The Power BI & Azure Web App Developer is responsible for leading the analysis, design, development, testing, and deployment of data analytics solutions as well as Azure Web App for a Dashboard portal. The final deliverables for data analytics solutions can take many forms, such as data feeds, reports, dashboards/visualizations, data applications, and end-user reporting. This role plays a key role in designing and developing dashboard portal, defining the data structures and layers to ensure effective, consistent, and efficient delivery of analytics products to our members and employees.
ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Solution Design & Architecture
Design and implement scalable web application architecture hosted on Azure App Service (Web Apps), including environment strategy for Dev / QA / UAT / Prod.
Define API-driven rendering patterns (e.g., server-side rendering, SPA with API calls, or hybrid), and establish standards for data-fetching, caching, and error-handling.
Collaborate with data architects, product architects, and stakeholders to translate requirements into technical designs, including non-functional requirements (performance, resiliency, security, compliance).
Evaluate and recommend Azure services (e.g., API Management, Key Vault,
Application Insights, Front Door, Azure Cache for Redis) to meet reliability and scale needs.
Web Application Development (UI + Rendering)
Build responsive, accessible web interfaces that render content based on API responses, including robust UI states (loading, empty, partial, error).
Develop reusable UI components and page templates aligned to design standards and accessibility requirements.
Implement client-side and/or server-side rendering strategies optimized for performance.
Ensure consistent UX behavior across browsers and devices, including mobile-friendly layouts.
API Integration & Data Handling
Integrate APIs to retrieve reports and dashboards from analytics tools such as Power BI and WebFOCUS
Implement resilient API consumption patterns: retries with backoff (where appropriate) timeouts and cancellation circuit-breaker patterns (as applicable) graceful degradation and fallback UI
Transform and validate API payloads for presentation needs while maintaining data integrity.
Coordinate API contracts including versioning and backward compatibility planning.
Security, Identity & Access
Implement authentication and authorization using enterprise identity solutions (e.g., Microsoft Entra ID/Azure AD, OAuth2/OIDC).
Enforce secure coding practices: protect against common vulnerabilities (OWASP Top 10) input validation, output encoding, CSRF protection secure session/token handling
Manage secrets and certificates using Azure Key Vault (no secrets in code or config files).
Support role-based access control (RBAC) and claims-based authorization patterns across UI features and API access.
Azure App Service Configuration & Operations
Configure Azure Web App resources: deployment slots (blue/green or canary) autoscaling rules custom domains and TLS certificates app settings and connection strings
Implement environment-specific configuration management (feature flags, app settings, config providers).
Ensure high availability and reliability with appropriate scaling, health checks, and recovery patterns.
Perform routine maintenance: dependency updates, runtime upgrades, certificate renewals, and platform patch planning.
Data Engineering and Analysis
Identifies data needs of members and AF employees.
Collaborates with AF teams to define and execute strategies to gather data from multiple sources, creating and maintaining the necessary pipelines while conveying business and technical data needs for the development and deployment of data-based products.
Data Visualizations, Reporting and Data Feeds
Designs, builds, and manages data visualization, reporting and data feeds for internal and external users utilizing tools available.
Defines and applies consistent design for the user experience to minimize training needs and provide a common experience across the data analytics platform.
Advocates for advances required to deliver insights in new and innovative methods while also focusing on lifecycle maintenance of our data analytics, full breadth of solutions.
Power BI embedding
Embed Power BI content (Power BI Embedded vs user-based embedding), manage embed tokens, handle workspace/report identifiers, and align with Power BI admin settings.
Row-Level Security (RLS) / effective identity handling for embedded scenarios.
Report catalog / inventory management
Own the data model for the portal catalog (report metadata, owners, tags, audiences, environments, certification status, last refresh, deprecation status).
Implement CRUD/admin workflows (who can add/edit/remove listings; approval workflow if needed).
Data Accuracy and Solution Quality
Documents and maintains design deliverables and validates application results against calculations and data definitions to ensure quality of products delivered.
Conducts testing, follows defect tracking processes to deliver quality solutions. Supports the quality assurance, testing, and production release processes.
Partners with Data Governance and Data Architecture to ensure that data is declared in the enterprise taxonomy catalog and managed according to data governance policies.
Security
This role is responsible for following AF Security standards and ensuring the security model and best practices are built into deliverables.
The Data Analytics Developer utilizes the AF security standard processes to ensure member data is secured.
Production Support
Proactively follows up on production support tickets or any other reported data discrepancies providing leadership on the prioritization of support activities.
Performs incident investigation and service restoration.
Change and Configuration Management Duties
Responsible for version control, change management processes and impact analysis of changes. This includes maintaining the inventory of reports, summaries of changes and driving creation and prioritization of the product backlog.
Leads deployment of solutions, including collaboration across AF to ensure seamless and efficient implementation.
