Responsibilities

Strategic Reporting: Develop and maintain automated dashboards in Tableau or Power BI to track KPIs such as cost avoidance, contract cycle times, and payment term compliance.

Process Optimization: Partner with the "AI Task Force" to implement and refine LLM-based tools (like Gemini) for automated bid reviews and contract data extraction.
Stakeholder Partnership: Act as a liaison between the Technical Power teams and Legal, translating data into "business speak" to support high-value negotiations and EPC agreements.
Data Integrity & Governance: Oversee data accuracy within Jira and our Sourcing modules. Help design "Golden Rules" for data entry within Coupa to ensure audit-ready project tracking.
Ad-Hoc Agility: Support the Senior Analyst with rapid-turnaround analysis on fragmented or "dirty" datasets to support immediate business needs.
