This is a high-impact analytics role focused on creating a trusted, company-wide source of business intelligence. You will connect data across finance, revenue, product, customer success, operations, engineering, and leadership to enable faster and more informed decisions. The role combines hands-on analytics, data modeling, reporting automation, and strategic business partnership. You will build dashboards, pipelines, metric definitions, and analytical frameworks that make complex business performance easier to understand and act upon. AI-powered tools and agents will be an important part of the role, helping automate recurring analysis and enable self-service insights. Working closely with Data Engineering and senior leaders, you will have significant autonomy to improve how data is collected, interpreted, and used across the organization.

  • Extend revenue reporting into shared dashboards, including MRR/ARR movements, revenue by segment and product, collections, billing risk, and reconciliation across bookings, invoiced revenue, and collected revenue.
  • Develop cohort, retention, and revenue analyses that explain the underlying drivers of business performance.

  • Connect product usage patterns with customer retention and expansion to identify meaningful business trends.
  • Develop comprehensive customer health reporting that combines product usage, support activity, and customer sentiment.
  • Identify renewal risks and expansion opportunities and provide actionable insights to Customer Success and Sales teams.
  • Partner with Revenue Operations to connect pipeline, funnel, campaign, attribution, and sales-cycle data with broader business metrics.
  • Own recurring executive business review reporting and support board reporting, OKR tracking, and company-wide performance reviews.
  • Act as a strategic thought partner to functional leaders by translating business questions into meaningful analysis and actionable recommendations.
  • Build AI-enabled reporting solutions, including natural-language query agents that can translate business questions into validated SQL or database queries.
  • Develop automated anomaly detection and alerting for critical metrics and proactively surface unusual trends to relevant stakeholders.
  • Use AI tools to accelerate business review analysis, identify inconsistencies across systems, and extract insights from customer conversations and support data.
  • Package successful AI-driven workflows and analytical automations into reusable internal tools that can scale across teams.
  • Map existing systems and reporting dependencies during the first 90 days and prioritize the highest-value reporting gaps.
  • Establish trusted product usage, customer health, and revenue reporting within the first six months, including launching at least one AI-powered reporting workflow adopted outside the Data function.
  • Requirements

    • 5+ years of experience in data analytics, business analytics, analytics engineering, or a comparable cross-functional analytical role.
    • Strong SQL skills and hands-on experience with cloud data warehouses, ideally Amazon Redshift.
    • Experience with BI and visualization platforms such as ThoughtSpot, Looker, Tableau, Mode, Hex, Power BI, or comparable tools.
    • Demonstrated experience using AI tools such as Claude, ChatGPT, or similar technologies to automate analysis, accelerate reporting, or build analytical agents.
    • Experience developing data models or semantic layers that enable multiple teams to work from consistent metrics and definitions.
    • Proven ability to connect, reconcile, and analyze data across disparate systems such as CRM, billing, ERP, product, and support platforms.
    • Strong understanding of data quality, reporting automation, metric governance, and business intelligence processes.
    • Excellent stakeholder management skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with Engineering, Data Engineering, Finance, Sales, Customer Success, Operations, and executive leadership.
    • Ability to challenge assumptions constructively, clarify ambiguous requests, and translate business questions into practical analytical solutions.
    • Experience querying NoSQL or document databases, particularly MongoDB and its aggregation framework, is preferred.
    • Experience in fintech, SaaS, or usage-based or subscription business models is advantageous.
    • Familiarity with AI coding tools such as Claude Code and sufficient Python and SQL knowledge to review, debug, and validate generated code.
    • Experience partnering with existing Finance and Revenue Operations analytics teams without duplicating their responsibilities.
    • Experience evaluating, selecting, or migrating BI and analytics platforms as an organization scales.
