What You Bring
Required
5+ years of experience in analytics, data engineering, or a hybrid role — ideally in a high-growth or startup environment where you’ve had to build things from scratch
Advanced SQL: complex joins, window functions, CTEs, query optimization. You should be able to navigate unfamiliar database schemas and figure out how data fits together. - Hands-on experience with data modeling and pipeline tools (dbt, Airflow, or similar). You’ve built and maintained data models, not just queried them. - Strong BI experience building production dashboards (Looker, Tableau, or similar). You know how to design reporting that’s actually useful, not just comprehensive. - Comfort working in ambiguous environments with incomplete information. You don’t wait for perfectly defined requirements — you figure out what’s needed and start building. - Strong communication skills: you can explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders and advocate for data quality and infrastructure investments
An A-player mindset with a strong bias for action: you raise the bar, move with urgency, stay resilient through ambiguity, and take ownership to deliver meaningful outcomes. Preferred
Python for data manipulation, scripting, and statistical analysis
Experience with data migration projects — moving data between systems, reconciling schemas, validating parity
Domain experience in operations analytics, fintech, or verification/identity services
Familiarity with version control (Git) and software engineering practices in an analytics context
