Requirements

• Experience: 2–4 years in an analytical role, preferably within Gaming, FinTech, or E-commerce.
• SQL Mastery: Ability to write complex queries to extract data from large-scale relational databases.
• Data Visualization: Advanced proficiency in Tableau, Looker, and/or Google Big Query to build automated, stakeholder-ready dashboards.
