  • Use AI-native development tools (like Cursor and dbt Copilot) to accelerate modeling workflows to deliver high-performance Tableau and Mode reports that drive strategic decision-making

  • Comfortable partnering cross-functionally and translating between technical analysis and business decision-making in a fast-moving, ambiguous startup environment, where priorities evolve and roles are not rigidly defined
