  • Implement UI/UX best practices to create intuitive, high-quality user interfaces for dashboards, tools, and self-service products; ensure consistency, usability, and alignment with business needs.
  • Build automation, workflow utilities, and lightweight applications using Group tools such as Python, Jupyter Notebooks, R Studio, Power BI, Power Automate, Office/VBA components, and other business-friendly frameworks.
  • Act as the developer for key dashboards and self-services, managing lifecycle operations, enhancements, user feedback, and backlog prioritization.
  • Collaborate closely with data engineering, IT infrastructure, and enterprise architecture teams to secure compliant, scalable, and well-governed integrations.
  • Translate business requirements into structured technical specifications and design documents; provide expert consultation to internal clients on UI design, data modelling, and dashboard architecture.
  • Ensure compliance with internal standards on data privacy, operational governance, model transparency, and reporting integrity.
  • Drive continuous improvement of the business analytics stack through standardization, templates, and repeatable frameworks for dashboarding and data integration.
  • Stay current with modern BI practices, Microsoft Power Platform advancements, and best-in-class approaches to data productization in analytical organizations.

Your Profile

  • Advanced skills in Power BI (Power Query, DAX, data modelling, performance optimization) with a track record of designing enterprise-grade dashboards, production data services.
  • Solid understanding of ETL/ELT, data modelling principles, SQL, and data integration workflows; experience collaborating with data engineers to build reliable data pipelines.
  • Proficient in programming languages such as R or Python.
  • Proven experience delivering high-quality UI/UX for business-facing analytical tools; familiarity with design thinking, usability principles, and iterative prototyping.
  • Hands-on experience with Power Platform (Power Automate, Power Apps) and office automation (e.g., VBA, Excel integration) is an advantage.
  • Demonstrated ability to manage lifecycle operations of BI products, including data refresh processes, access management, documentation, and service quality.
  • Skilled in engaging business stakeholders, understanding their requirements, and translating them into well-structured technical implementations.
  • Strong communication, conceptual thinking, and ability to collaborate across business, analytics, and IT teams without generating organizational friction.
  • Familiarity with data governance, privacy requirements, and operational risk considerations for business-owned data products in a regulated industry.
