Summary

About the Company We're a B2B distributor of medical, industrial, and veterinary supplies based in Minnesota. Our team operates on a Microsoft-first stack — Microsoft Dynamics GP (Great Plains) as our ERP, SalesPad for order management, SQL Server as our data backbone, and Microsoft 365 across the organization. We're building out a reporting and analytics function to give our sales team and leadership better visibility into the business. What We're Building We need an experienced Power BI developer to work alongside our internal data specialist and sales team to design, build, and deliver a suite of operational dashboards.
