Analyst- Data

WSI is accelerating our modern, AI-centered data platform on Microsoft Fabric. We’re seeking a hands-on Data Analyst who executes quickly and reliably, with strong data-architecture instincts. The design patterns and target state are defined; your focus is to build, ship, and harden pipelines, data models, and analytics that power Operations, Finance, HR, Customer Service, and our direct customers. A core expectation is delivering unified, cross–business-unit data solutions that span Fulfillment, Traditional, Chemical, and Transportation—regardless of underlying technology stacks. Fabric experience is mandatory; AWS and Terraform (Infrastructure as Code) are strongly preferred.

This role is measured on speed to value, data quality, and adoption of reporting & visualizations. You will also embrace AI—from development acceleration to improving the internal user experience and copiloting analytics workflows across the organization.

DUTIES AND ACCOUNTABILITIES:

• Analyst and maintain Microsoft Fabric data products: Create production‑grade data pipelines (Data Factory in Fabric), Lakehouse/Warehouse tables (Delta), notebooks (Py/Spark), Dataflows Gen2, semantic models, and Power BI datasets & reports.
• Execute the blueprint: Apply WSI’s established data architecture (medallion layers, naming conventions, CICD, SCD strategy, orchestration patterns) with a bias to deliver quickly and iterate.
• Operationalize analytics: Partner with Operations, Finance/Accounting, HR, Customer Service, and key customers to turn requirements into curated data products, semantic models, and print‑friendly, decision‑ready visuals.
• Consolidation BI/Reporting Tools: Experience in decommissioning many BI/Reporting tools into one without impacting business expectations.
• AI in the loop: Use AI to speed development (e.g., code assist, doc generation), automate data documentation & lineage summaries, and enhance analyst/end‑user workflows (Copilot for Power BI, natural‑language query, RAG patterns for help & FAQs).
• Data quality & reliability: Implement validation, unit/integration tests, observability, and SLAs; monitor freshness, completeness, and pipeline success rates.
• Release management: Use Git‑enabled Fabric workspaces and CI/CD to promote artifacts across environments with automated checks.
  
  

REQUIRED KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS, AND ABILITIES:

• Microsoft Fabric experience (must‑have) across several of: Data Factory (pipelines), Lakehouse/Warehouse, OneLake, Notebooks (PySpark/Python), Dataflows Gen2, Power BI semantic models and report lifecycle.
• Strong SQL (T‑SQL/Delta), dimensional modeling (star/snowflake), incremental load patterns (SCD, CDC), and performance tuning.
• Microsoft Power BI (UI) report building experience is a must with professional design style standards to deliver end customer facing visualizations.
• Experience building clean, usable Power BI datasets (calcs, relationships, RLS) and supporting reporting & visualization best practices.
• Familiarity with Git workflows and CI/CD for analytics (branching, PRs, environment promotion).
• Evidence of using AI to accelerate delivery (e.g., code assistants, Copilot, prompt‑assisted documentation/testing) and to enhance the end‑user experience.
• Excellent communicator with the ability to translate business needs into technical back end to execute the business strategy while remaining safe, secure and performant processes across the organization.
