Job Description:
Role: Power BI Developer
Location: Hybrid - 4 days/week onsite in SE MI
Duration: Long-Term Contract
Job Description
We are seeking a highly skilled Power BI Developer to join our team, responsible for designing, building, and maintaining sophisticated dashboards that drive data-driven decision-making for our website.
This role is ideal for a technical expert who thrives on collaboration and wants to make a tangible impact on how a global organization leverages digital data. Our primary focus is reporting on website performance; therefore, a deep background in digital analytics is critical. You will work with large-scale datasets from Adobe Analytics and Google Cloud Platform (GCP) to create a unified, 360-degree view of digital performance, site activity, and revenue outcomes.
The Impact You’ll Make: The end goal isn’t just building a report; it’s arming internal stakeholders with the clarity needed to make better business decisions. You will act as a "data translator"—taking vague business requirements and converting them into intuitive dashboard layouts and visualization components that allow users to reach insights instantly.
Responsibilities
- Dashboard Development: Design, develop, and maintain high-performance Power BI dashboards that provide accurate, timely, and actionable insights into digital performance.
- Advanced DAX & Modeling: Author complex Data Analysis Expressions (DAX) and measures to support dynamic analysis and ensure data integrity.
- Stakeholder Consultation: Partner closely with internal teams to understand their business needs, translating high-level questions into technical requirements and user-centric visualizations.
- Data Engineering Collaboration: Work hand-in-hand with Analytics Engineers to align on data requirements and design transformation pipelines within GCP (BigQuery), handling complex business rules and high-volume clickstream data.
- Data Modeling: Build and optimize Power BI data models that transform raw, disparate data into clean, validated, and reusable datasets.
- Quality Assurance: Implement and maintain rigorous data quality checks and monitoring systems to ensure the accuracy and reliability of all reporting.
- Innovation: Stay at the forefront of the Power BI ecosystem, adopting new features and best practices to continuously improve our visualization capabilities.
Qualifications
- Experience: 5+ years of professional experience in data visualization and business intelligence.
- Power BI Expertise: Advanced proficiency in Power BI is mandatory, including expert-level DAX skills and experience with complex data modeling.
- Digital Analytics: Strong experience working with digital analytics data (e.g., Adobe Analytics or Google Analytics) and a solid understanding of e-commerce metrics.
- Cloud Data Warehousing: Hands-on experience with GCP services, specifically BigQuery, and the ability to write/understand SQL.
- Analytical Thinking: Exceptional problem-solving skills with the ability to navigate ambiguous requirements.
- Communication: Strong ability to communicate technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
- Agile Mindset: Familiarity with Agile development methodologies and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, iterative environment.
PREFERRED SKILLS
- Direct experience with Adobe Analytics implementation or reporting.
- Experience analyzing Clickstream data.
- Advanced SQL skills for data exploration and validation.
- Experience building/maintaining data transformation pipelines in GCP.
- Familiarity with GitHub for version control.
- Experience using JIRA for project and task management.
