• Collaborate with business stakeholders to understand needs, gather requirements, and deliver insights

• Monitor and enhance the business intelligence infrastructure, identifying opportunities for automation, optimization, and improved data quality

• Support data governance and data auditing efforts

• Present findings and recommendations to stakeholders, including senior leadership

• Contribute to continuous improvement by evaluating new tools, methods, and approaches

 What you will bring with you:  

• Bachelor’s degree in Information Systems, Computer Science, or a quantitative field (Mathematics, Economics, Finance), or equivalent experience

• 3 years of experience in business intelligence, data engineering, or data analysis

• Proficiency in SQL and working with relational databases

• Experience with business intelligence databases, pipelines, and infrastructure

• Strong communication skills and the ability to translate data into business impact

• Hybrid work supported

• Occasional travel may be required

• Authorized to work in the U.S.

Preferred Skills:

• Comfortable with cloud infrastructure (Azure preferred)

• Experience in healthcare or dental analytics

• Familiarity with scripting or analytical languages (e.g., R or Python)
