SAS ETL BI Developer

As an experienced SAS Developer who thrives in a high production, team-oriented environment, this opportunity to make a significant contribution could be yours! Whether based within a commutable distance of our office in Lansing, Michigan or as a candidate open to relocating there, your deep experience with any production-based database to leverage business intelligence using ETL technology could get your foot in the door of this interactive role where you will enjoy regular customer contact. For a top-notch candidate with previous telecommute experience, a remote, work-from-home situation is an option. Whether a full-time employee, or a contractor willing to sign on for a two year contract, we're looking for a hands-on developer to construct data extracts to meet State and Federal educational reporting requirements while helping to build a data warehouse. At Red Cedar Solutions Group, the IT function is a partner, not a cost center. If you're looking for a challenging, collaborative role with room for growth, put your hat in the ring today!

Red Cedar Solutions Group is a young and growing company. We have a dynamic client oriented environment where we develop software, provide professional services, and contract out technical consulting services. We work in both the private and public sector, focusing on education, criminal justice, and general technology consulting. Unlike similar companies, we are already profitable, we have no debt, and we are continuing to grow in spite of the down turn in the economy.

We were founded by two people who have worked in technology and who also have enough business knowledge to develop verticals. Technology is part of business and not overhead. You will be part of our revenue stream and not just a cost center. We know that our developers and technical staff are our internal business partners.

In education we have two former directors of state government education agencies, former teachers and principals, and project management staff with several years of experience. In corrections, we have partnered with experts to help develop systems to reduce costs and keep low risk offenders out of jail. In technology, we have architects, developers, database administrators and consultants with decades of experience. However, we also hire less experienced candidates who show the potential to grow into the positions for which they have been hired.

Our technical staff members have the opportunity to help the shape the development of our teams. We have established approaches and technologies, but we believe no one has the corner on good ideas and you would be expected to contribute. In technology, it is upgrade, innovate or die. We run a pure meritocracy, meaning you will be compensated based only on your contribution to the company. We pay people for what they do and not for how long they have been with the company.

Red Cedar is made up of smart, creative, and friendly people. We are experiencing rapid growth, and we need similar people to grow with us. Be part of our team and help develop systems and business that matters.

As our SAS Developer you will work as part of a small team of elite developers using ETL technology to build a data warehouse with SAS and Data Integration Studio. Deep experience and expertise with any production based database such as Oracle, DB2 or SQL Server as well as experience as a member of a SAS team is critical to success as you use SAS to load data from source systems into a common database as well as creating extracts for reporting and for use in other systems. Solid experience working with databases of 100GB or more will enable you to adhere to critical deadlines. Challenge abounds in
this dynamic environment where you will have a hand in many areas
of projects not the least of which is developing and debugging SAS
processes, ensuring your code accurately meets the requirements of your
development tasks. This is a customer-facing role where listening skills
to gain clarification around requirements and solving problems are just
as important as your technical prowess.
If you are an experienced SAS developer who pays attention to the little details that make up the big picture, join now during this critical phase of our growth!
