Job description

Owns the part of the analytics stack: the semantic model, the business measures, and the reports built on them. Modeling, defining measures once, and turning them into reporting people trust.

This is a code-first role. Transformation logic is SQL and dbt-style modeling against the warehouse, not visual pipeline tooling.

What you’ll own

  • Design and build semantic models: structure, relationships, grain, cardinality, business measures, and consumer-facing naming
  • Write and own business measure DAX in the model, including time intelligence and the filter-context work
  • Build and maintain SQL-based transformation logic from source through to reporting-ready tables
  • Own model performance and refresh behavior across Direct Lake and Import modes, including Delta layout and fallback conditions
  • Build Power BI reports and dashboards against your own models; own visualization choices and report performance
  • Implement row-level and object-level security to the approved design
  • Validate source-to-target and regression test when shared models change
  • Promote changes through Git and deployment pipelines across dev/test/prod
  • Document measure definitions, refresh timing, and known limitations; demo working increments to the business
  • Work directly with business stakeholders to turn ambiguous asks into defined requirements

Requirements

  • 5+ years in analytics engineering, BI development, or data warehousing
  • Production ownership of Power BI semantic models - not reports built on a model someone else owns
  • Strong DAX: measures vs. calculated columns, filter context, time intelligence
  • Strong SQL: T-SQL, SQL Server, stored procedures, window functions, CTEs, performance tuning
  • Dimensional modeling and star schema
  • Data warehouse design and development experience
  • Row-level security in production
  • Git-based version control for BI and data assets, with dev/test/prod promotion
  • Power Query (M)
  • Direct experience running requirements conversations and business demos

Preferred

  • dbt or SQLMesh- transformation as code, with testing and lineage
  • DP-600 Certification- Fabric Analytics Engineer Associate (semantic modeling, Lakehouse, DAX)
  • Hands-on Microsoft Fabric: Lakehouse, Warehouse, OneLake, Direct Lake, deployment pipelines
  • Transactional-system reporting background (order-to-cash, operations, logistics, or comparable)
  • Agile/Scrum delivery
