Job summary

Jones Lang LaSalle seeks a Lead Developer to transform raw data into leadership-ready Power BI outputs. You will ingest data into our cloud, wrangle messy sources, model it, and build dashboards for executives while owning the end-to-end process.

Based in the U.S., remote with Eastern–Pacific overlap; you will partner with Commercial Performance Directors on high-impact data projects, leveraging Databricks, Azure, SQL, Python, and AI capabilities.

Qualifications

• Strong hands-on fluency with Databricks for data processing, transformation, and analytics.
• Experience ingesting data within an Azure cloud environment and building dependable data pipelines.
• Excellent data transformation and manipulation skills.
• Exceptional QA and attention to detail — this is a defining trait of the role, not a nice-to-have.
• Your work should be dependable requiring minimal re-checking.
• Tolerance for ambiguity - ability to take a vague ask and hard data through to a finished output independently with sound technical judgment when there's no spec to follow.
• Strong SQL for querying and transformation; Python for data processing and analytics.
• AI fluency — familiarity with building MCP servers, connectors, and integrations, ideally in code.
• You should be comfortable working with Claude Code.

Responsibilities

• Ingest data from a range of source systems into our cloud repository, building reliable, repeatable pipelines.
• Transform, clean, and model complex and imperfect data using Databricks.
• Design and build robust data models that hold up as sources and requirements change.
• Develop polished, intuitive Power BI reports and dashboards that turn that data into clear answers for a leadership audience.
• Own quality end to end — rigorous QA, data validation, and attention to detail so that every output is accurate, consistent, and defensible.
• Carry work through the full technical lifecycle — from raw source to published, documented, leadership-ready product — largely independently.
• Partner closely with the Commercial Performance Directors to understand what each piece of work is really for, and translate that into the right technical solution.
