What to look for in a Looker freelancer
A strong Looker expert treats the semantic model as the source of truth, not an afterthought. Look for:
- Deep LookML skills, including derived tables and reusable dimensions.
- A metrics-modeling mindset, so one number means the same thing everywhere.
- Warehouse SQL fluency, because Looker is only as fast as the queries under it.
- An eye for usable dashboards, not just charts crammed onto a page.
- Governance experience: access controls, folders, and version-controlled LookML.
Ask how they would model a core metric so every dashboard reports it the same way.
