This role will work across data engineering and business intelligence , turning data into clear and useful reporting experiences.
You will work with data engineers, analysts, and business stakeholders to develop semantic models, dashboards, and reports that follow established data products and organizational standards.

• Implement and maintain data security policies within reporting tools in adherence with PVS data security policies, governance and best practices
Semantic Modeling
• Build and maintain Power BI semantic models (datasets) that serve as governed, reusable data foundations
• Apply established data modeling practices such as star schema, DAX optimization, and row-level security
• Partner with engineering to ensure alignment between data pipelines and reporting layer
Data Quality & Reliability
• Validate data outputs and ensure consistency between reports and source systems
• Troubleshoot data discrepancies, refresh failures, and performance issues
• Contribute to monitoring, testing, and documentation of reporting solutions
• Implement and validate Row Level Security in a multi-tenant environment
Collaboration & Delivery
• Work closely with business stakeholders to refine requirements and prioritize features
• Participate in design discussions, backlog refinement, and peer reviews
• Communicate technical tradeoffs, risks, and timelines clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences
Scalability & Data Product Enablement
• Contribute to the development of scalable, reusable reporting assets that align with PVS data product strategy
• Support self-service analytics by enabling well-documented datasets and consistent definitions
• Contribute to improvements in deployment practices, governance, and lifecycle management
What You Bring
Technical Expertise
• 4+ Years of practical experience with Power BI , including report development, visualizations, DAX, Power Query, and semantic modeling; exposure to tools such as Tabular Editor 3 , DAX Studio , or ALM Toolkit is helpful
• Strong knowledge of data modeling concepts , including star schema and fact/dimension design
• Experience with SQL and working with structured datasets in data warehouses/lakehouses
• Familiarity with data pipelines and integration concepts (e.g., Azure Data Factory, ETL/ELT patterns)
