A leading technology company is looking for a hands-on, technical Data Analyst to turn large, complex datasets into clear answers. The most important part of this role is answering one question: “What is the data telling us?” Then you explain that answer in plain, everyday language to business partners who aren’t technical.

What you’ll do

• Pull, clean, validate and transform large datasets from multiple sources
• Write SQL and research queries in BigQuery to answer business questions
• Build dashboards, visualizations and reports in Tableau, including live reporting
• Dig deep with exploratory and ad hoc analysis to find patterns, trends and problems that existing reports miss
• Automate data quality checks so the reporting can be trusted
• Measure whether programs and process changes are working
• Present findings clearly to non-technical stakeholders

What you’ll need

• 5+ years as a Data Analyst, Data Engineer or similar technical role
• Strong SQL with big data experience. BigQuery is strongly preferred.
• Advanced Tableau or a similar visualization tool
• Experience with Cursor or other AI-assisted coding tools
• Strong Google Sheets skills
• Experience with Python or notebooks is a plus
• Excellent communication skills. You can explain technical findings simply and confidently.
• Bachelor’s degree in a quantitative or technical field, or equivalent experience
• Must be authorized to work in the U.S. without sponsorship now or in the future

Why apply: You’ll do high-impact, hands-on data work at a well-known tech company, with a hybrid schedule and a 12-month engagement.
