- Perform ad-hoc deep-dive analyses to identify trends, anomalies, and opportunities for process improvement across different business units
- Partner with data engineering to define requirements for new data sources and ensure the accuracy of ingested data via rigorous QA processes
- Translate business requirements into technical specifications and deliver data-driven recommendations to non-technical stakeholders
- Document data definitions, metric logic, and analytical methodology to ensure a single source of truth across the organization
What We Are Looking For
- 3–6 years of experience in data analytics, business intelligence, or a similar quantitative role at a high-growth technology company
- Expert-level SQL skills with the ability to write complex joins, window functions, and CTEs for large-scale datasets
- Hands-on experience with modern BI tools such as Tableau, Looker (LookML), or Sigma Computing
- Strong understanding of data modeling concepts and experience working with transformation tools like dbt
- Bachelor’s degree in a quantitative field such as Statistics, Economics, Mathematics, Computer Science, or Engineering
- Bonus: Proficiency in Python or R for statistical analysis; experience with Salesforce or Netsuite data schemas; familiarity with version control via Git
