When developing a new data visualization dashboard, I would first gather requirements to understand the specific needs of stakeholders. Then, I would identify the key metrics to display, design a user-friendly layout, and utilize tools like Power BI or Tableau to create engaging visuals while ensuring the underlying data is accurate and well-structured.

My experience with SQL spans multiple projects where I’ve used it to extract and manipulate data from relational databases. In this role, I would leverage SQL to query manufacturing production data, ensuring I have the necessary data sets for analysis and visualization, thus elevating insights from the data.

I am familiar with Python, Ruby, and JavaScript. I have utilized Python for data analysis and automation of tasks, while JavaScript has helped me create interactive web visualizations. Each language has allowed me to improve workflows and enhance data presentation in my previous roles.

In a previous role, I faced a project where data from multiple sources was inconsistent, making analysis difficult. I established a process to validate and clean the data, collaborating closely with my team to ensure quality and accuracy, ultimately delivering actionable insights to management.

To ensure accuracy with large datasets, I implement a thorough validation process, including checks for duplicates, outliers, and correctness using both automated scripts and peer reviews. Regular audits and testing small data batches also help confirm data integrity before full-scale analysis.

In fast-paced environments, I use a combination of task management tools and prioritization frameworks. I break down projects into manageable tasks, set clear deadlines, and enjoy collaborating with the team to delegate effectively, ensuring we meet our goals without compromising quality.

I have extensively used Power Query to automate data transformation processes, which significantly reduced manual handling time. For example, I created a macro to streamline data entry, minimizing errors and speeding up report generation, enhancing overall productivity in my previous role.

The most essential skills for a Technical Power BI Business Analyst include strong analytical skills, proficiency in data visualization tools, SQL query writing, and the ability to communicate insights effectively. Additionally, a solid understanding of data management practices is crucial for success in this role.
