Job Description

As a Data Operations Analyst II, you will take ownership of critical data workflows and serve as a strategic data partner to the Operations, Compliance, and Finance organizations. You will move beyond simple request fulfillment to designing scalable data solutions, acting as a bridge between business stakeholders and the technical BI/Analytics teams. You will be expected to identify process inefficiencies, automate reporting at scale, and mentor junior analysts in best practices.

What you will be doing:

  • Own and Optimize Data Workflows - managing syncs, architecting and maintaining complex data pipelines and automation workflows. You will proactively identify bottlenecks in data delivery and implement solutions to reduce manual intervention.

  • Design, build, and maintain high-impact, interactive dashboards (using tools like Looker, BigQuery etc.) that drive decision-making for executive leadership. You will be responsible for "telling the story" behind the data, not just displaying the numbers.

  • Lead the definition of data quality standards. You will perform root-cause analysis on data discrepancies, implement automated alerts for anomalies, and work directly with Engineering/BI to fix upstream data issues permanently.

  • Act as the primary data consultant for specific Operations, Compliance and Finance verticals.

  • Lead small to medium-sized data projects from conception to delivery, managing timelines and stakeholder expectations without heavy supervision.

  • Provide guidance and technical support to Analyst I team members, assisting with code reviews (SQL) and best practices for data visualization.

About You:

  • Bachelor's degree in a quantitative field (CS, Math, Economics, Engineering) or equivalent practical experience.

  • 2–4 years of experience in an analytical or data operations role, ideally within Fintech, Payments, or a high-growth tech environment.

  • Advanced proficiency in SQL is required (window functions, complex joins, query optimization).

  • Proven expertise in building complex dashboards in Looker, Tableau, or similar.

  • Basic proficiency in Python/R for scripting or data manipulation is highly desirable.

  • Strong understanding of data modeling concepts (star schema, snowflake) and experience translating vague business questions into precise technical requirements.

  • Ability to explain complex technical data constraints to non-technical stakeholders and negotiate scope effectively.

  • You don't just fix the report; you fix the process so the report doesn't break again.
