• Support developers and analysts with query logic for coverage selection, effective dates, and transaction-based reporting
• Ensure proper understanding of data grain to avoid duplication and misreporting
• Recommend performance improvements (indexing, filtering, query tuning)

Data Quality & Reconciliation

• Develop and execute data quality checks (completeness, validity, referential integrity, duplicates)
• Reconcile data across systems (source staging reporting layers)
• Analyze discrepancies and partner with technical teams to resolve data issues

Documentation & Knowledge Sharing

• Maintain documentation including data lineage, table relationships, and query best practices
• Create reusable SQL scripts, validation checklists, and reconciliation frameworks
• Document known data nuances and business logic considerations

Required Qualifications

• Hands-on experience with Guidewire PolicyCenter data
• Strong SQL skills (complex joins, CTEs, performance tuning)
• Experience validating ETL processes (SSIS or similar tools)
• Solid understanding of data modeling concepts (keys, grain, dimensions/facts, effective dating)

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with data warehouses, ODS, and reporting layers
• Familiarity with BI tools such as Power BI, Tableau, or SSRS
• Experience building data validation frameworks or reconciliation processes
• Understanding of Property & Casualty (P&C) insurance domain and policy lifecycle
