Proven experience designing and implementing analytics architectures that bring data from operational databases (e.g. PostgreSQL or similar) into modern analytics platforms, enabling performant, scalable Power BI reporting.
Strong data modelling expertise, with hands-on experience building dimensional or analytical models optimised for query performance, (cost)-efficiency, consistency, and reuse across multiple customers and use cases.
Advanced SQL skills and practical experience transforming operational data into analytics-ready datasets using tools such as Microsoft Fabric, dbt, and Power BI (or equivalent modern data stack components).
Demonstrated experience delivering customer-facing analytics, translating complex transactional and operational data into clear, trusted insights consumed by external customers.
Experience working with other technology functions in a highly collaborative product team.
Commercial awareness in analytics, with the ability to identify opportunities for additional data products, enhanced analytical services, or premium insight offerings that build on existing data assets.
