Senior Data Analyst

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

We are dedicated to building a developer-centric Business Intelligence (BI) solution. Our goal is to track, visualize, and measure development and product-related metrics from multiple sources to gain valuable insights into various business segments.
We are developing a robust BI solution that spans four critical data segments:
Products - Insights on product usage related to software.
Planning/Financials - Retrospective planning and financials, focusing on capitalization, depreciation, spend, and assets.
Development Implementation - Insights on development performance (e.g., DORA), although this is not a current priority.
Our priority is to enhance visibility into our “NEEDS Process” and software capitalization & depreciation process. We have integrated data from Jira and an internal Resource Management Tool into a BigQuery and Looker-based solution, with plans to integrate Datadog.
