Senior Analyst, Data Visualization Engineer

Overview

Job Summary The Senior Analyst, Data Visualization Engineer supports the development of data visualization products by transforming structured datasets into clear, reliable, and accurate visualizations and reports. This role delivers dashboards and data that support recurring strategic and operational decisions—such as performance assessment, rate optimization, hotel consultation, and direct hotel‑level reporting. The position executes moderately complex analytical tasks that contribute to organizational performance and growth.

The Senior Analyst works closely with peers on the Data Visualization team as well as analytics and data engineering partners to translate reporting requirements into high‑quality Tableau dashboards and data products that drive informed decision‑making. This role works independently on routine tasks and receives guidance on more complex assignments. While not a people leader, the Senior Analyst provides informal guidance and training to junior analysts and business partners.

• Collaborates with stakeholders to build and update assigned Tableau dashboard components, following established standards and receiving structure and layout guidance from senior team members.
• Utilizes AWS Redshift and SQL to extract and validate data for reporting needs, applying moderately complex queries and escalating atypical or ambiguous data issues as needed.
• Supports communication between data engineering, analytics, and business partners by gathering task‑level requirements, confirming definitions, and relaying information under the direction of senior team members or the manager.
• Translates documented business requirements into clear specifications for assigned dashboard elements or report updates, ensuring alignment with existing BI processes and escalating unclear or conflicting requirements.
• Executes recurring reporting tasks and supports maintenance of the BI/reporting roadmap by tracking updates, documenting changes, and identifying small improvements for review by senior team members.
• Assists in driving data product adoption by preparing documentation, updating training materials, supporting user questions, and helping coordinate content for quarterly stakeholder meetings.
• Contributes to enhancements to the Tableau roadmap by researching visualization trends, proposing minor improvements, and testing new features under senior team member supervision.

• 1–3 years of experience in reporting, data visualization, or related analytics work.
• 1–3 years of experience developing dashboards and performing data exploration in Tableau.
• 1–3 years of experience writing SQL queries; experience with Redshift or other columnar databases preferred.
• Experience using query tools such as DB Visualizer, DBeaver, or comparable tools.

• Familiarity with Tableau features including chart creation, parameters, filters, and calculated fields.
• Knowledge of data modeling concepts, joins, aggregation logic, and performance considerations.
• Experience with Microsoft Office Suite (Excel, Access, PowerPoint).
• Exposure to Jira, Confluence, or other Atlassian products for documentation and task tracking.
• Basic experience with prompt engineering for AI tools (e.g., MS Copilot, Google Gemini, ChatGPT) preferred.

• Strong attention to detail with a commitment to data accuracy and process adherence.
• Analytical mindset with the ability to identify and investigate moderately complex data or reporting issues.
• Ability to manage multiple routine tasks simultaneously while maintaining quality and meeting deadlines.
• Strong communication skills, particularly in documenting processes and clarifying requirements.
• Demonstrated ability to complete assignments with general supervision and seek guidance for unfamiliar or complex scenarios.

• Related Bachelor’s degree or equivalent combination of education and work experience.
• No certifications required; relevant analytics or visualization certifications considered a plus.
