Job description
- Serve as the subject matter expert on the D365FO data model, advising the BI team on table structures, relationships, and data lineage as the implementation progresses.
- Design new dimensional models (star schemas, fact/dimension tables) for financial and manufacturing reporting (e.g., GL, AP/AR, cost accounting, production, inventory, BOM/routing), applying deep domain knowledge to ensure models accurately represent business processes.
- Work directly with business users to gather and evaluate requirements, build design specifications, and translate those specs into SQL queries and data models.
- Write and optimize complex SQL queries - including CTEs and analytical/window functions - against D365FO-replicated data in Snowflake and Azure Synapse.
- Design and build table-level entity relationship diagrams (ERDs) documenting D365FO source tables and relationships to support downstream modeling.
- Test deliverables with business users, validating results to ensure data quality and accuracy before release, and build or guide development of Power BI reports from the new models.
- Identify data gaps or mapping issues between D365FO source data and target models, and document data models, mappings, and business logic for long-term maintainability.
Requirements
- 5+ years of hands-on experience with the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations (D365FO) data model, including core finance, supply chain, and/or procurement entities.
- Deep, expert-level knowledge of financial domain concepts (general ledger, accounts payable/receivable, cost accounting, financial reporting) and manufacturing domain concepts (production orders, BOM/routing, inventory, costing).
- 5+ years of SQL experience, including CTEs, analytical/window functions, and query optimization across large datasets.
- Experience designing dimensional models (star schema, fact/dimension design) for financial and manufacturing BI reporting, including building table-level ERDs and source-to-target documentation.
- Hands-on experience with both Snowflake and Azure Synapse.
- Business analyst experience supporting a D365FO (or D365 F&SCM) implementation - requirements gathering, stakeholder interviews, and translating business needs into technical specifications.
- Working knowledge of Power BI, plus excellent communication and collaboration skills across distributed, cross-functional teams.
Additional Preferred Qualifications
- Power BI development skills (DAX, data modeling, dashboard/report build-out).
- Experience working alongside data engineering teams during active ERP implementations, including familiarity with ERP data replication patterns (e.g., Tier-2/Export to Data Lake, dbt, ETL/ELT tools).
