• Structure and maintain the reporting database environment, including curated views, application-managed tables, historical metric records, and dashboard settings.

• Administer deployments and recurring platform operations through Firebase hosting and GitHub Actions, while monitoring job health and resolving processing issues.

• Configure and maintain authentication and authorization controls in Firebase to protect access to internal reporting tools.

• Partner with business stakeholders to convert reporting needs into efficient queries, scalable data models, and user-friendly dashboard designs.

• Investigate data or application issues across the reporting stack and implement fixes that improve reliability and performance.

Requirements

• At least 3 years of experience working within Salesforce and Litify environments.

• At least 3 years of experience in legal services, service-focused settings, or operational analytics environments.

• At least 3 years of development experience using TypeScript and Next.js or React.

• At least 3 years of hands-on work with relational databases in production environments, with PostgreSQL experience strongly preferred.

• At least 3 years of experience building or supporting data integration pipelines and connecting with external APIs, including Salesforce.

• Familiarity with CI/CD workflows, scheduled automation, and cloud-based application hosting such as GitHub Actions and Firebase.

• Demonstrated ability to work across front-end, back-end, and data layers in a single application ecosystem.

• Experience with dashboard design, visualization tools, or Salesforce certifications is a plus.
