About the role
The data warehouse is central to how the business operates, serving multiple stakeholders including executives, finance, operations, and clinic-level providers and staff. The Analytics Engineer will own the SQL side of the house, designing, building, and maintaining the reporting view layer, translating business definitions into SQL logic, and ensuring data quality and performance.
Responsibilities
- Own the reporting schema: Design, build, and maintain the reporting view layer of the SQL Server / Azure SQL data warehouse.
- Translate business definitions into durable SQL logic so metrics are defined once, in one place, and reused everywhere.
- Own the structure of the Analysis Services / Power BI semantic models, ensuring tables, relationships, and core measures are clean and performant.
- Build validation checks and reconciliation queries to catch and resolve discrepancies before stakeholders notice them.
- Write efficient T-SQL, tune queries and views, and decide when to use indexed views, materialized tables, or redesign the schema.
- Maintain clear documentation of the reporting schema, metric definitions, and data lineage.
- Use AI-assisted development tools to draft, review, and debug complex SQL, ensuring correctness before deployment.
- Partner with data engineering on upstream schema changes, with BI developers on model needs, and with business stakeholders to define precise data definitions.
Requirements
- 3+ years working hands-on with SQL Server or Azure SQL in an analytics, data warehousing, or reporting context.
- Expert-level T-SQL skills, including complex joins, window functions, CTEs, and the ability to judge query correctness.
- Real experience with dimensional modeling and reporting-layer design, such as star schemas, conformed dimensions, and slowly changing logic.
- Working knowledge of the Microsoft BI stack, including Analysis Services (tabular), Power BI semantic models, and DAX.
- Comfort using AI-assisted development tools like GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, or Claude to draft, review, and debug SQL.
- A track record of turning vague business questions into precise data definitions and defending data quality.

- Version-controlled model development experience (TMDL, Tabular Editor, Git-based workflows) is a plus.

- Experience with modern analytics engineering tooling and practices (dbt or similar) is a plus.
- Experience evaluating or adopting AI-assisted BI features (Power BI Copilot, natural language query tools) is a plus.
