• Develop automated data pipelines across systems that bring together information from financial, operational, and business systems.
• Identify and execute opportunities to automate existing financial reporting processes, reducing manual effort and improving the consistency and reliability of recurring deliverables.
• Contribute to the buildout of finance data infrastructure, automate recurring reporting, and reduce reliance on manual, spreadsheet-based processes.
• Partner with Payment Operations to build reporting and analytics around payment volumes, accuracy, exceptions, disputes, and processing performance.
• Develop automated reconciliations and controls to identify missing, duplicate, incorrect, or unusual payments.
• Support the investigation and resolution of payment discrepancies through data analysis.
• Help improve and automate payment workflows, including data validation and exception management.
• Partner with Finance and Operations stakeholders to translate business questions into data models, dashboards, and actionable analysis.
• Establish documentation, data definitions, and controls that improve the reliability and auditability of Finance and Payments reporting.
• Experience with Python or another analytical programming language.

Extra Credit:

• Advanced SQL skills and experience working with large datasets.
• Experience building dashboards and reporting using tools such as Hex, Looker, Tableau, Power BI, or similar.
• Familiarity with modern data warehouses and transformation tools such as Snowflake, BigQuery, Databricks, or similar.
• Strong understanding of data modeling, data quality, reconciliation, and automation.
• Ability to understand financial and operational processes and translate them into technical solutions.
• Strong analytical mindset and ability to independently investigate discrepancies and ambiguous data problems.
• Experience working with Finance teams strongly preferred.
• Experience with payment operations, high-volume contractor payments, or other transaction-heavy environments is a plus.
