This role is ideal for someone who enjoys digging into messy data, figuring out what can be trusted, identifying patterns and discrepancies, and translating findings into a clear story for business and technical stakeholders.
This is an analytics-focused role, not a Data Engineering position. While you will work within an environment that includes Databricks, Spark, ETL processes, and enterprise data infrastructure, your focus will be onanalyzing, investigating, validating, and interpreting data—not building production data pipelines.
What You’ll Do
-
Analyze large, complex enterprise datasets usingSQL and Databricks
-
Investigatedata quality, coverage, duplication, inconsistencies, discrepancies, and edge cases
-
Determine which data is reliable and apply business logic when source data is incomplete, inconsistent, or poorly documented
-
Identify meaningful patterns, trends, and opportunities within the data
-
Define, analyze, and validatebusiness metrics and KPIs
-
Translate analytical findings intoclear insights and actionable recommendations
-
Develop compelling data stories that explain not onlywhat the data shows, but why it matters
-
Compare and reconcile data across multiple systems and sources
-
Support analysis related to enterprise data migrations, transformations, and validation
-
Partner closely with business and technical stakeholders to understand questions, investigate issues, and communicate findings
-
Work within data environments involvingDatabricks, Spark, ETL processes, and complex enterprise data flows
What We’re Looking For
-
5–10 years of experience in data analytics, business intelligence, data analysis, or a similar analytical role
-
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Technology, Data Analytics, or a related field
-
AdvancedSQL skills with experience querying and analyzing large enterprise datasets
-
Strong analytical and investigative problem-solving skills
-
Proven ability to work withlarge, messy, or ambiguous datasets
-
Experience identifying and resolvingdata quality, duplication, coverage, and consistency issues
-
Ability to take an ambiguous business problem and determine how to use available data to answer it
-
Experience deriving insights and translating them into business recommendations
-
Strongdata storytelling and communication skills
-
Ability to explain complex findings clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
-
Strong attention to detail and willingness to investigate anomalies and edge cases
Preferred Experience
-
Hands-onDatabricks experience for data exploration, investigation, and analytics
-
Working knowledge ofSpark
-
Understanding ofETL processes, data flows, and data validation
-
Experience supporting enterprise data migrations or complex data environments
-
Experience developing or analyzing KPIs and business metrics
-
Familiarity with graph-style data models, knowledge graphs, or ontologies is a plus
What This Role Is — and Isn’t
The strongest candidate is ananalytics professional first who also understands the technical environment surrounding enterprise data.
You should be comfortable with Databricks, Spark, ETL concepts, and data flows, but your primary strength should beinvestigating data and extracting insights from it.
This role isnot focused on:
-
Building production ETL pipelines
-
Data pipeline engineering
-
Data synchronization
-
Infrastructure engineering
-
Production performance optimization
-
Traditional Data Engineering ownership
If your strength is taking complex data, determining what can be trusted, uncovering meaningful insights, and communicating what the business should do with those insights, this role could be a strong fit.
