About the Role
We’re looking for a Senior Data Analytics Consultant to join Limelight and operate at the intersection of finance, data, and product.
This is a customer-facing but execution-focused role, where you’ll work closely alongside Customer Success, Product, and Project teams to support implementations and ongoing customer success. You’ll play a critical role behind the scenes — ensuring data is accurate, models are scalable, and systems are set up correctly.
Beyond execution, this role is about taking ownership and leveling up how we deliver — identifying patterns, automating repeatable work, and helping scale how Limelight is implemented across customers.
What You’ll Do
- Assist in translating customer requirements into technical setup and configuration
- Help ensure smooth onboarding and ongoing customer success
- Build and maintain business rules, calculations, and planning logic
- Support integrations between Limelight and ERP/accounting systems (Sage Intacct, NetSuite, MS Dynamics, etc.)
- Work with structured data (SQL / PostgreSQL) to validate, transform, and load data
- Understand how data flows from source systems into Limelight and how it maps into the model
- Ensure data is centralized, consistent, and aligned across systems
- Experience working with connectors like Boomi, Datablend, Mulesoft, etc.
- Ensure accuracy and integrity of financial and operational data
- Troubleshoot discrepancies between source systems and Limelight
- Support audibility and transparency in reporting
- Resolve customer tickets related to data, and calculations
- Diagnose and fix issues across models, integrations, and business logic
- Provide timely, clear resolutions to customer challenges
- Identify repeatable processes and opportunities for automation
- Leverage AI and automation to reduce manual work and improve speed
- Surface patterns across implementations to improve internal best practices
- Take ownership of improving how data, models, and workflows are structured
What You Bring
- Experience with FP&A, financial modeling, or finance systems
- Strong understanding of budgeting, forecasting, and reporting processes
- Experience with ERP/accounting systems (NetSuite, Sage, Dynamics, etc.)
- Proficiency in SQL / PostgreSQL and working with structured data
- Experience with data integrations or ETL processes
- Strong analytical mindset — able to understand how data flows and connects across systems
- Ability to identify inefficiencies and proactively improve processes
- Familiarity or interest in AI, automation, or workflow optimization
- Strong attention to detail and problem-solving skills
