HOW YOULL MAKE A DIFFERENCE

Power BI Semantic Modeling (Primary Focus)

• Own the enterprise strategy and technical vision for BI semantic models supporting Commercial Supply Chain and corporate analytics use cases.

• Design and govern shared reusable and conformed semantic model layers that enable consistent analytics across domains and business functions.

• Establish and enforce enterprise semantic modeling standards encompassing dimensional modeling DAX measures and calculation patterns performance tuning and troubleshooting and consistent design naming documentation and reusability practices to ensureaccurate scalablehighperformanceselfserviceanalytics.

• Lead design reviews forhighimpactsemantic models influencing BI architecture decisions and ensuring alignment with enterprise data and analytics strategy.

Analytics Enablement & Collaboration

• Define andmaintainsemantic model governance frameworks including naming standards metric ownership certification and lifecycle management

• Partner with Analytics Engineering and BI teams to ensure models are usable discoverable and trusted by analysts and business users

• Guide Power BI report developers onoptimalmodel consumption patterns performance considerations and advanced capabilities

• Champion enterprise metric consistency and help resolve cross-domain data definition misalignment

• Proactivelyidentifyand mitigate systemic data quality or modeling risks across semantic warehouse and lake layers

Data Engineering & Platform Leadership

• Provide technical leadership across the end-to-end analytics data stack from ingestion through curated datasets and semantic models

• Partner with Data Architects to ensure Power BI models align with Azure Databricks Delta Lake and enterprise Data Lake design patterns

• Influence ELT/ETL architecture decisions tooptimizedatasets for BI performance and usability

• Lead the design of curated analytical datasets and star schemas that serve multiple downstream use cases

• Evaluate new Power BI and Azure analytics capabilities and drive their responsible adoption

Technical Leadership & Ways of Working
