Job Description The BI Developer is a high-output Power BI report builder who turns business questions into polished, fast, and easy-to-use reports. You will work from approved semantic models and curated datasets, partner closely with Data Engineering to ensure the right data is available, gather requirements directly from stakeholders, and deliver production-ready reports at a high velocity.

Primary Responsibilities 1) High-Velocity Power BI Report Delivery (Primary Focus) u00b7 Build and publish Power BI reports and dashboards from existing datasets/semantic models, with an emphasis on speed and quality. u00b7 Apply DSI design guidelines consistently (layout, typography, color usage, spacing, interaction patterns, and accessibility). u00b7 Create clear, reusable report templates and components to accelerate delivery and maintain consistency. u00b7 Implement user-friendly navigation, drill-through, tooltips, and storytelling patterns that make insights obvious. u00b7 Own end-to-end report QA: filters, slicers, totals, drill paths, security behavior, and edge cases. 2) Requirements Gathering and Iteration u00b7 Lead fast, structured intake with stakeholders to understand goals, decisions, and the u201cso whatu201d behind requests. u00b7 Translate needs into a short requirements brief (measures needed, visuals, audience, grain, refresh cadence). u00b7 Prototype quickly (wireframe or draft build), review early with users, and iterate in short feedback cycles. u00b7 Prioritize requests with the manager and stakeholders to maintain a reliable delivery pipeline. 3) Data Collaboration and Validation u00b7 Partner with the Data Engineer to request new fields, measures, relationships, or curated tables when gaps are discovered. u00b7 Validate data accuracy using basic SQL, spot checks, and reconciliation to source systems when needed. u00b7 Create and maintain business-friendly metric definitions (what the measure means, how it is calculated, and any caveats). 4) Performance and Usability u00b7 Build reports that feel fast: lean visuals, efficient interactions, and clean measure usage. u00b7 Use DAX and model best practices to avoid common performance traps (excessive visuals, heavy iterators, poorly designed slicers). u00b7 Work with the Data Engineer to resolve performance issues in measures/models when required. 5) Documentation and Support u00b7 Maintain lightweight documentation for each deliverable: purpose, audience, data source, refresh cadence, and key measures. u00b7 Support post-deployment enhancements and bug fixes while keeping production reports stable and trustworthy. u00b7 When requested, help create or update simple diagrams (Visio or equivalent) that explain report/data dependencies.
