  • Expert-level SQL skills; experience with Databricks or similar cloud data warehouses.

  • Proficiency in data visualization tools, particularly Tableau, with a strong eye for visual storytelling and usability.

  • Strong communication and storytelling skills; ability to meet with customers and internal stakeholders to present insights with confidence.
