Tableau Data Engineer & Modeler

• Design certified, reusable published data sources that become the single source of truth for core business entities, using validated business logic and the right grain for each use case.
• Standardize calculated fields, LOD expressions and hierarchies at the data-source level so dashboards stay consistent.
• Tune extracts and live connections for performance and refresh cost through aggregation, filtering, incremental refresh and field pruning.
• Prepare models for AI agents using the Tableau MCP server. This means writing clear field names, captions, descriptions and metadata, and removing duplicate fields, unclear measures and inconsistent date logic.
• Test agent queries against our models, find where answers go wrong, and fix the model rather than the prompt.
• Help define Tableau Pulse metrics and the semantic layer that both people and agents rely on.
• Check every new or changed model and report against Finance-approved figures or the source system of record before release. Nothing goes live until differences are explained, documented and signed off by the data owner.
• Build automated data quality checks between source systems and Tableau, and flag process failures to data owners.
• Maintain lineage and documentation in Tableau Catalog / Data Management, and set up row-level security, user filters and permissions that follow our governance framework.
• Build, schedule and monitor Tableau Prep flows from Salesforce, PostgreSQL and other sources. You’ll own run reliability, failure alerts and recovery.
• Refactor older flows and extracts so they’re faster, easier to maintain and cheaper to refresh.
• Work with Analysts, Sales, Finance and Salesforce admins to turn reporting needs into durable models, and train Tableau authors through documentation and code review.

• 4+ years in data engineering, analytics engineering or BI development, including 2+ years building production Tableau data sources
• Have built and maintained at least 3 production Tableau Prep flows that run on a schedule and use complex joins, unions, pivots and aggregations
• Have published at least 5 Tableau data sources used across multiple dashboards or teams, with clear decisions on relationships vs. joins and extracts vs. live connections
• 3+ years writing advanced SQL, ideally PostgreSQL, including window functions, CTEs and materialized views. You can show at least one query you improved by reading its query plan.
• Have designed at least one dimensional model (star schema) end to end, covering grain, slowly changing dimensions, conformed dimensions and many-to-many relationships
• Have reconciled data models or reports to financial or system-of-record figures at least twice, documenting differences and getting stakeholder sign-off
• Have set up row-level security or user-based access controls in Tableau for at least one production data source
• 1+ year working with Salesforce data as a source, including objects, relationships and history tables
• Can explain how the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and the Tableau MCP server let AI agents read metadata and query data sources, and name at least 3 model features that make agent answers more or less accurate
• Can share 2+ examples of technical documentation you wrote, such as data dictionaries, lineage notes or design decisions, for both technical and non-technical readers

• Have tested LLM or AI agent access to BI data and measured how accurate the answers were against a known source
• 1+ year using Python for automation, API work or Tableau Prep scripting steps
