A day in the life
Your morning starts by reviewing capital dashboards for anomalies and triaging any data issues before stakeholders begin their day. From there, you're in SQL — pulling diagnostic analyses, isolating spend trends, and identifying the why behind capital allocation shifts across the Operations network.
Midday brings collaboration: walking partners through a new reporting view, aligning on recommendations, and refining dashboards based on leader feedback. You're not just presenting data — you're shaping how insights land for audiences from program managers to VPs.
Afternoons are for building. You're developing automated reporting workflows, exploring new data sources, and documenting your work so others can maintain it. Before signing off, you're prepping for the next leadership readout — making sure the analysis is tight and the story is clear.
