• Develop Tableau dashboards and visualizations to communicate insights effectively
• Recreate and define new business metrics (e.g., cycle time, team performance metrics) by leveraging backend data sources
• Partner with stakeholders to understand high-level requirements and independently translate them into technical solutions
• Rapidly prototype dashboards and data sets to support evolving business needs
• Troubleshoot data discrepancies and optimize queries and data models for performance
• Work cross-functionally with team members without relying on heavily documented requirements
