Overview
The organization is seeking a Senior Data Analyst to own forecasting, predictive modeling, and financial data integrity for an e-commerce business.

- Subscription renewal and cancellation likelihood
- Refund and chargeback risk
- SKU-level demand
- Use statistical and machine learning methods including logistic regression, survival analysis, and gradient boosting

- Lead investigations into revenue discrepancies and drive fixes at the source with the Data Engineer
- Define and document the business logic behind financial metrics for the whole organization
Data Transformation & Visualization
- Use dbt or Python to build the financial datasets and models behind forecasting and reporting
- Write efficient SQL in Snowflake that reflects financial business rules
- Design, build, and maintain dashboards in Sigma for Finance and executive leadership
Leadership & Collaboration
- Present forecasts and model findings to Finance and executive leadership, including assumptions and risks
- Review other analysts’ work and mentor them on financial data quality and modeling
