  • Evaluate and execute appropriate statistical methods for analysis and forecasting of user engagement.
  • Create automated reports using Excel and visualization tools such as Tableau.
  • Ensure data quality by monitoring internal/external data sources, escalating anomalies, and developing workarounds as needed.
  • Work across stakeholders to define technical and business requirements for deliverables.
  • Write and maintain advanced queries using Snowflake SQL and validate new data sources and tools in partnership with data science teams.

Requirements

  • Minimum of one year of experience conducting qualitative business analyses and insights, or relatable work/internships.
  • Advanced Excel and SQL skills.
  • Experience using data visualization tools such as Tableau, Looker, or Microstrategy.
  • Experience in forecasting, scenario planning, and modeling.
  • Exceptional verbal, written, and listening communication skills.

  • Strong analytic skills, high attention to detail, and accuracy in a high-paced, ambiguous environment.
  • Strong organizational and time management skills, with the ability to prioritize and multi-task.
  • Reliable, resourceful, proactive, and able to work independently or in a team setting.
  • Ability to work onsite in NYC 4+ days a week.

Nice to Have

  • Knowledge and understanding of online advertising metrics and web analytics such as Adobe Analytics.
  • Understanding of online metrics including impressions, page views, episode starts, and their relationships.

Qualifications
