  • Tableau Dashboards: Design, build, and maintain Tableau dashboards that surface key security metrics, incident trends, and performance indicators for both operational teams and senior leadership.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with Psychometricians, Data Engineering, IT security, and remote proctoring vendors to align on analytical requirements, data quality standards, and the technology landscape - ensuring security data is accurate, timely, and fit for analysis.
  • Requirements Translation: Convert ambiguous needs from Test Security, IT, Legal, and Operations into well-defined analytical requirements and data specifications, maintaining clear documentation of models and methodologies throughout.

  • 5+ years of experience in data analysis or data science with demonstrated progression in technical scope and complexity
  • Expert-level SQL across both Snowflake and SQL Server - stored procedures, query optimization, and complex multi-source joins
  • Proven experience building statistical models and applying machine learning techniques such as classification, clustering, and anomaly detection in a production or near-production context
  • Proficiency in Python, R, Snowflake ML for statistical analysis and model development
  • Experience building and publishing Tableau dashboards for operational and executive audiences
  • Demonstrated ability to communicate complex findings clearly and persuasively to non-technical stakeholders, including senior leadership
