  • Optimize data models and queries for performance, scalability, and cost efficiency.
  • Support migration or integration of legacy systems into modern Microsoft BI environments.

Job Requirements:

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Data Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
  • 5+ years of experience as a Data Engineer, BI Developer, or similar role with hands-on Microsoft BI stack.
  • Strong SQL proficiency: Expert in writing advanced T-SQL queries, performance tuning, indexing, and handling large datasets.
  • Expertise in SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) Tabular models: Building semantic models, DAX/MDX, KPIs, perspectives, and processing.
  • Proficiency in Power BI: Data modeling, Power Query, DAX for calculations, report/dashboard development, and publishing/sharing.
  • Experience with SSIS for ETL pipelines and data integration.
  • Familiarity with data warehousing concepts (e.g., star/snowflake schemas, dimensional modeling).
  • Knowledge of Azure data services (e.g., Azure SQL, Azure Analysis Services, Fabric) is a plus.
  • Strong problem-solving, analytical, and communication skills.
  • Ability to work independently and in cross-functional teams.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience in the transportation, logistics, or supply chain industry (e.g., working with data on fleet management, routing optimization, inventory tracking, or freight analytics).
  • Familiarity with SSRS for reporting or other BI tools.
  • Certifications: Microsoft Certified: Data Analyst Associate, Power BI Data Analyst, or Azure Data Engineer.
  • Experience with Python or other scripting for data manipulation is a bonus.

What We Offer

About Roadrunner

Roadrunner is for ambitious, smart people who excel at execution over talking about it, and who would rather invent the next standard in freight than accept the status quo.

We are looking for the Best of the Best. Action driven leaders who want to be part of real change and help design the future of LTL in the U.S. This is a place where high performers can grow, influence outcomes, and make an impact while working directly with executives and smart people from across industries.

We bring a winner mindset. We take ownership, raise the bar, and measure ourselves by results. We Run Safe. We Run Smart. We Run Together. These principles create an environment of high standards, clear ownership, and direct collaboration. We trust data over intuition, move with urgency, and hold each other accountable because winning requires it.

Roadrunner exists to prove that LTL can be better than the industry has settled for. To be the best means we need to think bigger, look outside the box, and question every assumption: too many handoffs, limited visibility, and the quiet belief that “this is just how it works.” We rejected that story. We built a proprietary Smart Network™ for direct, long haul, metro to metro service that delivers fewer touches, faster transit, real time visibility, and genuine accountability. We are the most tech forward company in LTL, and we are not finished widening the gap.

The foundation is already strong. Recognized as one of Built In Chicago’s Best Large Places to Work. Earning top marks for improvement, quality, and service. The real opportunity is still ahead: helping invent what comes next.

If you want to be evaluated among the Best of the Best and help set the new standard in LTL, we should talk.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
