About the role

Senior Data & BI Automation Analyst at Obviant responsible for leading analytics and data pipeline initiatives, designing automated reporting frameworks, building data delivery mechanisms, and replacing manual workflows with self-service data systems to scale decision-making and optimize business performance.

Responsibilities

  • Architect, deploy, and maintain automated reporting frameworks, self-updating dashboards, and data delivery pipelines using modern BI tools and orchestrators.
  • Audit existing manual reporting processes across teams, replacing fragmented spreadsheets and ad-hoc queries with automated, production-grade scripts and data workflows to determine requirements for fully automated systems.
  • Interface directly with business leaders, cross-functional teams, and government partners to conduct targeted analytics, understand operational workflows, and translate complex business needs into scalable, automated solutions.
  • Partner closely with Data Engineering to design and optimize analytical data models, automated data transformations, and scheduled ELT/ETL jobs (e.g., via dbt or Airflow).
  • Collaborate with Product, Marketing, and Operations teams to translate complex, automated data models into clear, actionable, self-service business insights.
  • Pioneer automated data quality frameworks, monitoring systems, and scalable metrics trees as Obviant expands.

Qualifications

  • 4+ years of professional experience in data analytics, BI engineering, or data automation, with a proven track record of automating operational workflows.
  • Degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Mathematics, Statistics, Economics, or a field with a strong quantitative/technical focus preferred.
  • Advanced proficiency in SQL and experience with modern transformation layer tools (e.g., dbt) for building scheduled, production-grade data models.
  • Strong programming skills in Python using libraries for API integration, data manipulation, and task automation (e.g., Pandas, Airflow, Prefect, or custom cron jobs).
  • Deep hands-on experience setting up automated, self-service BI dashboards and semantic layers using enterprise tools (e.g., Looker, Tableau, Power BI).
  • Proven ability to distill complex automated architectures and data models into clear, actionable business narratives for technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Strong project management skills with the ability to take an automation project from scoping and architecture design through execution and stakeholder adoption.
  • Ability to thrive in an ego-free, highly collaborative, and fast-paced environment.
