Job description

Teleion is Looking for a Business Intelligence Project Manager to Join our Team!

• Must be living in the following states to be considered: Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Iowa, Montana, North Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Washington, Wisconsin.

The ideal candidate is someone who can operate as both a strong technical BI practitioner and a seasoned project leader. This isn't a traditional PM role bolted onto a BI team; it's for someone who can get into the data and architecture conversations with engineers and analysts, while also owning timelines, stakeholders, and delivery like a career project manager. You'll lead BI/analytics initiatives end-to-end: scoping, resourcing, execution, and stakeholder communication, while staying technically credible enough to guide design decisions and unblock the team.

Key Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end delivery of BI/analytics projects — scoping, planning, resourcing, and execution across small-to-large initiatives
• Manage timelines, budgets, risks, and dependencies across multiple concurrent workstreams
• Translate business/client requirements into clear technical scope and delivery plans
• Communicate proactively with internal and external stakeholders, managing expectations and surfacing risks early
• Run standard PM cadences (status reporting, roadmaps, retros) tailored to a technical BI audience

Technical / BI Leadership

• Partner directly with data engineers and analysts on SQL, Python, and cloud data architecture (AWS/Redshift or equivalent) decisions
• Evaluate and advise on BI/analytics tooling and strategy (e.g., QuickSight, Tableau, Power BI)
• Provide informed technical oversight on data governance, data integration, and ETL processes — enough to ask the right questions and catch issues before they become delivery risks
• Support complex analyses and big data initiatives by understanding the underlying technical approach, not just the project plan around it

Team & Stakeholder Development

• Mentor and support junior team members in both technical and project-delivery skills
• Act as the primary interface between technical teams and business/client stakeholders, translating in both directions
• Build trust with senior stakeholders as a credible voice on both "can we build this" and "when will it be done"

Qualifications

• 7+ years of experience in project/program management, with a significant portion in BI, data, or analytics environments.
• Hands‑on experience with Databricks, including building or managing data pipelines, notebooks, or analytics workflows within the platform. Candidates should be able to share examples of projects or solutions delivered using the platform.
• Working technical fluency in SQL required with hands‑on experience with Python and cloud data platforms (AWS/Redshift or similar).
• Demonstrated experience managing BI/analytics tooling decisions or strategy (e.g., QuickSight, Tableau, Power BI, Looker)
• Strong track record managing stakeholder relationships, including with external/client stakeholders
• Experience with data governance and ETL/data integration concepts
• Ability to quickly learn the business well enough to advise on requirements, paired with strong documentation skills and a genuine sense of ownership over deliverables.
