• Troubleshoot Tableau authentication, permissions, data-source connectivity, extract processing, workbook performance, subscriptions, and platform incidents in partnership with report developers, data engineering, infrastructure, cybersecurity, and identity teams.

• Provide Tableau onboarding guidance, reusable standards, templates, and enablement for developers, publishers, project leaders, content owners, and support teams.
• Drive Tableau platform optimization by identifying stale projects, unused workbooks and data sources, duplicate content, inefficient extracts, performance bottlenecks, and opportunities to standardize or automate administration.
• Provide administration and operational support for Microsoft Power BI, including tenant settings, workspaces, gateways, capacities, deployment pipelines, access controls, refresh operations, monitoring, and audit capabilities.
• Provide limited administration and operational support for other enterprise applications, as assigned, including access management, monitoring, incident resolution, change coordination, documentation, and vendor support.
• Ensure platform administration complies with enterprise security, privacy, records-management, and regulatory requirements through logging, monitoring, least-privilege access, data protection controls, and auditable processes.
• Coordinate incident, problem, change, release, and vendor support processes, with primary ownership of Tableau operational issues and supporting responsibility for Power BI and other assigned applications.
