Senior Data Analyst

Location/City: Any US location (offices in Atlanta, GA and Playa Vista, CA)

Responsibilities

We are looking for a sharp, highly-motivated Senior Data Analyst to join our team. If you have a natural curiosity, the technical skill to apply that curiosity in investigating large data sets, and an ability to tell a story with data and visualization, we want to hear from you! This is a high-impact role that will bridge the gap between the business and data by collaborating with our executive stakeholders and our external partners to derive insights from our data and drive improvements to the business. In addition to helping the company make data-driven decisions to improve operations, your work will be used in newspaper and magazine articles and in discussions with policymakers. This will require a solid understanding of the company’s strategic and operational goals as well as a customer-first mindset and the ability to communicate at the executive level.

As a Senior Data Analyst, you will:

• Work with our bank transaction and customer event data to develop insights about the nature of employment and earnings for our Members.
• Surface data-driven insights that drive strategy and optimal decision making for the leaders across the organization.
• Create visualizations and other reporting that distill complex data into actionable information for executives and external stakeholders.
• Help drive a data-first culture where data is understood and leveraged in decision making.
• Effectively balance competing priorities and deadlines, with an eye on both short term delivery with long term direction and value.
• Create testing and monitoring processes to ensure that our data is of the highest quality.
• Automate relentlessly so your and others’ time can be spent on high-value analysis rather than running reports.
• Collaborate with the data team and Chief Data Officer to define the technical strategy for Steady’s data ecosystem

Skills & Requirements

• Minimum of 3 years experience (5-7 years preferred) performing exploratory data analysis to understand the characteristics of a data set and identify patterns.
• Demonstrated experience of efficient manipulation and storage of large datasets
• Comfortable dealing with ambiguity, making assumptions, drawing conclusions and distilling complex analysis for non-technical audiences
• Outstanding verbal and written communication skills with the ability to interact at all levels of the organization as well as with external stakeholders
• Hands on experience and expertise with SQL, Spark, Python (preferred) or R
• Strong data visualization skills (experience with Tableau preferred)
• Experience with data warehousing, preferably with Snowflake, and knowledge of ETL/ELT best practices.
• Familiarity and experience with the AWS data ecosystem (S3, AWS Glue, EMR, etc.)
• Experience with bank or credit card transaction data preferred
• Experience with statistical models and machine learning or with working closely with Data Scientists a plus
• Comfortable working cross-functionally with different parts of the organization and with distributed teams across multiple offices and timezones
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial, high-energy environment with shifting priorities
