Why this role is exciting!

As an Associate BI Engineer I, your focus will be on delivering small tasks for the squad, testing end to end, assisting QA with Staging environments and fixing broken builds. This role assumes that you have an understanding of all aspects of a language and are able to apply previous solutions to new problems independently. You should have practical experience in common design patterns, using unit tests for new code, and adding missing unit tests to legacy code with practical exposure to CI, and integration tests. You will also have practical exposure to at least 1 cloud platform where you should be confident using the console and building basic apps in the cloud.

At this level, you are expected to be confident reusing existing frameworks and work independently when completing tasks that you have been exposed to before. Another aspect of the role will be assisting the BI team with continuous improvement and quality management, performing data quality assurance and exposing potential ‘noisy’ areas within the company from a workflow perspective. During sprint planning and design sessions, you should feel comfortable asking “why” to understand the business reason behind your tasks.

You will also help with environment setup and onboarding of new members.
