Why is this role important for us?

Atlan thrives on making smart, data-informed decisions. As a Senior Data Analyst, you are central to this. You'll dive deep into our data to uncover critical insights that others miss.

2. You will partner closely with various teams (like Product, Marketing, Sales, and Success) to understand their challenges and opportunities.

3. You'll conduct in-depth analyses, design experiments, and identify key trends using SQL, our BI platform (Sigma), and potentially Python/R for advanced techniques.

4. You will champion an AI-first approach to analysis, seeking innovative ways to extract deeper meaning.

5. Your goal is to deliver compelling insights and clear recommendations that empower your stakeholders to achieve better outcomes.

What makes you an ideal match?

We're looking for a curious, analytical, and collaborative individual passionate about using data to solve problems.

1. Technical Skills: You have strong SQL skills and experience wrangling complex datasets. You're proficient with BI tools (like Sigma) for exploration and visualization. Experience with Python or R for statistical analysis or modeling is a major plus, aligning with our AI-first approach.

2. Analytical Mindset: You excel at breaking down ambiguous problems, formulating hypotheses, conducting deep-dive analyses, and synthesizing findings into actionable insights. You think critically about data quality and context.

3. Communication & Storytelling: You can clearly communicate complex findings and the "story" behind the data to diverse audiences, both technical and non-technical. You create compelling visualizations and narratives.

4. Collaboration & Influence: You build strong relationships and work effectively with cross-functional teams. You can translate business needs into analytical questions and influence decisions with data.

5. Proactive & Curious: You don't wait for instructions; you proactively explore data, ask probing questions, and seek out opportunities to drive impact. You're eager to learn and apply new analytical techniques.

6. AI Ready: While you don’t need to be an AI expert, you need to be exploring the future of AI on analytics, data engineering and business intelligence and ready to make decisions that lay the groundwork for an AI centric data estate
