This role requires strong Python and SQL skills, comfort with operational data, and a passion for building practical analytics and automation solutions.

This position offers a dynamic environment for individuals who enjoy analytical problem-solving, stakeholder management, and technical delivery.
Responsibilities

- Analyze operational workflows to identify bottlenecks, inefficiencies, and opportunities for improvement.
- Use Python and SQL to investigate operational performance, cost-to-serve, customer outcomes, and commercial impact.
- Create proof-of-concept automations using Python, APIs, and LLMs to reduce manual work and improve decision-making.
- Support analysis across areas such as QA, disputes, AML, fraud, customer support, vulnerability, workforce planning, and service operations.
- Translate ambiguous operational problems into clear analytical questions, outputs, and recommendations.
- Work closely with Operations, Product, Data, and senior stakeholders to prioritize and deliver high-impact work.
- Support data quality, metric definition, and reporting consistency as new products and processes scale.
- Present findings clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Requirements
- Minimum 1 year of experience in an analytics, data, operations, or technical role.
- Strong Python skills, including experience with data analysis, automation, and working with structured datasets.
- Strong SQL skills, with the ability to query, join, transform, and analyze large datasets.
- Good understanding of basic statistics, including distributions, averages, variance, conversion rates, confidence, and trend analysis.
- Basic understanding of data science principles, such as classification, prediction, model evaluation, and feature thinking.
- Strong analytical problem-solving skills and the ability to move from problem definition to insight and recommendation.
- Comfortable working in ambiguous, fast-paced environments where priorities can change.
- Able to operate as both a hands-on analyst and a pseudo-PM when required.
- Strong communication skills, with the ability to explain analysis clearly to senior stakeholders.
