PREMIUM SKILLS
FOR PREMIUM
OUTCOMES.
I don't compete on price.
I compete on certainty.
Enterprise-grade BI • Partner mindset
YOUR PAIN.
MY SPECIALTY.
“Reports take 30 seconds to load”
I optimize DAX calculations, restructure semantic models, and implement aggregations that make your dashboards respond instantly.
“No one trusts the numbers”
I trace data lineage, fix calculation inconsistencies, and build governance frameworks that make your data unimpeachable.
“Team keeps asking for dashboards”
I teach your team to build and maintain their own reports, ending the bottleneck and building internal capability.
“Data exists everywhere but answers nowhere”
I consolidate fragmented data sources into a coherent lakehouse architecture that makes insights accessible.
“Copilot gives wrong answers on our data”
I optimize your semantic models for machine consumption, add rich metadata, and benchmark LLM accuracy - ensuring Copilot and AI agents return reliable answers.
ENGAGEMENT FLOORS.
These are starting points, not ceilings. Every engagement is scoped based on your specific needs and complexity.
Architecture Audit
Technical assessment of your data infrastructure. I find the bottlenecks, technical debt, and scalability risks before they become crises.
Power BI Development
Reports that answer questions and deliver insights in under 3 seconds. Full semantic model, DAX optimization, and user training included.
Fabric Engineering
Building the engine room. Lakehouses, data pipelines, warehouses, and semantic models that create your single source of truth.
Fractional Head of Data
Executive-level data leadership without the full-time hire. Strategy, oversight, and team mentorship on a retainer basis.
AI-Ready Architecture
Prepare your Fabric/Power BI investment for AI. I optimize semantic models for LLM consumption, add rich metadata, and benchmark Copilot accuracy - creating the foundation for agentic data infrastructure.
Typical engagements range from $15,000 to $75,000.
I only accept 2 new infrastructure projects per quarter.
THE BI
BLUEPRINT.
Not ready for a full engagement? Start with a 2-week discovery that gives you a complete picture of your data landscape - whether you work with me afterward or not.
100% credit. If you proceed with implementation, the Blueprint fee is credited in full toward your project.
THE PROCESS.
No mystery. No surprises. Here's exactly what happens when you work with me.
Apply
5 minSubmit your application with details about your challenge. I review every application personally.
Discovery Call
30 minA focused video call to understand your situation, assess fit, and discuss potential approaches.
The Blueprint
2 weeksOptional paid discovery. A complete technical assessment and roadmap you can use with or without me.
Implementation
VariesPhased delivery with weekly check-ins. You see progress continuously, not just at the end.
Handoff
IncludedTraining, documentation, and governance. My goal is for you to never need me again.
YOU HIRE ME.
YOU GET ME.
I've seen too many companies get burned by agencies that sell senior talent and deliver juniors. That ends here.
You hire me, you get me
No junior developers. No handoffs to offshore teams. I personally architect and deliver every engagement.
No agency bait-and-switch
You won't talk to a senior consultant in sales, then get staffed with a recent graduate. That's not how I operate.
Direct communication
No project managers playing telephone. You have a direct line to the person doing the work.
I DON'T JUST
USE THE TOOLS.
I BUILD THEM.
When the tools I need don't exist, I create them. This means I solve problems that standard consultants can't touch - and you benefit from that innovation.
These tools are used by thousands of developers and data professionals worldwide. They reflect the same engineering rigor I bring to every client engagement.
WHO THIS IS FOR.
Ideal Fit
Not A Fit
WHAT THEY SAY.
“What differentiated him from other developers is his ability to understand the context of the business and think alongside you, often proposing solutions you hadn't even thought of. Maxim truly worked as a business partner, transforming data into actionable insights.”
“I was surprised to see how he was able to track all the data using Power BI he set up from the ground up himself. To add to his technical skills, he wrote Python scripts to gather data from system APIs.”
“Throughout his work he was able to gain clients' trust and respect, building long-lasting relationships. Clients praise his diligence and insistence on achieving project success.”
READY TO PARTNER?
I review every application personally. If we're a good fit, I'll reach out within 48 hours to schedule a discovery call.
