* Strong DAX, VertiPaq optimisation, and performance tuning
* Experience with Tabular Editor, DAX Studio, SSMS (XMLA)
* Power BI Enterprise Gateway setup and management
* Git / CI/CD in Power BI or Fabric environments
* Experience modernising / migrating existing BI estates
* Strong understanding of dimensional modelling (Kimball)
Bonus Points
* .pbip + Git-based workflows
* RLS / OLS design
* Snowflake integration
* Microsoft Fabric
* Composite models / aggregations
This is a solid contract opportunity for an Edinburgh based product company. You will be outside IR35 and working with a highly skilled and driven team.
