JOB DESCRIPTION:

Data Modeler required for a vacancy at PBT Group.

 

Duties:

  • Create and implement comprehensive logical and physical data models.
  • Perform detailed data analysis in order to develop the data warehouse’s / BI solution’s data model.
  • Involved in the requirements definition process.
  • Assist the ETL Analysts / Business Analysts with the specification of the source to target mappings.

Required Skills:

  • Knowledge about existing corporate data models, as well as knowledge of the business, is extremely important.
  • Strong conventional (normalised) data modeling skills are beneficial, as the Data Modeler often has to be able to read and understand existing data models.

  • Experience working on other data warehousing projects is essential (full life cycle).
  • Understanding of data warehousing and data mart architectures.
  • An exposure to end-user reporting tools and their capabilities is useful.
  • Have a quick grasp and understanding of data models, be able to see things abstractly, for example to derive the common model and represent related business concepts generically.
  • Be very meticulous, as the data warehouse data model should be exact and complete – attention to detail is a very important characteristic.
  • Well versed in conceptual and logical data modeling.
  • Understand advanced analytical data requirements.
  • Understand the data requirements of front-end (reporting, dashboarding and analysis tools.)

 

 

Required Qualifications / Training:

  • Data warehouse design methodology training.
  • Normalised and dimensional data modeling training.
  • Must have worked with industry standard data modeling tools.
  • Strong experience working with a range of DBMS’s.
