About the Role

We're hiring a technically strong Senior Data Analyst to help modernize how our FP&A organization uses data, analytics, and automation. This is an embedded Finance role: you'll report directly to the FP&A Director and work side by side with her day to day while partnering closely with our central Data Analytics and Data Engineering teams on infrastructure, standards, and complex technical problems. It's a hands-on execution role for someone who builds.

Financial and operational data at Welocalize lives across multiple systems - Workday Financials, Adaptive Planning, Salesforce, a Redshift data warehouse, Power BI, and years of Excel workbooks carrying critical processes. Much of it doesn't connect cleanly, and a lot of institutional knowledge lives in undocumented spreadsheets, manual processes, and Power Queries rather than any system of record.

You might start with a complex, years-old Excel workbook and a simple prompt: “This is how we do this today.” Your job isn't to automate the workbook as-is - it's to understand its purpose, trace its logic to source, figure out what users actually need, and design something better: a rebuilt pipeline, a SQL/Python replacement, a driver-based view, an exception-monitoring workflow, or an AI-assisted tool.

We're just starting to build out an FP&A AI repository - documentation, business logic, and workflows meant to let AI reliably execute FP&A processes, not just answer one-off questions - and you'll partner with us to determine its direction.

This role is a deliberate combination of three things:

1. Fluency with data itself - the ability to query, shape, and manipulate data directly.

2. An engineering mindset - building automated, repeatable systems (workflows and dashboards that run and refresh on their own, integrations across tools) rather than one-off analysis, and knowing how to scope and coordinate real pipeline or data mart work with Data Engineering.

3. An investigative instinct - the ability to look at data and figure out what it's telling us, not just execute a report exactly as specified.

What You'll Do

Partner directly with FP&A leadership to understand existing reporting, analytical, and planning processes and identify where they should fundamentally change, not just get faster.

• Reverse-engineer complex Excel workbooks and manual processes to understand their data sources, business logic, calculations, and the questions their users are actually trying to answer.

• Design and build automated solutions using SQL, Python, ETL/data transformation, APIs, and modern AI tools.

• Work through large, imperfect, multi-system datasets - resolving data quality, mapping, reconciliation, and grain issues along the way.

• Perform exploratory analysis to identify trends, anomalies, relationships, and underlying business drivers, rather than simply reporting what happened.

• Design dashboards and reporting experiences around the
