• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with Solution Architects, Project Managers, and BI Analysts to align deliverables with client reporting and business logic requirements.

What we’re looking for:

• Strong written and spoken English to collaborate with clients and teams and clearly explain technical concepts.

• Familiarity with data modeling requirements for Microsoft Power BI reporting.
• Availability for a part-time, hourly engagement.

Nice to have:

• Hands-on experience with Microsoft Fabric: OneLake, Lakehouse, Data Factory, and Synapse Data Engineering.
