• Support A/B testing, experimentation, and statistical analysis to evaluate product changes and business outcomes.
• Identify trends, performance gaps, and opportunities for product optimization through data-driven insights.
• Support both newly launched and established products, adapting analytical approaches based on product maturity.
• Explore AI-assisted analytics and dashboard development tools to improve reporting efficiency and analytical workflows.

• Strong hands-on experience with advanced SQL, including complex queries, joins, CTEs, window functions, data transformations, and data modeling.
• Proven experience independently developing dashboards and business intelligence reporting solutions using Tableau, Looker, Power BI, or similar platforms.
• Experience partnering directly with technical and nontechnical stakeholders to gather requirements, define business metrics, and communicate analytical findings.
• Background in product analytics, customer behavior analysis, or business performance measurement, preferably supporting B2C or consumer-facing products.
• Experience working with data instrumentation, event tracking, data validation, ETL processes, or analytical data pipelines.
• Ability to independently manage analytical projects, navigate ambiguous requirements, and deliver actionable insights.
• Strong understanding of data quality, metric definitions, and reporting accuracy.
• Bachelor’s or master’s degree in Data Science, Statistics, Mathematics, Computer Science, Engineering, or a related quantitative field, or equivalent practical experience.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience within fintech, banking, lending, payments, or consumer financial services.
• Hands-on experience with BigQuery, Databricks, or similar cloud data platforms.
• Familiarity with dbt, Airflow, or other ETL and data orchestration tools.
• Experience designing, executing, or interpreting A/B tests and product experiments.
• Exposure to statistical analysis, causal inference, or machine learning fundamentals.
• Experience supporting new product launches, including establishing event instrumentation and reporting frameworks.
• Familiarity with AI-assisted development tools such as Claude, Cursor, or similar technologies.
• Experience using Python or R for data analysis and statistical workflows.
