The Role:

The Data \& Analytics Lead is the "intelligence engine" for the entire organization. We are already a heavy Power BI shop; your mission is to take our existing footprint to the next level. You will manage our Data Lake (AWS or Azure), scale our Power BI Fabric implementation, and act as a high\-speed technical partner for every department—from Sales to Fulfillment. This is a role for a curious, experimental builder who loves solving complex puzzles under tight deadlines and providing the "speed to insight" that keeps our executive team moving.

Responsibilities:

Power BI \& Fabric Power\-User

• Advance the Stack: Take ownership of a mature Power BI environment. Optimize existing dashboards for performance and design "next\-gen" visualizations in Power BI Fabric.
• New Development: Rapidly build and deploy new dashboards that track emerging business initiatives across the organization.
• Deep\-Dive DAX: Write and troubleshoot complex DAX and Power Query (M) to ensure our metrics are accurate and performant.

Data Lake Architecture \& Management

• Lake Ownership: Manage and optimize our Data Lake environment (AWS or Azure). Ensure data is clean, accessible, and structured for high\-performance reporting.
• Cross\-Org Integration: Ingest data from disparate sources (Dynamics, Zendesk, Atlassian, and application data) into a unified layer that allows for cross\-departmental analysis.
• Experimental Engineering: Be open to testing new tools, connectors, or AI\-driven data processing methods to find the most efficient path to an answer.

High\-Velocity Ad\-Hoc Analysis

• The "Human API": Act as the primary point of contact for "quick questions" from leadership. You must be able to pivot from a long\-term project to a 30\-minute deep\-dive to answer a pressing business question.
• Cross\-Departmental Projects: Manage a rotating queue of projects from different teams. One day you’re helping Finance with billing reconciliation; the next, you’re helping Support track ticket deflection.

Curiosity \& Experimentation

• Stay Hungry: Constantly look for better ways to visualize data or automate reporting. We want someone who asks "What if we tried this?" instead of just following a ticket.
• AI Integration: Explore how AI features within the Power BI/Fabric ecosystem (like Copilot for Power BI) can be used to speed up our internal workflows.

Desired Skills and Experience:

• Bachelor’s degree required (Computer Science, Mathematics, Statistics, or related field preferred)
• 3–5 years of experience in a data analytics, BI, or data engineering\-adjacent role
• Expert\-level proficiency in Power BI, including advanced DAX, Power BI Service administration, and experience with Microsoft Fabric and/or Lakehouse architecture
• Strong hands\-on experience with cloud\-based data platforms, including AWS (S3, Redshift) and/or Azure (Data Lake, Synapse)
• Advanced SQL expertise with the ability to write complex queries across large, disparate, and legacy datasets
• Demonstrated ability to identify trends, anomalies, and data quality issues proactively (strong analytical and statistical intuition)
• Experience in logistics, sports/entertainment, or high\-growth SaaS environments strongly preferred
• Proficiency in Python or R for advanced data manipulation and analysis preferred
• Portfolio or examples of impactful dashboard design that go beyond standard BI reporting (emphasis on storytelling and usability)
• Comfortable working in fast\-paced, in\-office environments that require real\-time collaboration and rapid iteration
• Able to prioritize speed and business needs in time\-sensitive situations, balancing “good enough now” vs. “perfect later”
• Technically adaptable and resourceful, with the ability to quickly ramp on new tools across AWS, Azure, and emerging data technologies
