Vha Jobs in Washington (NOW HIRING)

Metrics LLC is looking for a SharePoint / Power BI Developer to support the Department of Veterans Affairs. This position is fully remote.

You will own the SharePoint environment and Power BI reporting layer for a Veterans Health Administration program office that manages the activation of newly constructed VA medical facilities — the work of equipping, furnishing, and staffing a building before it opens to patients. The site is live and in daily use by activation managers across eighteen regional networks, and it carries a documented inventory of defects, several of which corrupt the figures VA uses to build its activation funding request. The priority of this effort is correcting those defects and building the reporting layer that does not currently exist — if you have taken over a neglected SharePoint environment and made its reporting trustworthy again, we want to talk to you.

What you'll do:

• Correct a documented inventory of thirteen platform defects within sixty days of contract start
• Repair four calculation faults in the staffing cost report, including quarter misassignment on on-board dates and cost captured against unfilled positions
• Correct the funding report to capture recurring acquisition costs across all applicable out-years rather than a single budget year
• Build a Power BI reporting layer with drill-down from portfolio to regional network to individual project, covering funding execution by fiscal year, cost against planned budget, staffing levels, and facility opening dates
• Re-architect individual project pages — new data fields, document libraries replacing ad-hoc lists, and a smart link propagating dates and square footage from the source of record
• Implement column-header expansion with mouseover data-entry guidance, automated project-page backup, and hover summaries on the active project list
• Correct newly identified defects within thirty days of identification
• Produce a how-to for every change so the government team can reproduce it
• Write the technical content of the administrator manual — how the program office adjusts site configuration, settings, and reports — and provide the field-level detail behind the end-user guides
• Present technical status at the biweekly meeting with the Contracting Officer's Representative

Minimum qualifications:

• Four (4) years administering SharePoint Online beyond power-user level: lists and libraries, permissions and inheritance, site pages, versioning, forms, and diagnosing broken behavior in an environment you did not build
• Demonstrated Power BI development — data modeling, dataflows, and multi-level drill-down reporting
• Demonstrated experience correcting calculated fields, aggregation errors, and report roll-ups in a production environment
• Ability to make changes to a live system in daily use without taking it offline
• Demonstrated technical writing — administrator guides, configuration procedures, or end-user documentation. Documentation is a contract deliverable on this role, not an afterthought; be prepared to describe or show something you have written
• Able to obtain a favorable VA Tier 1 (low risk) National Agency Check with Inquiries. No security clearance is required
• US person

Before you apply: your application needs to show Power BI work you built, not Power BI reports you used. Include a portfolio, a link, or a short description of a data model you designed and the drill-down it supported. Listing Power BI as a skill without evidence of development work is the single most common reason an otherwise qualified applicant is screened out on this role.

Preferred:

• Power Automate for scheduled jobs and change notification
• Power Apps sufficient to rework list forms
• Prior VA or VHA SharePoint environment experience
• Microsoft PL-300 (Power BI Data Analyst), MS-700, or SharePoint administration certification
• Experience inheriting and stabilizing a neglected SharePoint environment
• Exposure to federal budget or capital-planning data structures — appropriations, fiscal-quarter reporting, full-time equivalent cost roll-ups
