Build and maintain automated workflows for data preparation, reconciliations, reporting and follow-ups, with clear controls, monitoring and exception handling.
Build intuitive dashboards and visualizations that help stakeholders understand performance, investigate issues and make decisions.
Resolve finance data issues and reconciliation breaks with Finance, Product and Engineering, addressing root causes and communicating progress.
Build scalable, reliable pipelines to collect, transform and curate data from internal platforms and external systems.
Support the design and rollout of a trusted finance data lake, with clear definitions, ownership and quality checks.
Improve data timeliness, enabling near-real-time insights where they add business value.

A track record of owning pipelines end to end, making sound technical decisions and improving reliability as requirements and systems evolve.
Judgment and autonomy to lead complex work, navigate ambiguity and remain accountable for production outcomes.
Experience supporting recurring financial close activities, combined with a proactive approach to identifying manual processes and replacing them with reliable, sustainable automation.
Excellent communication skills, with the ability to collaborate across Engineering and Finance, explain complex technical issues, articulate financial implications, and recommend actionable solutions.
