* Financial and procurement systems - including Unifier and Hexagon Smart Materials for:
* Commitments, invoices, and change orders
* Procurement status, material tracking, and delivery milestones
* Use APIs or automated data pipelines (where available) to enable:
* Direct connections from these platforms into Power BI
* Automatic refreshes with minimal manual intervention
* Develop and maintain data models, relationships, and DAX measures, and troubleshoot data quality and refresh issues.
Standards, Templates & Reuse
* Develop standard dashboard templates for recurring use cases, including:
* Construction admin dashboards (RFIs, submittals, daily reports)
* Scheduling dashboards (P6 integration)
* Financial/procurement dashboards (Unifier, Smart Materials)
* Define and document standard measures, naming conventions, and visual patterns to ensure consistent reporting across programs and clients.
* Maintain lightweight documentation and handover guides so dashboards can be adopted and scaled.
Collaboration with BIM, Construction, Automation & AI
* Partner with:
* BIM managers to consume model and coordination data into dashboards.
* Construction and project managers to align dashboards with CA workflows, P6 updates, and financial/procurement processes.
* Provide data/visualization support for internal pilots, R&D initiatives, and executive reporting related to digital delivery, automation, and AI.

* Construction financial or procurement data (e.g., Unifier, Hexagon Smart Materials, or comparable tools)
* Comfort working with APIs or ETL tools to connect external systems to Power BI, and to configure automated data refresh.
* Strong analytical and problem-solving skills; ability to deal with imperfect, fragmented data and improve it over time.
* Clear, concise communication skills and the ability to work with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
Ideally, you'll have:
