  • Build and maintain business-facing dashboards and self-service reporting that stakeholders use to assess performance and plan action.
  • Translate analysis into recommendations that inform campaign investment, commercial prioritization, growth initiatives, and strategic tradeoffs.
  • Monitor performance to identify material trends, risks, and opportunities requiring a decision or change in business approach. - Partner with Data Science, Product, and business teams to improve data quality, reporting capabilities, and analytical processes.
  • Use AI-enabled workflows to automate recurring reporting and analysis, reducing manual work and improving the speed of insight delivery.

What You'll Bring

  • 3+ years of experience delivering analytics or business intelligence work in analytics, operations, technology, logistics, eCommerce, or a related environment. - Advanced SQL proficiency and experience querying complex relational datasets.
  • Experience building business-facing dashboards in Sigma, Tableau, Looker, Power BI, or a similar platform.
  • Familiarity with data warehouses such as Snowflake or Redshift and a scripting language such as Python.
