• Work with complex financial datasets derived from public-company filings, sell-side estimates, market data, and corporate actions.
• Apply financial-data concepts such as point-in-time data, security master management, calendarization, restatements, and historical data tracking.
• Design and document transparent, auditable data processes with clear lineage from source to final output.
• Develop automated data-quality frameworks, including validation rules, reconciliation checks, exception monitoring, and statistical anomaly detection.
• Investigate data discrepancies and implement scalable solutions to prevent recurring issues.
• Partner with product, engineering, and business teams to ensure accurate and timely delivery of financial data.
• Communicate complex data logic, financial concepts, and quality issues clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
