[Remote] Data Analytics Engineer (Snowflake + DBT+ Power BI)
Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Icon Global Technologies is seeking a Data Analytics Engineer to bridge the gap between data engineers and data analysts. The role focuses on refactoring existing data models and designing analytics-ready tables to support the migration to Power BI, ensuring analytical accuracy and performance.
Responsibilities
• Collaborate with analytics engineers, data analysts, and business stakeholders to assess existing data models and identify opportunities for fact and dimension refactoring in support of Power BI migration
• Design and implement dimensional data models (facts, dimensions, conformed dimensions) aligned with best practices and reporting requirements
• Recommend the most appropriate dimensional modeling approach or consolidation based on report usage patterns, grain, and analytical needs
• Develop and maintain analytics engineering pipelines in Snowflake using dbt, SQL, and established modeling standards
• Refactor and extend existing data models to improve clarity, reuse, performance, and analytical correctness
• Partner with analysts and BI developers to validate metrics, relationships, and grain, ensuring models accurately support downstream reporting
• Support Power BI semantic models by aligning table structures, relationships, and metric definitions with visualization and performance requirements
• Implement data quality checks, validation logic, and testing frameworks to ensure trusted and reliable datasets
• Optimize SQL transformations and model structures to improve performance and manage warehouse compute usage
• Document dimensional models, design decisions, assumptions, and usage guidance to support adoption and long‑term sustainability
• Participate in Agile or iterative delivery workflows and effectively manage time across multiple priorities and deliverables
• Collaborate with data engineers and architects as needed to resolve upstream data issues and align modeling approaches
• Utilize modern analytics development practices, including version control, code review, and documentation
• Support knowledge transfer and handoff to internal team members to ensure continuity beyond the contract period
Skills
• Advanced SQL for analytics engineering, including complex transformations, aggregations, and performance tuning
• Strong dimensional data modeling skills, including design and implementation of fact and dimension tables
• Hands-on experience with Snowflake as a Cloud data warehouse for analytics workloads
• Experience developing and maintaining analytics models using dbt, including testing and documentation
• Proven ability to refactor existing analytical data models to support reporting and dashboard migrations
• Experience supporting enterprise BI platforms, preferably Power BI, including semantic model alignment
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to evaluate trade-offs and recommend optimal modeling approaches
• Ability to collaborate effectively with analytics engineers, data analysts, and BI developers to validate models and metrics
• Strong written and verbal communication skills to explain modeling decisions, assumptions, and results
• Experience working with data sourced from EMR systems (ex. Epic)
• Experience with Apache Airflow or similar workflow orchestration tools for scheduling and managing analytics pipelines
• Experience using Python for data transformation, validation, automation, or analytics workflows
• Experience with version control and modern analytics development practices (e.g., Git, pull requests, code reviews)
• Experience supporting BI platform migrations (e.g., Qlik, Business Objects, or similar to Power BI)
• Familiarity with Agile or iterative delivery practices
