This role serves as the primary data analyst responsible for ensuring data accuracy, investigating discrepancies, and supporting stakeholders following a recent large-scale platform onboarding.

This is a hands‑on analytical role, ideal for someone who excels in SQL-based investigation, data validation, and issue resolution rather than reporting or development.

• Trace data flow and lineage to identify upstream vs. downstream data issues
• Troubleshoot and remediate data quality and data integrity issues
• Respond to stakeholder inquiries and clearly explain findings and impacts
• Own issue intake, tracking, and resolution using JIRA
• Partner with product owners on user stories and data-related workflows
• Provide timely status updates and elevate risks or blockers as needed

• 7+ years of senior‑level experience in data analysis, analytics, or business execution roles
• Strong SQL analysis skills focused on validation and investigation
• Proven experience with data validation and remediation
• Experience analyzing data flow and lineage
• Stakeholder‑facing data support experience
• Hands‑on experience with JIRA (issue intake, user stories, lifecycle tracking)
• Advanced proficiency in Excel or similar analytical tools
• Ability to manage multiple priorities with minimal oversight

• Experience supporting enterprise-scale or high-volume applications
• Background in regulated or large corporate environments
• Ability to independently assess issues without heavy direction

• Strong interpersonal and communication skills
• Proactive, confident, and solutions-oriented
• Comfortable engaging with both technical and business stakeholders
• Detail-oriented with a strong sense of ownership and accountability

• High visibility supporting a widely used enterprise platform
• Opportunity for contract extension beyond initial term
• Collaborative environment with strong product and analytics partners
