a plus
* Experience leading or mentoring a small BI/data team
* Broad industry exposure rather than a single vertical (e.g. retail, banking/finance, insurance, logistics, telecom, real estate)

Technical Skills

* On-prem / legacy BI: SSIS, SSRS, SSAS, MDX, Cognos, Business Objects, SQL Server
* Cloud platforms: Azure (Azure SQL Database, Data Factory, Synapse, Analysis Services), Snowflake, Databricks, Microsoft Fabric
* BI & visualization: Power BI, DAX
* Data modeling: Kimball dimensional modeling, star schema design, Medallion (bronze/silver/gold) architecture
* Metadata & modeling tools: Erwin, Informatica Analyst (or equivalents)
* Governance & ops: Master Data Management, data security/permissions, data dictionaries
* SQL: Advanced

Education & Certifications (preferred, not required)

* Bachelor's degree in Informatics, Computer Science, Information Systems, or related field
* Vendor certifications/badges such as Microsoft Azure Fundamentals, Power Platform Fundamentals, Databricks or Snowflake credentials
* Formal DW training such as Kimball University

Nice to Have

* Experience running an independent BI consultancy or freelance practice
* Proactive, self-directed upskilling on emerging platforms (e.g. lab/sandbox experience with Fabric or Snowflake ahead of production use)
* Technical project management experience

Job Description: Data Principal Architect

The Role

This is an expert/principal-tier consulting position not a hands-off strategy role, but a hands-on leader who sits between the C-suite (CIO, CDO, CMO) and engineering teams. You'll assess a client's existing IT/data landscape, design the future-state data architecture, and personally guide execution of large, high-risk transformations (legacy migrations, platform modernizations). Think: technical architect + trusted advisor + pre-sales technical lead, likely at a strategy/tech consultancy or a vendor's professional services arm, with a strong European (Sweden/EU) compliance angle.

What You'd Actually Be Doing

* Designing enterprise data topologies choosing and implementing Data Mesh (decentralized, domain-owned) vs. Data Fabric (centralized, metadata-driven virtualization) architectures, or a hybrid, based on client context
* Leading legacy-to-cloud migrations moving clients off Hadoop clusters/mainframes/legacy ERPs onto Databricks/Snowflake on Azure, using phased rollouts (assess → dual-run → cutover → optimize) rather than risky "big bang" switchovers
* Building governance & metadata infrastructure data catalogs, lineage tracking, business glossaries (via Unity Catalog, Collibra, or Alation), with federated access control
* Owning compliance-by-design GDPR anonymization, right-to-be-forgotten workflows, data residency/sovereignty within the EU, and increasingly, data quality/governance for the EU AI Act
* Pre-sales and stakeholder translation scoping engagements, diagnosing whether a client has a skills gap vs. a build need, and translating technical tradeoffs (latency, storage cost) into business language for executives
* Staying hands-on writing/reviewing dbt models and SQL, working in proper Git/CI/CD workflows, not just producing PowerPoints

What They're Looking For (Must-Haves)

* Deep, provable experience with Data Mesh and/or Data Fabric architecture design
* Microsoft Azure expertise (this is the primary cloud target)
* Strong hands-on background in Databricks and Snowflake (Delta Lake, warehousing, query optimization)
* dbt + advanced SQL
* Experience with data governance/catalog tooling (Unity Catalog, Collibra, Alation) and lineage
* Solid Git/SDLC discipline - this rules out candidates who've only worked in ad hoc, undocumented environments
* GDPR/data residency/RBAC literacy - critical given the Nordic/EU client base
* Executive communication skills and a genuine "doer-leader" profile (still writes code, not purely strategic)

Nice-to-Haves

Python/Scala/Java/Go, AWS or GCP exposure, Terraform, streaming (Kafka/Event Hubs/Flink), Docker/Kubernetes, and FinOps/cloud cost optimization.
