Overview
We are seeking a highly skilled Power Platform Developer(Power BI-focused) to lead the design and implementation of a centralized business intelligence environment.
This is a hands-on, onsite role working closely with internal leadership to build a scalable reporting ecosystem from the ground up. While Power BI will be the primary focus, the ideal candidate will also bring experience with Power Automate and Power Apps to help shape a broader Power Platform strategy.

Stakeholder Engagement & Discovery
- Work directly with leadership and department heads to:
o Understand current reporting tools and processes
o Identify reporting gaps and inefficiencies
o Define key KPIs and business metrics
- Translate business requirements into clear, actionable data solutions.
Data Integration & Environment Buildout
- Consolidate and integrate data from:
o Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2017 o Microsoft Business Central (in progress)
o Synerion

- Help design and support a centralized data repository / reporting layer.
Strategy & Roadmap

- Recommend best practices for:

o Security and access control
o Performance optimization
- Build the foundation for long-term BI and analytics strategy.
What We’re Looking For Required Experience
- Proven experience delivering Power BI solutions in enterprise environments.
- Strong expertise in:
o Data modeling (star schema, relationships, DAX)
o Data transformation (Power Query / ETL concepts)
- Experience building reporting environments from scratch.
- Ability to work directly with stakeholders and drive requirements independently.
- Strong communication skills with both technical and non-technical audiences.
Preferred Experience
o Microsoft Dynamics NAV and/or Business Central
o Multi-system data integration o Cloud-based BI or Azure data services
- Experience implementing Power Platform solutions beyond Power BI
Who You Are
- A builder who thrives in greenfield environments.
- A consultative thinker who can guide business leaders—not just take orders .
- Someone who understands both data and business context.
- Comfortable taking ownership of architecture, design, and delivery.
- Able to operate independently in an onsite, collaborative environment.
Why This Role Matters
We are in the early stages of building a centralized reporting and analytics platform. This role is not just about building dashboards—it’s about defining how the organization uses data moving forward.
You’ll have the opportunity to:
- Influence architecture and standards from day one.
- Build a modern reporting ecosystem across multiple business units.
- Play a key role in shaping long-term data strategy.
