• Improve and modernize analytics pipelines by simplifying logic and reducing technical debt
• Collaborate with technology and data platform teams to ensure Python solutions align with enterprise standards
• Document business logic, assumptions, and data transformations for long-term maintainability
• Ensure accuracy and integrity of analytical outputs through thorough validation and testing
Required Qualifications
• Strong experience with Python for data analysis, including pandas, numpy, and SQL integration
• Working knowledge of SAS, with the ability to confidently read and interpret existing SAS code
• Experience translating or modernizing legacy analytics or reporting logic
• Solid understanding of analytics concepts such as aggregations, joins, time-based logic, and derived metrics
• Experience validating analytical outputs and ensuring data accuracy
• Ability to collaborate with business users and translate analytical requirements into technical solutions
Preferred Qualifications
