Oversee integration with Power BI, supporting report delivery and cross-platform data flows.
Collaborate with Platform, Database engineers, and infrastructure teams to provision, secure, and optimize new database technologies.
Implement and manage robust security models, including LDAP/Active Directory integration, user role creation, and project-level access controls.
Ensure compliance with enterprise security guidelines and participate in audits as required.
Respond to high-priority production incidents, perform root cause analysis, and drive resolution across teams.
Provide deployment, upgrade, and troubleshooting support for multiple enterprise projects, maintaining required service levels.
Work effectively in fast-paced, multi-tasking enterprise and virtual environments.
Partner with business, analytics, and engineering teams to deliver secure, governed, and high-performing BI solutions.
Document system configurations, procedures, and operational guidelines.
