Övergripande uppdragsbeskrivning
We are seeking an experienced BI Architect / Project Lead to guide and oversee a major initiative to modernize our customers business intelligence and reporting architecture.
As this initiative will evolve at a deliberate pace due to business constraints, we expect this engagement to be a 50% position, providing ample time to collaborate with internal stakeholders, assess needs, and drive change sustainably.
The consultant will lead the design and implementation of a Data Lakehouse architecture using cloud-based platforms, manage the selection of BI tools, and develop a long-term roadmap for transforming our current BI landscape. This includes selecting the right platform (Google Cloud, Azure, or similar), performing a Proof-of-Concept (PoC), and defining standards for self-service reporting tools like Qlik, SAP Analytics Cloud, or Power BI.
The consultant will also work on identifying third-party partners, define a clear migration path from our current Microsoft SQL Server-based data warehouse, and create a high-level plan and budget for the full BI/Reporting transformation project.
Key Responsibilities:
Architecture & Strategy
– Consult and advise on the development of a scalable Data Lakehouse architecture using modern cloud-based services (Google Cloud, Azure, or similar).
– Collaborate with business stakeholders to assess current BI and reporting needs and define a future-state architecture that meets business goals.
– Lead the process of selecting a Data Lakehouse platform, providing objective guidance on the best cloud service (Google Cloud, Azure, Databricks, etc.) for the company’s needs.
– Recommend and establish a self-service reporting tool standard (Qlik, SAP Analytics Cloud, Power BI, Tableau, Looker, or similar) that supports business users’ needs for access to analytics and data.
Proof of Concept & Implementation
– Manage and potentially help develop a Proof-of-Concept (PoC) to validate the architecture and selected BI tools, working closely with internal teams to demonstrate the value of the proposed solution.
– Define the steps for the transition from our Microsoft SQL Server Data Warehouse to the new Data Lakehouse environment, ensuring co-existence during transition and minimal disruption.
– Lead the integration of key data sources into the new architecture, validating data quality, and system performance during the PoC.
Project Management & Partner Collaboration
– Work with the company’s internal team to create a high-level project plan, including key milestones, timelines, and a clear migration path from the current system.
– Identify and engage potential third-party partners and vendors to provide expertise and support during implementation and migration.
– Provide consultative support in estimating costs and developing a budget for the full BI/Reporting project, ensuring that the plan aligns with both technical requirements and business constraints.
Governance, Standards & Best Practices
– Align and evolve guidelines for data governance, security, and compliance within the new architecture, ensuring best practices are followed.
– Establish standards for documentation and guidelines for data warehousing, BI development, and self-service reporting to ensure scalability and maintainability.
– Recommend industry best practices for managing data privacy and security, in line with regulatory requirements and company policies.
Nice to Have
– Prior experience in Fashion/Retail industries or a similar dynamic business environment.
– Hands-on knowledge of machine learning or AI-powered analytics as part of a modern data architecture.
– Experience with ERP systems (e.g., SAP) or retail-specific platforms, providing a well-rounded understanding of business data needs.
