- Collaborate with Business Intelligence developers, analytics teams, data engineering, IT, Finance, and business stakeholders to clarify requirements, validate metrics, resolve data issues, and deliver aligned reporting solutions.
- Participate in Business Integration developer communities, technical reviews, working sessions, and cross-business-unit initiatives to promote standards, reusable solutions, shared practices, and knowledge transfer.
- Evaluate existing enterprise data products, semantic models, datasets, and reporting assets before creating new solutions to promote reuse and reduce unnecessary duplication.
- Implement and maintain row-level security, object-level security, sensitivity labels, and workspace access controls in accordance with company data-governance and security requirements.
- Build scalable solutions that support common requirements across business units while meeting specific operational needs of Manufacturing and Supply Chain teams.

- Create and maintain comprehensive technical documentation for every Power BI report, Power Automate flow, Power Apps application, and related digital solution using the approved organizational template.
- Establish technical documentation at project initiation and complete or update it before production release and project closeout.
- Document business purpose, scope, ownership, requirements, data sources, connections, relationships, transformation logic, calculations, security, dependencies, environments, refresh or trigger schedules, capacity considerations, deployment approach, testing results, support procedures, known limitations, and change history as applicable.
- Treat approved and current technical documentation as a required production deliverable before a digital solution is considered complete.
- Comply with safety policies, protect confidential information, communicate effectively, contribute to team goals, and maintain the highest standards of honesty and integrity.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university in Computer Science, Data Analytics, Information Systems, Engineering, Business Analytics, Supply Chain Management, or a related field; equivalent combinations of relevant education, technical training, certification, and practical experience may be considered.
- Three (3) to five (5) years of hands-on experience developing and supporting Power BI reports, dashboards, semantic models, and production datasets.
- Ability to independently deliver a reporting solution from requirements and source-data assessment through development, validation, publishing, refresh configuration, deployment, documentation, and support.
- Advanced understanding of dimensional modeling, star schemas, fact and dimension tables, data grain, primary and foreign keys, one-to-many and many-to-many relationships, filter direction, role-playing dimensions, and date tables.
- Demonstrated ability to diagnose inaccurate results caused by data-modeling, relationship, filter-context, or source-data issues.
- Advanced DAX skills, including measures, filter context, time intelligence, variables, iterators, and reusable calculation patterns.
- Strong Power Query and M skills, including data shaping, merge and append operations, parameters, error handling, and query-folding awareness.
- Demonstrated experience improving report responsiveness, semantic-model efficiency, and refresh performance.
- Knowledge of model-size reduction, cardinality management, Import, DirectQuery, composite models, Direct Lake considerations, aggregations, incremental refresh, visual optimization, and capacity-aware development.
- Practical experience developing Power BI solutions using enterprise data lakes, Microsoft Fabric lakehouses or warehouses, relational sources, and ERP data.
- Ability to read and write SQL, profile source data, validate joins and row counts, trace business logic, and collaborate with data engineers on source changes.
- Experience publishing and managing Power BI Service content in an enterprise environment, including workspaces, apps, semantic-model settings, refresh schedules, gateways or cloud connections, permissions, endorsements, deployment pipelines, and refresh troubleshooting.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding H-1B Visa Sponsorship as a BI Developer
Map your degree to BI specialty occupation
USCIS evaluates whether your degree field directly relates to business intelligence work. A degree in computer science, data science, or information systems strengthens your case. If your degree is in a tangential field, gather course transcripts showing quantitative and database coursework to close the gap.
Look up prevailing wages before negotiating
Your employer's LCA must certify a wage at or above the DOL prevailing wage for your SOC code and work location. Use the OFLC Wage Search to check Level I through Level IV rates before you receive an offer, so you're not caught off guard by a below-threshold offer.
Target employers with multi-state BI teams carefully
Each physical worksite requires its own certified LCA. If a BI Developer role involves rotating between client sites or multiple offices, confirm with the hiring manager which locations the LCA will cover before accepting. Unlisted worksites create compliance exposure for your employer and your status.
Find H-1B sponsoring employers on Migrate Mate
Filter your BI Developer job search to employers with verified H-1B LCA filing history using Migrate Mate. This cuts out roles where sponsorship is theoretically possible but historically absent, so you spend your time on companies that have actually filed for similar positions.
Review the O*NET profile before writing your resume
The O*NET occupation profile for database and BI developers lists the specific technical tasks and tools USCIS expects to see in a specialty occupation description. Aligning your resume and job duties letter to those task descriptions strengthens the employer's I-129 petition from the start.
Ask about premium processing during the offer stage
H-1B cap selection rules have changed recently, affecting when petitions can be filed. Once selected, standard USCIS adjudication can take several months. Ask your employer directly whether they'll authorize premium processing, since the answer affects your start date and any cap-gap planning you need to do.
H-1B Visa BI Developer: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a BI Developer role qualify as an H-1B specialty occupation?
Yes, BI Developer roles typically qualify as a specialty occupation because the position normally requires at least a bachelor's degree in computer science, information systems, data science, or a closely related field. The employer documents this requirement in the I-129 petition. Roles that only require generic business experience without a specific degree field are harder to support, so the job description needs to reflect degree-level technical duties.
What SOC code do employers use when filing an LCA for a BI Developer?
Most employers file under SOC 15-1243 (Database Architects) or 15-1252 (Software Developers), depending on how the role is structured. The SOC code determines which prevailing wage tier applies in your work location. Confirm the code your employer plans to use before the LCA is submitted, since it directly affects your certified wage floor. You can verify the classification against the O*NET occupation profile.
How do I find employers who actively sponsor H-1B visas for BI Developer positions?
Migrate Mate shows employers with verified H-1B LCA filing history for data and BI roles, so you can focus on companies that have sponsored similar positions before. DOL OFLC disclosure data is publicly available and updated quarterly, but Migrate Mate surfaces it in a searchable format specific to job seekers rather than requiring you to parse raw disclosure files.
Can my employer transfer my H-1B to a new BI Developer role at a different company?
Yes, H-1B portability under AC21 lets you start working for a new employer once they file a non-frivolous I-129 transfer petition, without waiting for approval. The new employer must file a fresh LCA covering the new worksite and wage level. Your status and authorized period from the original petition carry over, so you don't lose time already counted toward your six-year maximum.
What happens to my H-1B status if my BI Developer role moves to a new city?
A change in worksite to a new metropolitan area requires a new certified LCA before you begin working at that location. Your employer files the amended LCA with DOL and may need to file an amended I-129 with USCIS depending on the nature of the change. Short-term placements at client sites can sometimes qualify for a short-term placement exception, but permanent or long-term moves require full LCA certification for the new location.
