We are looking for a detail-oriented and analytically driven Data Analyst to join our Business Operations team. In this role, you will be the bridge between raw data and meaningful business decisions – maintaining accurate data across platforms, building clear reports, and working closely with cross-functional teams to identify and automate repetitive or inefficient processes.
This is a role that sits at the intersection of data analysis and business operations. You will be expected to understand the “why” behind business requirements, not just the “what”, and translate those requirements into structured, automated, and scalable solutions. A strong grasp of data modelling, database architecture, and ETL processes is essential to succeed in this role.
Key Responsibilities
1. Data Management & Reporting
Maintain data accurately and efficiently across platforms including CRMs (LeadSquared, Zoho) and Google Sheets / Excel
Update and manage recurring reports, ensuring data integrity, consistency, and timely delivery to stakeholders
Build and maintain dashboards using tools such as Looker Studio, Zoho Analytics, Metabase or Power BI
Identify and resolve data discrepancies, anomalies, and root-cause issues – not just surface-level fixes
Ensure reporting logic is transparent, accurate, and trusted by business teams
2. Data Modelling & Database Architecture
Design and maintain clean, well-structured database schemas that serve as a reliable single source of truth
Apply strong data modelling principles – normalisation, dimensional modelling, and entity-relationship design – to support scalable data systems
Make informed architectural decisions around data structures, identifiers, historical vs. current data management, and schema evolution
Ensure data consistency, referential integrity, and reliability across all interconnected systems
Document data models, schema definitions, and architectural decisions to enable long-term maintainability
Collaborate with engineering and operations teams to align database design with business reporting and automation needs
3. ETL Pipelines & Data Orchestration
Build, manage, and monitor ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) pipelines to move and transform data across systems reliably
Work with orchestration tools such as Apache Airflow, Airbyte, or similar platforms to schedule and manage data workflows
Use Python or SQL for data extraction, transformation, validation, and loading into target systems
Integrate data sources using APIs and webhooks to ensure seamless, automated data flow
Optimise pipelines for performance, reliability, and cost efficiency; implement error handling, retries, and alerting
Proactively monitor pipeline health and resolve failures or data quality issues before they impact downstream reporting
4. SQL & Data Analysis
Write and optimise advanced SQL queries for operational and analytical use cases
Extract, clean, and analyse data from relational databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, BigQuery, or similar)
Perform data validation and transformation to support accurate downstream reporting
Analyse data to identify patterns, trends, and actionable insights for business teams
Must-Have
2–3 years of relevant experience in data analysis, analytics engineering, or a related role
Strong proficiency in SQL – ability to write complex, optimised production-grade queries including joins, window functions, CTEs, and subqueries
Solid understanding of data modelling principles – normalisation, dimensional modelling, and relational database design
Hands-on experience with database architecture – designing schemas, managing identifiers, and structuring data for both operational and analytical use
Experience with ETL tools or orchestration platforms such as Apache Airflow, Airbyte, Prefect, or similar
Hands-on experience with at least one reporting / BI tool: Looker Studio, Power BI, Zoho Analytics, Tableau, or similar
Proficient in Microsoft Excel and/or Google Sheets, including formulas, pivot tables, and data validation
Demonstrated ability to understand business requirements and convert them into structured, scalable data solutions
Exposure to AI-assisted analytics, intelligent automation, or LLM-powered data workflows
Strong attention to detail, data accuracy, and logical thinking
Good communication and interpersonal skills for cross-functional coordination
A degree in a relevant field (e.g. Statistics, Computer Science, Business Analytics, Commerce, or equivalent)
Should Have
Experience working with CRM platforms such as LeadSquared, Zoho CRM, or Salesforce
Exposure to cloud data platforms: GCP (BigQuery)
Exposure to automation tools – Make (Integromat), n8n, Zapier, or Google Apps Script
Familiarity with Python for data processing, transformation, and pipeline scripting
Basic understanding of APIs, webhooks, and system integrations
Ability to document data models, processes, and architectural decisions clearly
Experience building or maintaining data pipelines in a production environment
Good to Have
Experience with Apache Superset for self-serve analytics and dashboard creation
Excel Macros or Google Apps Script development experience
Exposure to cloud data platforms: AWS (Redshift / S3), or Azure (Synapse)
Familiarity with dbt (data build tool) or similar transformation frameworks
Structured and process-oriented thinker who sees patterns in chaos
Thinks in systems and data models – not just individual queries or tasks
Proactive ownership – you improve systems without waiting to be asked
Genuine curiosity about data, databases, automation, and how businesses operate
Curiosity about AI-assisted analytics, intelligent automation, or LLM-powered data workflows
Strong problem-solving ability with a logical, methodical approach to challenges
Collaborative team player who communicates clearly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
Willingness to learn and adapt quickly in a fast-paced environment
