High performing and highly dependable, comfortable operating with rigor in a fast-paced environment, with strong attention to detail.
Strong SQL expertise. You will write production queries, build ad-hoc ETLs and conduct data validations as needed.
Comfortable cleaning, joining, and validating multi-source datasets and communicating data limitations.
Excellent written and verbal communication; experience preparing slide-ready charts/tables for leadership audiences.
Demonstrated ability to partner with non-technical stakeholders and translate business questions into data requirements.
