Lead the migration from Power BI Premium to Microsoft Fabric, ensuring seamless service continuity and modernization of the data estate.
Profile description: Microsoft Fabric Migration Lead (Power BI Premium P1 -> Fabric)
Developer profile: We’re looking for a hands-on specialist to lead our migration from Power BI Premium per capacity (P1/P-SKUs) to Microsoft Fabric (F-SKUs), ensuring continuity of service while modernizing our data estate.
Responsibilities:
Audit existing Power BI workspaces, datasets, dataflows, and security models; identify stale assets and dependencies.
Plan capacity and licensing by modeling the move from P1 fixed-cost to Fabric consumption pricing; deliver cost/benefit analysis (e.g., F64+ vs lower SKU + Pro licenses).
Execute the migration (manual or automated via REST APIs) with minimal downtime for business-critical reporting and refresh schedules.
Redesign architecture and governance in Fabric (e.g., OneLake + Medallion (Bronze/Silver/Gold), Purview).
Enable internal teams through training and establish CI/CD DevOps pipelines for the new Fabric environment.
Requirements:
Proven experience migrating enterprise Power BI Premium capacities (P1 and above) to Microsoft Fabric (F-SKUs).
Strong Fabric architecture knowledge: OneLake, Data Factory, Synapse Data Engineering, and Fabric vs legacy Power BI.
Deep expertise in Fabric licensing/FinOps, including the F64 free-viewer threshold, and cost control (reserved instances vs pay-as-you-go).
Technical proficiency: SQL, DAX, Power Query, and PySpark/Spark SQL.
Governance experience translating RLS and sensitivity labels into Fabric’s unified security model.
