Senior Business Analyst

AspenView Technology Partners creates nearshore IT teams that help North American clients innovate and operate more efficiently. The Senior Business Analyst will support an enterprise-wide data modernization effort by translating business requirements into reporting and data solutions using Power BI, Microsoft Fabric, and Azure data services. The role partners with stakeholders across business functions to improve analytics delivery, data governance, and measurable business outcomes.

Responsibilities:

• Partner with business leaders across manufacturing, finance, sales, operations, procurement, and marketing to define reporting needs
• Document KPIs, metrics, dimensional structures, and semantic logic to support standardized reporting models
• Ensure Power BI datasets and dashboards meet business objectives: accurate, timely, secure, and actionable
• Support validation and user acceptance testing (UAT) for new reports and data products before deployment
• Map current business processes, data flows, and dependencies across ERP (Dynamics 365 / AX) and integrated systems
• Work closely with data engineers to guide the transformations needed to structure analytics-ready data
• Help define data quality rules, governance standards, and master data requirements
• Identify opportunities for automation, self-service analytics, and data democratization
• Track enhancement requests and maintain a prioritized backlog aligned with enterprise strategy

Requirements:

• The successful candidate must be a U.S. Person as defined under ITAR: resident in the United States and either a U.S. citizen or a lawful permanent resident (Green Card holder)
• Bachelor's degree in Business, Data Analytics, Industrial Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field, or equivalent work experience
• 5+ years in business analysis, data analysis, or a similar role
• Strong experience writing functional requirements and BI solution documentation in an Agile environment
• Proven ability to facilitate workshops, communicate with technical and non-technical audiences, and present findings to executive stakeholders
• practical understanding of reports, dashboards, datasets, and workspace organization
• especially Dynamics 365 / Dynamics AX
• work orders, BOMs, routing, costing, throughput, and supply chain
• familiarity with SQL-based data environments and the ability to perform basic data exploration and validation
• exposure to Agile methodologies and Azure DevOps for backlog and work item management
• You hold a point of view and state it, including to senior stakeholders, and reopen decisions when new evidence warrants it
• You ask why a process, data model, or reporting standard exists before extending it, rather than replicating a pattern because it is already there
• You surface risk, ambiguity, and weak requirements the moment you notice them, not at the sprint review or at go-live
• You work past the assigned ticket, propose better approaches, and leave the team's practice stronger than you found it
• You argue from evidence and change position on evidence; comfortable being wrong in public, uncomfortable staying quiet
• Experience with Microsoft Fabric, OneLake, and Fabric Link integrations
• Knowledge of marketing and sales data flows and attribution models
• Understanding of financial reporting hierarchies and cost accounting structures
• Experience working closely with data engineering teams or within DataOps environments
