Job description

Position Summary

Prometheus Federal Services (PFS) is a trusted partner of federal health agencies.We are seeking an experienced, hands‑on Power Platform Developer with strong data engineering expertise. This role will design and build Power Apps applications, Power Automate workflows, and Power BI solutions using governed Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and Veterans Health Administration (VHA) data assets, including the Corporate Data Warehouse (CDW). The role will also develop the data pipelines and models that support these solutions. The incumbent will own solutions end‑to‑end, including data modeling, ingestion and transformation logic, application and report development, and ALM governance, to ensure deliverables are maintainable, performant, and compliant.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities

Power Apps Development

• Design, build, and deploycanvasand model-driven Power Appsthat operationalize VA/VHA data and replace manual, spreadsheet, or email-driven processes
• ArchitectDataverseas the application data backbone — designing tables, columns, relationships, keys, business rules, calculated/rollup columns, and security roles
• Connect apps toDataverse, SharePoint, SQL Server/Azure SQL, and the CDWusing standard, premium, and (where required) custom connectors, and to external data through virtual tables and dataflows
• Build responsive, accessible (Section 508/WCAG) screens, forms, and views, and implement application logic using Power Fx
• Develop reusablecomponents, component libraries, and PCF controlsto standardize UX and accelerate delivery across apps
• ApplyALM and Power Platform governance— solutions, managed/unmanaged layering, environment strategy, deployment pipelines, and source control (Git / Azure DevOps) — through the Power Platform admin center
• Optimize app performance (delegation, data-source efficiency, concurrent loading) and harden apps with appropriate security and data loss prevention (DLP) policies

Power Automate Development

• Build and maintaincloud flowsto automate data movement, approvals, notifications, and process hand-offs across Dataverse, SharePoint, Outlook/Teams, SQL, and VA systems
• Developscheduled, automated (event-triggered), and instant flows, using connectors, expressions, environment variables, and robust error handling, retries, and logging
• Implementdesktop flows / RPA (Power Automate Desktop)to automate interactions with legacy or non-API systems where appropriate
• Orchestrate ingestion and transformation steps within larger data pipelines, coordinating with Dataverse, dataflows, and downstream reporting
• Design flows for reliability and observability — including monitoring, alerting, and graceful failure handlingand document trigger conditions and dependencies

Power BI Development

• Design, build, and maintainPower BI reports, dashboards, and semantic modelsagainst the CDW and other VA data sources
• Author robustdata modelswith star-schema design, relationships, and well-documentedDAXmeasures, calculated columns, andPower Query (M)transformations
• Configurerow-level security (RLS), gateways, refresh schedules,incremental refresh/partitioning, and workspace/app deployment
• Tune model and report performance (query folding, aggregations, model size, DAX optimization) and applydeployment pipelinesfor promotion across dev/test/prod
• Build certified, reusable datasets and shared semantic models that serve multiple downstream reports and apps

Data Engineering & Pipeline Development

• Design and buildingestion and transformation pipelines (ETL/ELT)that move data from VA source systems and the CDW into Dataverse, Azure SQL, and Power BI semantic models
• Develop and maintainPower Platform dataflows, Azure Data Factory, and/or SSISpipelines, including logic for staging, cleansing, conforming, and loading
• Designdimensional and normalized data models(fact/dimension structures, surrogate keys, slowly changing dimensions) to support analytics and applications
• Implement performant data connectivity — gateways, virtual tables, dataflows, and direct SQL — with attention to refresh windows, volume, and security constraints
• Builddata validation, reconciliation, and quality checksinto pipelines, and instrument monitoring/alerting for pipeline health
• Apply CI/CD and source control to data assets, and partner with data engineering teams on shared pipeline patterns and reusable transformation logic

VA/VHA Data Sources, Systems & the Corporate Data Warehouse (CDW)

• Work directly with VA/VHA clinical, operational, financial, and administrative data sources and theCDW, including its domains and fact/dimension structures
• Understand and work within CDWaccess methods, refresh schedules, security considerations, and system constraints, and how source systems feed the CDW and downstream layers
• Collaborate with technical teams to understand and leverage data flows acrossdevelopment, test, and productionenvironments
• Enable analysts and engineers to use VA data assets effectively (CDW tables, views, and approved reporting layers) through working solutions and concise reference material

Business Process Engineering & Stakeholder Engagement

• Partner with VA/VHA stakeholders to elicit data, process, and application requirements and clarify business and technical needs
• Map current-state (as-is) and future-state (to-be) processes, identifying manual hand-offs and opportunities to automate or improve with Power Platform solutions
• Translate business questions and operational needs into data models, app/flow designs, and report requirements
• Facilitate working sessions, demos, and reviews to validate solution and process accuracy with subject matter experts
• Communicate technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences

Technical Documentation, Metadata & Governance (Supporting)

• Document the logic behind delivered solutions — Power BI models and DAX, Power Apps data connections and Power Fx logic, Power Automate flows, and pipeline transformations — for reuse, governance, and audit readiness
• Maintain data dictionaries, source-to-target mappings, and data lineage for the datasets and models you build, with consistent naming conventions and definitions
• Validate that engineered datasets, app data connections, and flows align with documented business rules, security requirements, and data quality expectations
