Design and build a clear analytical UI for results, charts, and AI-generated summaries. Support the existing Power BI environment, including data models, DAX measures, and calculated tables. Design and maintain API gateways for governed data access across the warehouse, Power BI, and AI application. Integrate portfolio reporting data, project information, and health metrics from tools such as Smartsheet, Jira, Clarity PPM, ServiceNow, and SAP.

Strong SQL and data warehouse experience, including schema design, joins, performance, and platforms such as Snowflake, BigQuery, or Redshift. Hands-on experience with LLM APIs, including prompt engineering, tool calling, structured outputs, and summarization. Practical experience with RAG architecture, embeddings, vector databases, and common failure modes. Front-end experience building analytical interfaces using React/Next.js and charting or data-grid libraries. Ability to work independently in ambiguous, 0-to-1 environments and document key architecture decisions. Strong technical and functional documentation skills. Experience designing governed API layers across multiple systems and consumers. Strong UI/UX judgment with a focus on clear, accessible, data-driven experiences. Solid engineering fundamentals, including testing, CI/CD, version control, code review, and performance optimization. Proven track record of developing comprehensive dashboards to monitor business performance, focusing on financial health, forecast-to-actual variance, trend analysis, pipeline prioritization, and strategic outcome value metrics. Excellent communication skills with the ability to translate complex technical concepts for varied audiences. Experience with LLM orchestration or agent frameworks such as LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen, or custom state-machine orchestration. Experience evaluating LLM output accuracy and identifying unsupported or hallucinated results. Preferred Qualifications Power BI experience, including data models, DAX measures, and calculated tables. Experience with portfolio tools such as Smartsheet or Clarity PPM, and integrations with Jira, SAP, or ServiceNow. Familiarity with semantic layer tools such as dbt metrics, Cube, or LookML. Cloud and containerization experience using AWS, GCP, Azure, or Docker. Experience with caching layers such as Redis for latency-sensitive workloads. The conversation explored both technical and business-facing requirements. Core Technical Requirements Discussed Power BI development experience ETL experienceSnowflake knowledge Reporting platform expertise (future-state need) Reporting development background Additional Desired Skills Smartsheet experience was mentioned as a desirable but difficult-to-find qualification. Experience Level The original role referenced: Senior-level experience Five-plus years of experience The participants also discussed remaining flexible and evaluating candidates based on actual capability rather than strictly on years of experience. Onsite Expectations Four days per week onsite. Schedule Expectations The candidate must be flexible enough to support stakeholders across multiple time zones. The discussion highlighted: East Coast candidates may need to work later hours. West Coast candidates may need earlier starts. The goal is reasonable overlap with both coasts rather than extreme schedules. #J-18808-Ljbffr Siri InfoSolutions Inc
