Data Analyst / Power BI Expert

Project overview

RDI | DAX | Power Query | CI/CD | Data Modeling

Assignment Description

Are you a driven data analyst with in-depth Power BI expertise? And do you want to use your knowledge to develop complex Power BI solutions and contribute to professionalizing the Power BI methodology of our team? Then we are looking for you!

As a data analyst, you will work on existing and new BI use cases: from understanding the information needs and analyzing and modeling data to developing, testing, and preparing Power BI solutions for production. You will work closely with clients, users, data analysts, data engineers, and other specialists within Team Analysis.

An important part of the assignment is the transition to a new data platform. You will contribute to the further development and migration of existing BI solutions and to a professional development and management methodology for Power BI products. This includes working with Power BI workspaces, version control, CI/CD, deployment, standards, and manageability.

In addition, you will have an explicit role in strengthening the Power BI craftsmanship within the BI cluster. You will act as a subject matter expert for data analysts, support with complex Power BI issues, review solutions, and actively transfer knowledge, standards, and best practices.

The intended result is therefore twofold: realizing high-quality and future-proof Power BI solutions and strengthening the BI cluster in the way these solutions are professionally developed, managed, and further developed.

Background of Assignment

The RDI is working on strengthening its information position and wants to utilize data ever better for information-driven and risk-oriented supervision, steering, and decision-making.

Team Analysis supports this development with Business Intelligence, data analysis, and Artificial Intelligence. Within the BI cluster, dashboards, analyses, and other information products are developed for various parts of the organization.

The BI environment is also in an important development phase. The RDI is working on a new data platform and is moving towards a more standardized, reusable, and manageable way of developing. Existing BI solutions are migrated and further developed where necessary, while new information products are increasingly realized according to the new development and management methodology.
