Data Architect

Norrin helps businesses enable enterprise intelligence and build sustainable IT. As a Finnish Microsoft technology partner, we support our clients from strategy to execution, in making real productivity leaps through modern data platforms, software development, cloud solutions, and AI. We bring together deep technical expertise, a creative engineering mindset, and a people-focused work culture. At Norrin, you’ can grow in the direction you choose. We don’t just build IT solutions, we build meaningful careers. Our story began with three separate companies – Cloud1, Devisioona, and Smartbi. Now, together, we are Norrin. 

As a Data Architect, you’ll be part of our expert team, designing and developing modern, scalable data solutions in exciting client projects - leveraging the best of Microsoft’s technologies like Azure, Databricks, and Microsoft Fabric.

You’ll get to work hands-on while also contributing to architecture decisions, data governance, and reporting solutions. Depending on your role allocation and client needs, you may work on one or more projects simultaneously. You’ll collaborate closely with our team and clients - sometimes guiding and coaching, other times diving into development work yourself.

We’ll shape the focus of your role together based on your strengths and interests. Whether your passion lies in solution design, technical architecture, or both - you’ll find space to influence, grow, and thrive at Norrin.

What your role consists of

• Designing and developing data platforms and integrations

• Ensuring solution-level data security and governance

• Planning deployment and continuous development together with clients and development teams

Why Norrin?

• Culture Built Around People: A workplace where you’re welcome as your authentic self and supported to thrive and grow. Our culture is rooted in openness, inclusion, and mutual respect.

• Flexible work model: Balance matters. Our hybrid approach offers the best of both worlds. Flexibility when you need it, and in-person collaboration for meaningful team interactions.

• Benefits for Wellbeing:
  We offer comprehensive benefits from extensive occupational healthcare, dental coverage, insurance, regular massage opportunities to cultural and sports perks.

• Fair and Rewarding Compensation: Total compensation includes a base salary and bonus, reflecting your expertise and contributions, along with the opportunity to participate in the employee fund.

• Opportunities to grow
  Your journey at Norrin starts with a personal development plan tailored to your goals and reviewed regularly. Your growth is further supported through training and certification opportunities. You’ll also be encouraged to join our Guilds - collaborative communities that foster learning and development across Norrin.
