Seeking an experienced Power BI Developer with a strong background in semantic data modeling, advanced DAX programming, data visualization, and Power BI administration.

Semantic Modeling & Data Architecture

  • Design, develop, and optimize Power BI semantic models using best-practice dimensional modeling techniques (star schema, snowflake, dataflows, shared datasets).
  • Build enterprise-grade datasets with proper relationships, hierarchies, calculation groups, and incremental refresh.
  • Collaborate with data engineering teams to define data requirements, improve data quality, and ensure model scalability and maintainability.
  • Implement data modeling standards that support self-service analytics and governed data access.

Advanced DAX Programming

  • Develop complex DAX measures, calculated columns, and tables to support business logic, KPIs, and analytical insights.
  • Optimize DAX for performance, readability, and maintainability across large datasets.
  • Troubleshoot calculation issues and ensure accuracy and consistency across reports and dashboards.
  • Implement row-level and object-level security (RLS/OLS) within the semantic model.

Visualization & Dashboard Development

  • Build intuitive, visually compelling Power BI dashboards that communicate insights clearly and effectively.
  • Apply data visualization best practices and data storytelling techniques to support decision-making.
  • Create interactive features such as drill-throughs, bookmarks, custom visuals, and parameterized reports.
  • Ensure dashboards meet accessibility, usability, and design standards.

SQL Development (Oracle & SQL Server)

  • Write efficient, well-structured SQL queries, stored procedures, and views to support BI data pipelines.
  • Perform data profiling, validation, and transformation using SQL in both Oracle and SQL Server environments.
  • Collaborate with DBAs and data engineers to optimize query performance and ensure data integrity.

Power BI Administration & Governance

  • Manage Power BI Service components including workspaces, datasets, data gateways, refresh schedules, and capacity utilization.
  • Support governance initiatives such as dataset certification, naming conventions, documentation, and version control.
  • Monitor performance, troubleshoot refresh failures, and optimize dataset size and gateway performance.
  • Assist with tenant-level administration including user access, licensing, and compliance with organizational policies.

Collaboration & Stakeholder Engagement

  • Work closely with business stakeholders to gather requirements and translate them into scalable BI solutions.
  • Provide guidance and support to self-service BI users across the organization.
  • Document data models, DAX logic, SQL scripts, and report specifications.
  • Participate in Agile or project-based workflows to support continuous improvement of BI capabilities.

Required Qualifications

  • 4-years Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Data Analytics, or related field.
  • 5+ years of hands-on Power BI development experience.
  • Strong expertise in:
    • Semantic modeling (star schema, dataflows, composite models)
    • Advanced DAX programming
    • Power Query (M language)
    • Power BI Desktop and Power BI Service
  • Solid SQL development experience in both Oracle and SQL Server.
  • Experience with Power BI administration, including gateways, RLS/OLS, workspace governance, and capacity management.
  • Strong understanding of relational and dimensional modeling concepts.
  • Ability to communicate complex technical concepts to non-technical audiences.

Preferred Skills

  • Familiarity with Oracle Business Intelligence (OBIEE) Semantic model (RPD), interactive reports and dashboard.
  • Knowledge of enterprise data governance frameworks.
  • Experience working with large, complex data sets in a multi-system environment.
