What You'll Do
- Write and improve SQL queries that power reporting and analysis. You’ll support business teams by extracting and transforming data, building reusable queries, and collaborating with engineering to enhance data models and pipelines.
- Deliver clean, trusted data. You’ll ensure that the data used across Finance, Product, Sales, and Engineering is accurate and reliable, enabling fast and confident decision-making and reducing rework and second-guessing.
- Identify and fix root-cause issues. You’ll proactively identify bugs, inconsistencies, or oddities in the data that powers our reports, and collaborate with Engineering and Product to determine the root cause of the issue.
- Enable real-time reporting. Department heads will rely on you for recurring and ad-hoc reports that are both timely and accurate. You’ll build reports that scale as our teams grow.
- Continuously improve data quality. You won’t wait for others to flag data issues. Instead, you’ll take initiative to audit, investigate, and improve datasets before problems reach stakeholders.
- Confident with SQL and eager to grow. You’re comfortable querying relational databases, navigating schemas, writing joins, and thinking in data logic.
- Detail-oriented. You notice inconsistencies that others miss and take pride in spotting the one broken row in a dataset of thousands.
- Owner’s mindset. You feel a strong sense of responsibility for the quality of your work and the integrity of the data others rely on. If it’s broken, you’ll fix it.
- Adaptable. You’re comfortable working with imperfect or incomplete data, and you adjust quickly to changing product requirements or business needs.
- Analytical. You excel at analyzing large datasets, identifying patterns and anomalies, and transforming complex or ambiguous information into actionable insights.
- Proactive collaborator. You don’t wait for someone else to raise a flag; you pull in the right people to get the right answer, fast.
