Job Description

At WGU, data is a catalyst for better outcomes. As an IAR Senior Data Analyst, you will transform complex information into meaningful insights that help leaders make informed decisions, improve operations, and enhance the student experience. This role partners closely with academic leaders, data engineers, product teams, finance, and other stakeholders to solve challenging business problems through data storytelling, analytics, and reporting.
This position is ideal for someone who combines strong technical expertise with the ability to communicate insights to executive audiences. You are equally comfortable writing complex SQL, developing business intelligence solutions, collaborating on data pipelines, and presenting actionable recommendations to senior leaders.
What You'll Do
  • Partner with stakeholders across academic delivery, reporting, data engineering, and executive leadership teams to identify analytics needs and translate business questions into technical requirements.
  • Develop, maintain, and enhance dashboards, reports, and visualizations that provide actionable insights and support key business decisions.
  • Perform complex analyses across multiple data domains to answer strategic business questions, evaluate initiatives, and support planning activities such as quarterly business reviews and operating plans.
  • Collaborate with Data Engineering teams on ETL/ELT processes, data pipelines, and data quality initiatives to improve the reliability and accessibility of university data.
  • Identify, investigate, and resolve complex data issues while helping establish standards and best practices that improve data quality across the organization.
  • Combine data analysis, visualization, and storytelling techniques to communicate findings effectively to technical and non-technical audiences, including executive leadership.
  • Drive projects and analytics initiatives with a high degree of autonomy while mentoring peers through knowledge sharing and constructive feedback.
What You'll Bring
  • Bachelor's degree in a related discipline.
  • 5 years of related experience in Data Analysis, Business Intelligence, Data Science, Statistics, Decision Intelligence, Research, Learning Science, or Behavioral/Cognitive Psychology.
  • Advanced SQL proficiency, including complex queries, subqueries, joins, aggregations, window functions, common table expressions (CTEs), data manipulation, and performance optimization.
  • Strong experience building reports, dashboards, and visualizations using Tableau.
  • Experience working with analytics engineering concepts, ETL/ELT processes, data pipelines, and data quality initiatives.
  • Ability to read, understand, and work with PySpark code in support of analytics and data engineering efforts.
  • Experience communicating complex insights to partners, stakeholders, and senior leaders through presentations, meetings, workshops, and written communications.
  • Knowledge of data modeling concepts including conceptual, logical, dimensional, star schema, and snowflake schema design.
  • Experience with descriptive statistics, causal analysis, and inference.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office applications, including advanced Excel.
  • Familiarity with project management methodologies such as Agile, Waterfall, or SDLC frameworks.
  • Ability to perform with a high level of autonomy, reliability, self-direction, and sound judgment while balancing multiple priorities.
Bonus Points
  • Experience with Databricks.
  • Experience developing solutions in Power BI.
  • Exposure to Databricks Genie or other AI-assisted coding and analytics tools.
  • Experience using Jira, Confluence, Miro, Visio, Lucidchart, or similar collaboration and diagramming platforms.
  • Previous experience supporting executive reporting, strategic planning, or high-visibility business reviews.
