About the Role
Our client, a leading enterprise retailer with a large and complex technology and data environment, is seeking a Data Management Analyst to support a major finance application modernization and data platform migration initiative.
In this role, you will focus on data validation, reconciliation, analysis, and reporting as finance data transitions from legacy mainframe applications to a modern Google Cloud Platform (GCP)-based data environment. You will work across engineering, product, finance, and business teams to identify data variances, investigate root causes, and document findings that support critical go-live decisions.
The ideal candidate brings strong hands-on experience with SQL, big data platforms, ETL/data pipelines, Python or PySpark, and data visualization tools. This role requires someone who can independently investigate complex data issues, clearly explain their approach, and collaborate effectively with both technical and business stakeholders.
Job Description
As a Data Management Analyst, you will play a key role in validating data accuracy and consistency between legacy finance systems and the client's modern cloud-based data platform. You will develop queries, datasets, reports, and dashboards that identify variances between systems during modernization and parallel operations. You will then partner with product managers, engineers, finance teams, and business stakeholders to investigate those differences, determine root causes, and document known variances.
Success in this position requires more than high-level familiarity with data technologies. You should be comfortable working directly with large datasets, navigating ambiguous problems independently, explaining the reasoning behind your technical decisions, and asking thoughtful questions to establish a clear understanding of business and technical requirements.
Key responsibilities include:
