ESSENTIAL JOB FUNCTIONS
You'll work in three main modes on our Business Intelligence team:
- Problem-solving and solution design
- You'll act as part private investigator, part anthropologist as you work to map real-world activity and processes to systems and data
- You'll act as an internal consultant as you work collaboratively with business partners to design the best way to make people's decisions better and their lives easier
- Data modeling
- You'll use dbt, a SQL-based framework for defining data transformations, to build and extend core data models in our Snowflake data warehouse
- You'll also develop the backend models for Power BI datasets, using DAX and the full range of tooling available to you in the Power BI service
- Visualization and product development
- You'll make apps and dashboards in Power BI, targeting hundreds to thousands of users globally
- You will have the freedom to explore other solutions as needed, even if they're not part of our core stack
No matter what mode you're working in at the time, you'll use an engineering-driven approach: you'll automate, you'll test, you'll use version control, you'll optimize performance, you'll measure outcomes. You'll also spend time on learning new data skills: we'll specifically allocate time for you to attend trainings, try new technologies, or work on side projects, so that you can grow with the team.
