You will design and maintain Power BI dashboards that track budgets, deadlines, and program outcomes, automate time-consuming reporting processes, and integrate multiple systems so data flows seamlessly across the organization. You will also explore emerging AI capabilities to identify practical ways to enhance efficiency, accuracy, and insight across our finance and grants operations. In addition, this position provides direct, hands-on support for multiple contractually required federal and state grant reports throughout the year.
