• Develop SQL queries and work directly with SQL databases to investigate, validate, and prepare data for reporting
• Help identify data quality issues, inconsistencies, and gaps that impact reporting accuracy
• Work with data from legacy, disparate, and enterprise systems and understand how those systems feed downstream reporting
• Support data ingestion and transformation activities when necessary, including working with Azure Data Factory (ADF)
• Develop dashboards and reports that make complex enterprise data accessible and actionable to technical and business stakeholders
• Optimize Power BI reports, data models, queries, and visualizations for enterprise use
• Collaborate with backend data engineering resources on data requirements, pipeline dependencies, and reporting architecture
• Document reporting solutions, data sources, data relationships, and technical dependencies Qualifications of the Front-End/BI Data Engineer:
• 3-4 years of hands-on Data Engineering, Business Intelligence, or BI/Data Reporting experience

• Experience working with enterprise datasets and preparing data for reporting
• Experience integrating or working with data from multiple, disparate, or legacy systems
