- Implement row-level security, sensitivity labels, and Power BI Service governance
- Train client teams on dashboard usage; document data models, refresh schedules, and lineage
- Maintain version control and CI/CD for Power BI artifacts using deployment pipelines
- Optimise dashboard performance including aggregations, composite models, and incremental refresh
- Govern semantic model changes and partner with Data Engineering on upstream contracts
- Own dashboard incident response when refreshes fail or measures regress

AI Tools Proficiency
Production engineering at Unico Connect assumes AI tools form part of the daily workflow rather than an experimental augmentation. For this role specifically:
- Copilot in Power BI for DAX drafting and report assistance
- Claude or GPT for DAX and SQL review
- Cursor for SQL and Python visual code files
- AI-assisted text-to-DAX tools for measure prototyping
What we look for at Unico Connect
Every Unico role expects the same underlying traits — regardless of department or seniority. If these resonate, apply.
Fluent with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Figma AI, or whatever is relevant to your craft. We expect AI tools in the loop, not as a novelty.
Fast cycles, real ownership, low ceremony. You will not be a cog.
Output and outcomes matter more than process. You ship work that moves a metric.
You treat the codebase, the deliverable, and the client relationship as your own.
You joined because you want to ship amazing tech products, not warm a seat.
