About this role | Mō tēnei tūranga mahi
Theta is seeking an experienced Lead Analytics Engineer to join the Data and Insights Practice, based in our Wellington office. This is a priority hire within a team that values delivery excellence and a sustainable pace of work.
This role is centred on analytics outcomes: partnering with customers to turn business questions into trusted reporting, governed metrics, and high-quality semantic models. You’ll work closely with client stakeholders, solution architects, and delivery teams, with delivery centred on Microsoft Fabric and the Azure Data Platform.
The objective is consistent, reliable implementation that enables measurable business outcomes through well-modelled data, clear definitions of truth, and analytics products that teams actually adopt.
What the role delivers
Lead discovery conversations and workshops to understand what customers truly need from their data, beyond the initial request
Translate business questions into clear analytics deliverables: semantic models, measures, reporting requirements, and definitions of truth
Design and deliver analytics solutions in Microsoft Fabric across Data Factory / dataflows, Lakehouses/warehouses, OneLake, and semantic models
Develop and maintain transformation logic using SQL and Python (Fabric notebooks / PySpark where appropriate) to produce analytics-ready datasets
Model data for both the warehouse and semantic layer, applying star schema / dimensional modelling best practice
Design and build Power BI reports and dashboards that are clear, performant, and answer the question asked (Power BI is a strong requirement)
Build and maintain semantic models, including DAX measures, performance optimisation, and maintainable model design
Surface insights customers didn’t ask for — trends, anomalies, opportunities — and explain them in plain language
Document models, measures, pipelines, and metric definitions so customers can confidently maintain what we hand over
Provide clear communication on progress, risks, dependencies, and blockers to stakeholders and delivery leadership
Promote consistent delivery patterns across documentation, peer review, and analytics standards
Mentor team members, supporting capability uplift and delivery confidence
Contribute to Theta delivery assets including templates, reusable components, documentation, and continuous improvement initiatives
Please note: A cover letter accompanying your application is requested
Skills and experience | Ngā pūkenga me ngā wheako
A minimum of 4+ years Power BI experience is essential
4+ Years experience within a consulting environment is required
Significant experience delivering analytics solutions in enterprise environments, including stakeholder engagement, modelling, and production support considerations
Excellent interpersonal skills essential
Strong experience delivering with Microsoft Fabric (e.g., Power BI, Azure Data Factory / dataflows, Lakehouse/warehouse, OneLake, notebooks, Delta tables, workspace organisation)
Strong data modelling capability for analytics workloads (dimensional modelling / star schema)
Strong SQL capability for querying, profiling, transformation, and modelling
Working proficiency in Python (including Fabric notebooks / PySpark where relevant)
Strong experience building and maintaining semantic models and measures (including DAX)
Strong experience producing Power BI reporting solutions that are performant and business-friendly
Understanding of governed analytics delivery: data quality, definitions of truth, and security-by-design practices
Delivery discipline: Git, CI/CD, testing, and monitoring practices appropriate to the engagement
Strong stakeholder engagement and communication skills across technical and non-technical audiences
Experience mentoring others and/or providing technical leadership in analytics delivery
Relevant Microsoft certifications (or a commitment to ongoing professional development) are beneficial
Experience using AI coding assistants, including GitHub Copilot or Claude coding agent
About You:
You bring analytics engineering depth and genuine comfort working directly with customers. You can run discovery, translate ambiguity into clear scope, and deliver trusted reporting and semantic models that stakeholders understand and adopt.
You care about high standards, maintainability, reliability, and clarity. Balanced with delivery timelines and commercial realities. You’re collaborative, give and receive constructive feedback well, and enjoy mentoring others.
Applications are welcomed from experienced Analytics Engineers who want meaningful client interaction, ownership of outcomes, and the opportunity to shape how a growing practice delivers.
