Performance, Administration, and Governance* Tune report and model performance using Performance Analyzer, DAX Studio, Tabular Editor, and VertiPaq Analyzer.* Improve refresh processes through incremental refresh, query folding, and efficient partitioning.* Administer Power BI Service, including workspaces, deployment pipelines, datasets, gateways, refresh schedules, and capacity.* Implement row-level and object-level security while following data governance, access, and compliance standards.* Establish CI/CD and version control for BI assets wherever possible.* Monitor usage, refresh failures, and capacity, and proactively resolve issues.Required Qualifications* Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field.* 10+ years of Business Intelligence experience, with a strong focus on Power BI and enterprise reporting.* Advanced SQL skills and hands-on experience developing complex, optimized queries in Google BigQuery.* Strong understanding of data engineering and data warehousing, including ETL/ELT, dimensional modelling, and data pipelines.* Expert semantic model design capabilities, including advanced DAX, M-Query, star and snowflake schemas, and composite models.* Expert proficiency with Power BI Desktop and Power BI Report Builder (paginated reports).* Extensive Power BI Service experience, including publishing, security, administration, and gateway configuration.* Strong understanding of BigQuery architecture, including tables, views, materialized views, partitioning, and clustering.* Proven ability to connect Power BI to BigQuery and other sources and optimize data refresh.* Demonstrated experience gathering requirements directly from business users and documenting logic and specifications.* Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.* Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced agile environment. *Everforth Apex is a world-class IT services company that serves thousands of clients across the globe.
