Schedule:

Full-time

We are recruiting on behalf of a mission-driven public-sector organization seeking an experienced Business Intelligence Developer – SQL & Data Integration to join its data team.

This role sits at the intersection of data, technology, business process improvement, reporting, and automation. It is ideal for someone who enjoys looking at a manual or inefficient process and asking, "How can we make this work better through data and technology?"

You will work with data from existing systems and use SQL, Power BI, data integration, scripting, and automation to make information more connected, accurate, accessible, and useful across the organization.

This is more technical than a traditional Data Analyst position, but it is not a traditional Database Administrator or Data Engineer role. Rather than building or administering the organization's core source systems, you will work with available data, integrate information across systems, automate repetitive workflows, and create solutions that make day-to-day operations more efficient.

In this role, you will:

• Develop, write, and optimize SQL queries, views, stored procedures, and parameterized scripts to improve data access and operational workflows.
• Work with existing database structures and available back-end data to develop reliable, scalable solutions for internal users.
• Develop a strong understanding of existing systems, data structures, relationships, and dependencies.
• Integrate data from systems that do not naturally communicate with one another.
• Build and maintain Power BI dashboards, reports, data models, and visualizations that provide meaningful, actionable insights.
• Use advanced DAX and Power Query capabilities to transform and model data.
• Automate repetitive processes and workflows using tools such as Python, Power Shell, SQL, Power Query, or similar technologies.
• Replace manual Excel-, Word-, and click-intensive processes with more efficient, technology-driven solutions.
• Structure and prepare data so end users receive information in a usable format with minimal manual manipulation required.
• Identify and resolve data discrepancies to maintain accuracy, reliability, and data integrity.
• Evaluate existing business processes and identify opportunities to reduce unnecessary steps, manual effort, and duplication.
• Collaborate with internal stakeholders to translate business needs into practical technical solutions.
• Coordinate with external vendors regarding data transfers, integrations, security requirements, and technical issues.
• Evaluate emerging technologies and recommend improvements that support efficiency and scalability.
• Share best practices and technical knowledge with other members of the data team.

The organization is specifically looking for someone who can combine technical expertise with a strong understanding of how data supports real-world business operations.

Many of the organization's existing processes have historically required employees to export data, manipulate spreadsheets, sort information manually, or repeat the same steps each time a report or workflow is needed.

Your goal will be to reduce that manual effort.

Instead of simply creating another spreadsheet or macro, you may use SQL to organize and prepare the data earlier in the process, create an automated workflow, integrate data from multiple sources, or build a Power BI solution that gives users the information they need in a ready-to-use format.

The end goal is to allow employees to focus on the work that requires their expertise rather than spending time manually preparing data.

The successful candidate will bring real-world experience working with SQL, business intelligence, data integration, and automation.

Qualifications include:

• Approximately 5+ years of experience in database development, ETL, data integration, business intelligence, data engineering, or a related area.
• Intermediate-to-advanced SQL skills, including professional…
