Power BI Principal Consultant

Why This Job is Different (and why you'll love it)

You'll do work that actually matters to clients. You know why you're doing it and who it's going to help. If you don't believe it will help, we change gears to something that does.

Direct client contact. Nobody in between translating requirements. Real conversations with real people about real problems.

Small, senior, hands-on team. No offshore relay races, no bureaucracy, no consultant theater. We never push the wrong thing just because it bills more hours.

You'll work with AI the way our senior team already does: as a lever, not a crutch. Every consultant here has hands on it from week one, and uses it to meet clients on whatever stack they already run. You'll ship more, catch more, and think bigger.

What You'll Actually Do

The Human Stuff:

• Be the trusted advisor who translates business frustrations into technical wins
• Guide clients from "we have data but can't use it" to "we're excited to come to work"
• Train and enable client teams. We're not trying to create dependency, human or AI

The Analytics Stuff:

• Model business reality into semantic layers that scale
• Write DAX and Power Query that turn data chaos into trust
• Own the whole stack, source to model to visual to decision, so nothing gets lost in the handoff

The AI Stuff:

• Interrogate client data models directly. We've built MCP servers that let Claude read and shape semantic models, so you can prototype and pressure-test a solve at conversation speed
• Turn a discovery call into a working prototype in the same session using our AI publishing layer, so a client can see and click a real answer before the meeting ends
• Build reusable skills and tools when the same client problem shows up twice. You're growing our leverage, not just delivering work
Catch what AI misses. You know a wrong model or lazy join looks fine to an LLM. You're the reason our clients trust the answer

What We Offer

• Base Salary: $100,000

• Incentive Program: Grow relationships, grow your income

• Full Benefits Package: Medical, dental, vision, life, 401k - the works

• Remote Work: US-based team. Your home office wherever makes you happiest

• Professional Growth: We're not surviving the AI wave, we're building on top of it. You'll go deeper on Claude, Fabric, Copilot, and the workflow patterns that turn one consultant into a consulting team of one

What You Need

Technical and AI Chops:

• Advanced Power BI, DAX, and Power Query. You know why context transition matters and can catch a measure that looks right but isn't
• Dimensional modeling that scales. Anti-patterns catch your eye before they catch a client
• You've used AI in real client or production work. You can point to something an AI helped you ship and describe exactly where it was wrong before you fixed it
• You treat AI output as a starting draft, not a final answer. You verify, you test, you know how it fails

Human Skills:

• You care as much about business impact as technical polish
• You can translate executive frustration into technical and human solves
• You don't just deliver dashboards. You earn trust by helping clients think differently
• Comfortable presenting to a C-suite or a front-line manager

Logistics:

• US Citizenship or Green Card. This position does not sponsor work visas
• Strong written and spoken English
