In this role, you will:

• Partner with Analytics Engineering, Data Science, Data Engineering, and cross-functional Finance teams to uncover data opportunities where advanced analytics (think: forecasting, classification) can provide actionable insights.
• Lead advanced analytics projects in key Corporate Finance areas (e.g., spend classification modeling, forecasting general ledger categories, and other greenfield opportunities in procurement, operations, and strategy).
• Create and curate robust datasets and data pipelines from structured finance data sources (revenue, expenses, accounting journal entries, vendor invoices) to unlock insights and identify patterns.
• Productionize analytics models in partnership with Data Science and Data Engineering teams, focusing on practical, scalable solutions.
• Help upskill the team on when and how to use classical machine learning and modeling techniques, and when simpler analytics approaches are more appropriate.

• Strong proficiency in Python (including notebooks and modeling skills).
• Advanced SQL skills for analytics data processing (e.g., splitting data into train/eval/test sets).

What Sets You Apart:

• 3+ years of experience in analytics engineering, data science, or a similar data-focused role, ideally with a strong focus or interest in finance.
• Solid statistical foundation, or a strong interest in upskilling in statistics and classical machine learning.
• Examples of applying classical ML techniques (such as classification or forecasting) to real-world problems, especially in the finance domain, are a strong plus.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to translate complex data insights into clear, actionable recommendations for both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Collaborative approach and a passion for continuous learning and innovation.
