  • Partner with stakeholders across departments to gather requirements, translate business needs into technical solutions, and drive data-driven decision-making.
  • Optimize database queries, DAX calculations, Power BI datasets, and storage models for efficiency and scalability.
  • Implement data governance practices, establish validation rules, and maintain high standards for data integrity and accuracy.
  • Maintain thorough documentation of data architecture, data flows, and reporting standards.
  • Promote best practices in BI development and data engineering.
  • Stay current with BI trends, Power BI feature releases, and modern data stack technologies to continuously improve reporting capabilities.

Qualifications

  • 3+ years of experience as a Data Engineer, with at least 2 years in a senior or lead role.
  • Strong track record in Power BI development and enterprise reporting solutions.
  • Proven experience designing complex Power BI dashboards, dataflows, and DAX calculations.
  • Strong understanding of dataset management, row-level security (RLS), and performance optimization.
  • Advanced proficiency in ETL tools and Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT), including SSIS.
  • Strong SQL skills and experience with relational databases (e.g., SQL Server, PostgreSQL)
  • Experience with data warehousing concepts, dimensional modeling, and building scalable reporting systems.
  • Strong critical thinking, troubleshooting, and root cause analysis capabilities.
  • Familiarity with the FX industry or experience with trading platforms like MT4/MT5.
