This person is naturally curious, asks "why?" before "how?", and isn't afraid to challenge assumptions to protect data integrity and improve processes. You'll manage, update, and audit databases, partner with stakeholders to gather requirements, and help ensure our data is accurate, reliable, and usable. This is a great fit for someone who blends hands-on database skills with a business analyst mindset—someone who can independently clarify needs, translate them into data logic, and validate results end-to-end. ________________________________________ Key Responsibilities Maintain, update, and audit relational databases (PostgreSQL), ensuring accuracy, consistency, and traceability. Write and optimize SQL queries, including multi-table joins, aggregations, and validation checks. Perform data quality checks, reconcile discrepancies, and document root causes and fixes. Build and maintain Excel-based audit tools (pivots, lookups, Power Query as applicable) for reporting and verification. Partner with internal users to gather requirements, challenge unclear requests, and translate business needs into data definitions and logic.

Support process improvements and controls around data updates, permissions, and governance. ________________________________________ Required Qualifications Strong SQL experience, including PostgreSQL (or equivalent with ability to ramp quickly).

Advanced Excel skills (filters, pivot tables, XLOOKUP/VLOOKUP, data validation; Power Query is a plus). Demonstrated experience performing data audits and documenting findings, remediation steps, and outcomes (repeatable + traceable work). Comfortable owning ambiguous requests and independently questioning stakeholders to gather requirements and confirms data definitions before building. Can explain logic and assumptions clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Shows critical thinking, asks "why," identifies risks and edge cases, and proposes better approaches rather than executing blindly. Proven ability to investigate inconsistencies, ask probing questions, and validate assumptions. Strong written and verbal communication; comfortable working directly with stakeholders. ________________________________________ Nice-to-Have Qualifications Mechanical or engineering background/familiarity (or experience supporting engineering/asset-heavy environments).
