SAS Developer

CONTEXT

Our client, a major player in its sector, supports public-sector organisations whose reporting and operational decisions depend on reliable SAS-based data processing. The BI and DWH team is responsible for a set of applications and data flows where stability, traceability, and performance matter every day. The team needs a senior SAS developer who can maintain existing solutions, improve ETL processes, and provide the kind of technical documentation that keeps knowledge from disappearing into individual memory. This is a hands-on role in an environment where good data engineering directly supports public-service reporting and decision-making.

• Optimise ETL processes for reliability, performance, and maintainability.
• Investigate production issues and provide technical support to keep data flows running smoothly.

• Work with the BI/DWH team to understand reporting needs and translate them into robust data-processing logic.
• Improve existing code and processes while respecting the constraints of public-sector environments.

EXPECTED ACHIEVEMENTS

• More reliable SAS applications and ETL processes that support public-sector reporting with less operational friction.
• Clear technical documentation that reduces dependency on individual experts and improves team resilience.
• Performance and maintainability improvements that make data processing easier to support over time.
• Stronger collaboration between data engineers, analysts, and reporting stakeholders.

ENVIRONMENT
