Technical Analyst (Transportation Systems Expert)

Job Title: Technical Analyst (Transportation Systems Expert)
Location: Fully Remote
Contract Type & Duration: 4-6 month contract
Start Date: Immediately
Hours: Flexible schedule with weekend availability required during deployments
Overview: HM Responsibilities span building API-driven data integrations between their third party software SQL Server database, building new database structures (tables, stored procedures, views), and reporting in SSRS, Excel.

• Looking for a technical candidate, ideally with some background in the transportation industry, working with transportation data to understand the business context.
• Needs strong database experience - SQL Server. HM has already designed the existing tables, schemas, stored procedures, data validation checks; however, this is not a project-based role, but someone who can support them long-term, spin up new databases and database structures.
• Should have API development experience - they are primarily using Python for API builds - to integrate software with their database. Existing integrations with 2 3rd party vendors, but future could require internal integrations from one application to another as well.
• Will also be responsible for testing APIs using Postman (additional API testing tools are acceptable).
• Reporting today is primarily in SSRS - have 17 existing reports they need to rewrite. Other groups are using Tableau/Power BI. Would be a nice to have skill.
• Should have experience in views, semantic layers for reporting.
• Consumers of the reports vary - telematics team, routers, drivers, financial groups, reports right to customers (i.e. Whole Foods).
• Both scheduled and ad-hoc reports, all batch.
• Candidates he's been receiving have been heavy on the QA side, not builders.

Must Have:

• SQL Server database development (building schemas, tables, stored procedures, views)
• T-SQL
• Python (for APIs and data cleaning)
• API development (integrations)
• API testing (Postman or similar)
• Data visualization/reports development (SSRS)
• Transportation domain experience (would consider a candidate without)

Nice to Have:

• Samsara or OT1
