Job Description

We are looking for a Data Analyst to help drive our clients’ operations and strategy across business functions. This is a direct hire opportunity offering a competitive base, benefits, 401k, equity, and unlimited PTO.

This role is a mix of using data and analytics to identify key trends, issues, and opportunities along with working to implement changes in business strategy and operations to address those trends and findings.

This position requires outstanding analytic and communication skills, the ability to collaborate with a wide variety of colleagues, experience prioritizing work in a challenging environment, and the tenacity to execute against deliverables in a timely, high-quality fashion.

This position is primarily remote, but our client has hubs in San Francisco and Pittsburgh and plan to come together periodically for opportunities to collaborate.

What you'll be doing:

  • Support the business operations team initiatives on an ad-hoc basis by fielding requests for reports and dashboards, providing advice and insight along with the data.
  • Work with the data team on the setup of cross-functional company reporting, dashboards, and analysis based on an in-depth understanding of the business model, operations, product, and company KPIs.
  • Coordinate with key stakeholders to ensure that data is accessible, and metrics are well-defined
  • Design SQL queries and data visualizations that deliver insightful metrics to internal customers
  • Prepare executive-level reporting, summarizing findings and recommendations
  • Identify and interpret patterns and trends in datasets to attribute key business drivers; turn findings into actionable recommendations to influence key stakeholders
  • Develop needle-moving hypotheses and conduct data-driven experiments to validate or invalidate hypotheses
  • Maintain and assist in data model documentation, data dictionary, and other Data Governance documentation
  • Design and implement automated data quality checks and processes

What you'll bring:

  • Bachelor’s degree or relevant experience
  • Experience analyzing data using SQL
  • Experience generating internal customer-facing reports
  • Experience using databases and reporting tools (we use Snowflake and Sisense for cloud data teams (Periscope), but experience with other tools is ok)
  • Demonstrated skills in developing metrics and applying analytics to successful problem solving and performance monitoring.
  • Strong mindfulness.
  • Some amount of operations experience

Nice to Haves:

  • Python
  • Periscope
  • Snowflake
