Ralliant is seeking a Microsoft 365 Power Platform Engineer to design and deliver analytics solutions with a strong focus on Microsoft Fabric, Power BI, and AI-enabled analytics strategy. This role will play a key part in enabling AI-ready data foundations, supporting Copilot experiences, and operationalizing analytics and insights across the organization in a secure, governed, and scalable manner.
The ideal candidate combines strong BI engineering skills with an understanding of how AI capabilities (Copilot, semantic models, data quality, and governance) depend on well-designed data platforms. You will partner with business stakeholders, security, and platform teams to ensure data products are optimized not only for reporting, but also for AI-driven insights and automation.
Key Responsibilities
Microsoft Fabric & Data Platform Engineering
Design and implement end-to-end Microsoft Fabric solutions leveraging Lakehouse/Warehouse, Data Pipelines, Dataflows Gen2, and Fabric capacities.
Build scalable data ingestion, transformation, and modeling pipelines that support analytics, self-service BI, and downstream AI use cases.
Implement standardized medallion-style data architectures (e.g., bronze/silver/gold) with strong data quality, lineage, and observability.
Optimize Fabric workloads for performance, reliability, and cost efficiency, including capacity utilization and refresh strategies.
Develop enterprise-grade Power BI semantic models designed for reuse, performance, and AI-readiness.
Create and maintain Power BI reports and dashboards with a strong focus on usability, performance, and accessibility.
Apply advanced DAX and Power Query (M) techniques to optimize large models and complex datasets.
Implement and manage Power BI deployment pipelines, workspace strategies, and lifecycle management (dev/test/prod). AI Strategy Enablement
Design AI-ready data models and semantic layers that support Microsoft Copilot, natural language querying, and generative AI experiences.
Partner with architecture and AI teams to align Fabric and Power BI assets with the organization’s broader AI and Copilot strategy.
Ensure datasets are curated, documented, and governed to support trusted AI outputs (certified datasets, promoted models, consistent definitions).
Identify opportunities to embed AI-driven insights into Power BI, Power Apps, and Microsoft 365 workflows.
Contribute to enterprise standards for responsible AI enablement, including data quality, security boundaries, and explainability. Power Platform & M365 Integration
Build supporting Power Apps and Power Automate flows that extend analytics insights into operational workflows.
Integrate solutions with Microsoft 365 services (Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive, Outlook) for collaboration, distribution, and automation. Governance, Security & Operations
Implement and maintain data security, access controls, and governance policies, including RLS, sensitivity labels, and workspace controls.
Support Power BI and Fabric administration, including capacity monitoring, usage analysis, audit logs, and environment governance.
Produce audit-ready documentation: solution architectures, semantic model definitions, AI usage considerations, and operational runbooks.
Act as a trusted technical advisor to stakeholders during requirements gathering, solution design, and prioritization.
Skills & Experience
5+ years of experience delivering BI or analytics solutions using Power BI and Microsoft data platforms.
Hands-on experience with Microsoft Fabric, or strong prior experience with Power BI + Azure data services transitioning into Fabric.
Dimensional data modeling and semantic layer design
DAX optimization and performance tuning
Power Query (M) and data transformation best practices
Experience designing analytics solutions with AI and Copilot consumption in mind.
Solid understanding of data governance, security, and access control concepts.
Strong SQL skills for querying, troubleshooting, and performance optimization.
Ability to communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Qualifications
BA/BS in Finance, Accounting, Computer Science, Information Systems, Cybersecurity, or a related field
Experience with both Commercial and GCCH Microsoft environments.
Experience supporting Copilot or AI-assisted analytics scenarios in Microsoft Fabric or Power BI.
Familiarity with Fabric capacity planning, cost management, and monitoring.
Experience with Purview, data cataloging, lineage, and metadata management.
Power Platform experience (Power Apps, Power Automate, Dataverse).
