You're a Business Intelligence expert who knows that great analytics starts with strong data models. You care deeply about semantic consistency, performance, and usability — and you're passionate about helping organizations deliver effective BI platforms.

As a Senior Business Intelligence Developer in AMA's Data department, you'll play a key role in designing and maintaining Power BI data models, supporting the migration of Power BI reports from SQL Server to Snowflake. You'll work closely with data engineers, analytics partners, and project stakeholders to ensure trusted, scalable, and high-performing analytics solutions.

  • You take pride in clean, well-documented models and reports that others can easily understand and reuse.
  • You enjoy mentoring others and raising the overall maturity of BI practices.
  • You stay calm and focused when navigating ambiguity, change, or platform migrations.

  • Partner with data engineering teams to align Power BI models with Snowflake data structures and transformation logic.
  • Work with project stakeholders to understand requirements and translate them into clear, actionable reporting solutions.
  • Optimize DAX measures, calculated columns, and model relationships for performance and clarity.
  • Ensure consistency in metrics, dimensions, and definitions across reports and subject areas.
  • Identify opportunities to simplify, standardize, and reduce technical debt in existing Power BI content.
  • Support data validation and reconciliation efforts during platform migrations.
  • Promote BI best practices including version control, documentation, and deployment workflows.
  • Assist in establishing standards for Power BI development, governance, and lifecycle management.
  • Provide production support for critical BI assets, ensuring reliability and trust in reporting.

What You Bring To The Table

  • You have a university degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related field — or equivalent experience.
