We are seeking a Data Support Analyst to support day-to-day data operations across our enterprise data environment. This role is ideal for a technically skilled professional with experience troubleshooting data issues, supporting business users, and collaborating with data engineering teams.

The primary focus of this role is managing and resolving data-related tickets, including investigating discrepancies, validating data, and coordinating resolutions with business and technical teams. In addition, the analyst will provide ad-hoc support to the Data Engineering team by assisting with pipeline monitoring, data validation, file transfers, and operational tasks across our Azure-based data platform.

  • Support monitoring of scheduled data loads and notify the appropriate teams of failures or anomalies.
  • Help maintain operational documentation, runbooks, and support procedures for common data issues.
Ad-Hoc Data Engineering Support
  • Assist the Data Engineering team with operational tasks such as validating data loads, reviewing pipeline outputs, and troubleshooting minor ETL issues.
  • Support secure file transfer (SFTP) processes and vendor data delivery workflows.
  • Help test and validate changes to data pipelines, reports, and integrations before deployment.
  • Participate in ad-hoc projects related to data cleanup, reporting support, and process automation.
  • Collaborate with engineers and analysts to ensure timely resolution of data-related production issues.
Collaboration & Communication
  • Act as a liaison between business teams, IT support, analytics, and data engineering.
  • Translate business data into actionable technical investigations.
  • Provide clear, professional communication regarding ticket status, findings, and next steps.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement efforts for data support workflows and service delivery.

Education and Experience:

  • Cross Functional Collaboration: Partners effectively with business users, Data Engineering, IT, and Analytics teams to resolve issues and improve data processes.
  • Process Improvement & Documentation: Maintains support documentation, identifies recurring issues, and recommends process enhancements that improve efficiency and service delivery. 

How This Role Demonstrates Our Values:
