Working Across Teams
Partner closely with Product, Data Engineering, and business stakeholders to move work from idea to execution
Bring structure to ambiguous problems with support from senior team members
Create analyses, requirement docs, and summaries used by cross-functional teams and leadership

Solid SQL skills and experience working across multiple data sources
A knack for turning fuzzy business problems into clear requirements and real deliverables
Experience defining and documenting KPIs and business rules
Sharp problem-solving skills, great attention to detail, and a bias toward action
Strong communicator — you can explain the logic and the takeaway to both technical and business audiences
Comfort in a fast-paced environment with shifting priorities
Bonus Points For
Hands-on experience with automotive data sources (DMS, CRM, OEM reporting, or third-party automotive datasets)
Background in retail technology, SaaS, or mobility-adjacent industries
