• Analytical Skills: Hands‑on experience querying data with SQL and visualizing trends using tools like Tableau, Looker, or Metabase.
• Problem‑Solving: Structured analytical mindset with the ability to diagnose complex edge cases (e.g., intermittent payment timeouts, currency conversion rounding).

What Success Looks Like in the First 90 Days

• 30 Days: Develop a solid grasp of our payments architecture, data schemas, third‑party vendor relationships, and current backlog.
• 60 Days: Own and deliver your first feature or gateway enhancement end‑to‑end, writing specs and collaborating with engineers through QA and launch.
