Estimated from BLS employment for this occupation and area, per-skill prevalence across our listing corpus, and published wage benchmarks — as of Jul 28, 2026. It is a model, not a headcount.

Why we read it this way (6)

The posting is titled 'Data Analyst 4' (internally) but framed externally as 'Sr. Data Analyst', both pointing to a Senior-level role. No explicit years-of-experience requirement is stated.

The role blends data analysis/reporting, data engineering (ADF pipelines, ETL), and database administration (Azure SQL tuning). SOC 15-2031 (Operations Research Analysts) was chosen for its emphasis on workforce planning models and analytical/forecasting solutions; 15-1243 (Database Architects) is a credible runner-up given the pipeline and dimensional modeling work.

Pay is stated as '$65 (No C2C)', indicating an hourly contract rate with no corp-to-corp arrangements. The posting is placed by ManpowerGroup/Experis, confirming the contract engagement.

SSAS cubes and dimensional modeling are listed under 'What's Needed?' (the requirements section) with the qualifier 'familiarity with', which slightly softens the gate; however, given section placement they are retained as required.

Azure broadly (cloud platform services) appears in the narrative/benefits section and is marked preferred; Azure SQL and Azure Data Factory are explicitly called out in the requirements section and are marked required.

Posting is for a contract engagement — the market benchmarks below price full-time roles, so read the comp comparison with that in mind.
