We are seeking an experienced professional in data management and data platforms, who can collaborate with the client to design a modern and efficient data platform solution tailored to the client’s environment and needs. The architect will implement the practical solution together with the team: starting from data source integrations and going through the necessary processes; the end result will be high-quality data delivered efficiently and easily for reporting, analytics, or other data-driven solutions for the client.

We are looking for a versatile Data Platform Architect who is not afraid of hands-on work. With us, you will work across the entire pipeline, participating in solution and architecture design, developing and implementing data storage and management solutions, and collaborating closely with reporting and analytics experts at the customer interface.

  • Cloud and other infrastructure skills required for designing and implementing data solutions

  • Solid experience in the architecture of data platforms and data warehouses (especially data lake and data lakehouse), as well as their design and implementation

  • Ability to take ownership of existing data solutions and their further development

  • Understanding of the cause-and-effect relationships in data management and data-driven decision-making, and how these areas relate to data platform development

  • Good skills in data modeling

  • Willingness to work collaboratively, keep up with industry developments, and identify new opportunities. Desire to learn, grow, and share knowledge within teams

  • Ability and willingness to guide the team’s activities

  • Fluent spoken and written Finnish and English: our company language is English, but most of our client projects require Finnish proficiency

  • Readiness to support sales and offering development

  • Consulting skills—especially communication skills and the ability to drive progress

 

These will be an advantage in our projects

  • Microsoft Fabric and Power BI solution architecture and implementations

  • Data-related certifications (especially Fabric)

  • Experience with technologies such as Snowflake, Databricks, Azure Synapse, Azure DevOps Pipelines, IaC, other experience with integrations, data migrations, and APIs, Azure Cloud-Scaled Analytics framework

  • Deployment and configuration of data platform services, including networks and connections, logging, authentication, security, etc.

  • Data engineering skills

  • Previous experience and enthusiasm for working with clients in the public sector, industry, healthcare, or finance
