  • Tackle many-to-many relationship challenges common in insurance data (e.g., one policy with multiple claimants).
  • Backend & SQL Engineering
  • Develop and optimize complex SQL Stored Procedures and Views to preprocess data before it hits Power BI.
  • Ensure Query Folding is maximized in Power Query (M) to reduce refresh times.
  • Perform data profiling and validation to ensure the "Source of Truth" matches the dashboard.
