JOB DESCRIPTION:

Data Modeler required for a vacancy at PBT Group.

 

Duties:

  • Create and implement comprehensive logical and physical data models.

  • Involved in the requirements definition process.

  • 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.)
