• Build and maintain dashboards that provide real-time visibility into compensation performance and customer behavior.

• ~5 years of experience in data analytics, business intelligence, or performance management — preferably in e-commerce, CX, or compensation-related roles.

• Strong proficiency in Excel; ability to manage and analyze large datasets.
  Experience with SQL and BI tools (e.g., Looker, Tableau) is highly preferred.
  Prior experience working with CX or financial performance metrics (retention, frequency, refund behavior, etc.) is a plus.

Skills & Competencies:

• High attention to detail; ability to detect subtle behavioral trends and anomalies.
