Cognizant is hiring a Power BI Architect

About the Role

As a Power BI Architect, you will play a key role in shaping enterprise data strategy by designing and deploying robust analytics solutions. Leveraging Power BI Service Premium and Microsoft Fabric, you'll build scalable reporting frameworks that support organizational decision-making across business units.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and implement end-to-end data solutions using Power BI Report Builder and Power BI Service to enable effective visualization and reporting.
  • Collaborate with business and technical teams to gather requirements and transform data needs into functional, high-performance dashboards.
  • Integrate Google BigQuery with Power BI for seamless data access and optimize query performance across large datasets.
  • Develop advanced data models using DAX and ensure efficient data modeling practices to support complex analytics.
  • Enforce security, governance, and compliance standards across the Power BI tenant environment.
  • Use MS Power Automate to streamline data workflows and enhance reporting automation.
  • Maintain data integrity through SQL-based database management and performance tuning in MS Excel and backend systems.
  • Lead assessments of current data platforms, identify optimization opportunities, and implement improvements to increase system efficiency.
  • Ensure alignment between technical deliverables and business goals by working closely with stakeholders across functions.
  • Integrate domain-specific knowledge, particularly in merchandising, to tailor analytics solutions that support targeted outcomes.
  • Stay current with evolving data technologies and apply best practices in data management and reporting.

Qualifications

You bring deep experience in Power BI ecosystems, including Fabric, DAX, and tenant-level administration. Proficiency in SQL, data modeling, and governance is essential. You’re skilled in translating technical insights for non-technical audiences and thrive in a hybrid work environment where independent initiative and collaboration go hand in hand.

Experience with merchandising or retail analytics is a valuable asset, enabling more informed solution design within that domain.
