You'll design and configure proof-of-concepts, serve as a trusted advisor to CFOs, leverage your data architecture knowledge, lead technical workshops, conduct strategic discovery sessions, and provide cross-functional feedback to Product and Engineering.

• Architect and build solutions by designing, modeling, and configuring proof-of-concepts and pilot implementations within Drivetrain to address specific financial pain points.
• Act as a trusted advisor to CFOs and VPs of Finance by translating complex business requirements into robust technical logic, and leading deep-dive technical workshops to demonstrate the platform’s value.

• Agile & Technical: You are comfortable in a fast-paced startup environment where you may need to troubleshoot a data integration one hour and present a strategic roadmap to a CFO the next
• Data Architecture Exposure: You have a working knowledge of how data is stored and structured (Schemas, Dimensions, Cubes). You understand the implications of data granularity and hierarchy management on system performance
• Implementation Heavy: You are not afraid to get your hands dirty with data. You have a track record of actually building models, not just presenting slides. You enjoy the puzzle of translating a messy spreadsheet into a clean, multidimensional model
