Why It Might Be a Fit

You will be a natural ‘data detective’ who can proactively hunt down unfamiliar or undocumented upstream systems, ask the right investigative questions to decode their data structures, and document the requirements.

Requirements

• 5+ years of experience as a Technical Data Analyst, Database Developer, or Technical Business Analyst, with a proven track record of transforming data and translating business needs into technical database solutions.
• Expert-level, hands-on SQL skills, with deep practical experience building database views, designing table schemas, and writing performant joins, CTEs, and window functions in Snowflake (or similar cloud data warehouses).
• Mastery of running technical discovery, asking critical-thinking questions to uncover true business needs, and mapping business rules into technical specifications.
• Demonstrated ability to independently research unfamiliar data sources, collaborate with external business stewards, and rapidly synthesize how external databases connect to your team’s models.
• Strong organizational skills with experience managing a project queue, setting realistic delivery expectations, and navigating competing priorities across multiple teams.
• Exceptional ability to bridge the communication gap while explaining technical database schemas to business partners and business-level requirements to technical database engineers.
