• Interpret operational trends and behaviors, offering recommendations that connect data to on-the-ground realities.
• Facilitate conversations between technical and non-technical groups, ensuring alignment on definitions, processes, and priorities.
• Identify process inefficiencies and propose practical, scalable improvements that balance data capabilities with operational needs.
• Act as a problem-solver and resource for leaders by proactively surfacing insights, risks, or gaps in data quality and business processes.
• Adapt quickly to shifting operational priorities and support teams during time-sensitive decision-making or incidents.
• Build strong relationships across functions to ensure reporting is not only accurate, but relevant, actionable, and trusted by end users.
• Support user adoption by clearly explaining insights, assumptions, limitations, and business impacts.

• Strong proficiency with SQL and experience working with large, complex datasets.
• Familiarity with operational and financial datasets commonly used in energy services.
• Strong business acumen with the ability to connect data patterns to operational outcomes.
• Strong problem-solving abilities and creative analytical thinking.
• Naturally curious with a continuous improvement mindset; asks questions to understand “why,” not just “what.”

• Experience working in operational, field-based, energy services, manufacturing, or industrial environments (asset).
• Exceptional communication skills with the ability to simplify complex data for operators, managers, and executives.
