- Support capacity planning, performance optimization, and load testing for large-scale DirectQuery workloads.
- Troubleshoot complex issues involving Power BI, Microsoft Fabric, identity management, connectivity, and data access.
- Collaborate with cloud infrastructure, identity and access management (IAM), security, and data platform teams.
- Create reusable engineering patterns, documentation, operational procedures, and runbooks.
- Support onboarding of new business teams and improve onboarding processes through automation.
- Work directly with end users and stakeholders to resolve technical issues and improve platform adoption.
- Contribute to platform engineering initiatives based on evolving business priorities.

- Experience with platform automation, scripting, or infrastructure-as-code concepts.
- Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
- Ability to work within highly governed enterprise environments with complex security and compliance requirements.
Preferred Qualifications - Experience with Google Looker.
- Experience with OAuth, Single Sign-On (SSO), identity federation, or enterprise IAM solutions.
