Data Modeler

Location: Cairo, Egypt

Role Description

The Business Information Modeler is responsible for transforming business information into models (most often logical data models) and managing the enterprise data model.

The emphasis on this position is the "modeling of the business" that is required for a successful data warehouse.

Dimensional modeling experience would be a strong added value for online analytical processing.

This role must be experienced in group facilitation with participants from diverse business functions and work skills.

The Business Information Modeler may be the Lead Consultant on a project.
