Join Our Team

We are on the hunt for talented individuals passionate about a results-driven career and committed to providing exceptional service to our clients and candidates.

The Role

Tundra operates a Microsoft Fabric data platform as its unified data layer and uses Power BI as its primary reporting and analytics interface. With Bullhorn ATS integrated today and ADP, Dynamics, DS platforms, commissions, and an FP&A tool (Workday under consideration) to be integrated - we are seeking a senior, hands-on leader to own the end-to-end data platform and analytics operating model.

This role sits within Operations, reports to the COO, and is foundational to Finance’s FP&A requirements as well as front-of-house reporting for KPIs, commissions, and forecasting. The successful candidate will combine strong platform leadership with a builder’s mindset: comfortable architecting the target state, implementing it in Fabric/Power BI, and operating it day-to-day in a fast-moving, growth environment.

What You’ll Own

• Platform Ownership: End-to-end ownership of Microsoft Fabric (OneLake, Warehouse/Lakehouse patterns, pipelines) as Tundra’s unified data layer; reliability, performance, cost management, and governance.
• Reporting Layer: Ownership of Power BI semantic models, certified datasets, dashboards, and KPI frameworks used by ELT, GTM (Sales), Delivery, Operations, and Finance.
• Systems Integration: Integrate Bullhorn ATS, DS platforms, ADP, Dynamics, commission systems, and the selected FP&A tool into a governed analytics model.
• FP&A Enablement: Partner with Finance to implement the FP&A platform (Workday under consideration); ensure clean data feeds, dimensional models, and planning views (contribution vs. true financial P&L) from Fabric.
• Forecasting & Planning Support: Operationalize driver-based forecasting (demand, capacity, pricing, mix) with Ops/GTM (Sales)/Delivery while ensuring Finance-grade data integrity.
• Commissions & Performance Analytics: Enable commission calculations and performance-to-target visibility (Ops-owned logic with Finance audit), integrated to Fabric and Power BI.
• Data Governance & Quality: Define KPI definitions, data contracts, lineage, certification, access controls, and quality SLAs; enforce “one dataset, multiple governed views.”
• Security & Compliance: Partner with IT/Security on access, privacy, and compliance across Fabric and Power BI.
• Hands-On Delivery: Personally design models, build pipelines, ship Power BI assets, and unblock teams—especially in the first 6–12 months.
• Operating Model: Establish run-books, monitoring, and support for the data platform; scale the team thoughtfully over time.

Who You Are

• Builder-Leader: You’ve owned modern data platforms and still enjoy hands-on work (SQL, models, pipelines, Power BI).
• Commercially Fluent: You understand staffing/services economics (revenue, GM, utilization, pricing, contribution margin) and how analytics drives behavior.
• Microsoft Stack Strong: Deep experience with Microsoft Fabric (or Azure Synapse + ADLS), Power BI (semantic models, DAX), and modern ELT.
• FP&A Adjacent: Experience enabling FP&A tools (Workday Adaptive, Anaplan, Pigment, Vena) and reconciling planning vs. actuals.
• Integration Ready: Comfortable integrating ATS/CRM (Bullhorn), ERP (Dynamics), HRIS (ADP), and commission systems.
• Pragmatic Operator: You prioritize shipping value over perfection and can stand up v1 quickly, then iterate.
• Cross-Functional Leader: Strong communicator who aligns Ops, GTM (Sales), and Finance on one governed data model.

Preferred Qualifications

• 8–12+ years in data/analytics platform roles with increasing ownership.
• Proven experience standing up a modern data platform for BI and planning.
• Strong Power BI modeling (DAX, semantic models) and SQL.
• Experience integrating ERP/HRIS/ATS data.
• Exposure to FP&A tooling and planning models.
• Staffing/MSP/RPO/services or SaaS experience preferred.
