Technology Risk Analyst

Job Title - Technology Specialist - Power PI Enablement Location- St Louis, MO Duration- 06 Month+ Contract Summary This role is not about delivering production solutions for the business. It is about enablement: guiding associates through discovery, modeling, visualization, and publishing best practices so they can build and own their own reports and dashboards. You"ll blend strong Power BI + Excel skills with a talent for teaching and translating business questions into clear analytical outcomes.

• Facilitate discovery sessions, product demos, consultations, and interactive training on Microsoft 365 Copilot, Power Platform, and other available technology products.
• Coach associates in using Copilot and AI-assisted features to improve productivity, automate workflows, and accelerate knowledge work.
• Stay current on Microsoft 365, Copilot, and Power Platform feature updates and translate changes into practical guidance for associates.

• Provide beginner-to-advanced instruction (1:1 and group) on Power BI Desktop and the Power BI Service, including publish/share patterns, compliance expectations (privacy levels, Nestl policies), and governance-friendly practices (e.g., approved storage locations, documenting data sources, and establishing a backup owner).
• Coach associates on analytical problem framing: clarifying the business question, defining metrics, and selecting appropriate visual and storytelling approaches.
• Enable strong data modeling fundamentals: star schema concepts, relationships, grain, and reusable semantic models (datasets) where appropriate.

• Advanced Excel skills, including PivotTables, modern formulas (e.g., XLOOKUP), data cleansing, and comfort with Power Query; experience translating messy data into analysis-ready structures.
• Strong Power BI experience building and explaining end-to-end solutions: ingest -> transform -> model -> DAX measures -> report design -> publish/share.
• Solid understanding of data modeling concepts (relationships, star schema, dimensional thinking, grain) and how they impact report performance and usability.
• Demonstrated data analysis capability: defining KPIs/metrics, validating results, and communicating insights clearly to non-technical audiences.
• Proven experience teaching, coaching, or enabling others (formal training, office hours, documentation, or mentoring) with a focus on skill transfer.
• Strong interpersonal, written, and verbal communication skills; ability to lead outcomes-focused sessions with individuals and groups.
• Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills; able to diagnose modeling, DAX, or report design issues and guide users to resolution.
• Working proficiency with Microsoft 365 core tools (Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive, Outlook, PowerPoint) to deliver training and support at scale.

• Experience with Power BI governance and deployment concepts (workspaces, apps, refresh strategies, Row-Level Security), and comfort operating within enterprise guardrails.
• Familiarity with the broader Power Platform (Power Apps and Power Automate) and how BI integrates into citizen-built solutions.
• Basic SQL knowledge for data extraction/validation and effective collaboration with data owners.
• Experience creating reusable enablement assets (templates, standards, playbooks) and managing knowledge content.
• Exposure to Microsoft Fabric or related capacity/performance considerations.
