Responsibilities

• Be a bridge to the platform — translate consumer needs into feedback for the platformteam, andhelp onboard teams onto new data as it lands.

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years in data analysis,business intelligence, or a similar role delivering analysis that shaped real decisions.
