• Dimensional modeling and layered/semantic-layer design
• 4+ years of hands-on Tableau (Desktop, Prep, Server/Cloud), including LOD expressions, data source design, and performance tuning. Other BI tools don't substitute
• Experience working within BI standards (CoE, code review, Git)
• Everyday use of AI as a working partner for ideation and QC, with the judgment to verify its output

How You'll Standout
