• Create complex SQL queries and perform ad hoc and exploratory data analysis to describe the impact of new features and answer questions from both internal and external customers
• Develop reporting in Tableau to provide self-serve access to business end users

• Experience working with business stakeholders to understand problems and engineers to understand data sources
