- Write and refine queries using SQL and other data tools to extract, combine, and analyze information from multiple sources.
- Support data integration and automation activities, including repeatable data-preparation workflows and connections between source systems and reporting tools.
- Collaborate with clients and engagement teams to gather business requirements, define key performance indicators, and translate questions into analytical solutions.
- Prepare clear summaries and presentations that communicate analytical findings, assumptions, limitations, and recommended actions to technical and nontechnical audiences.
- Document data sources, calculation logic, data definitions, analytical procedures, and reporting processes to support consistency and knowledge transfer.
- Apply generative AI and LLM tools, including Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot, and similar solutions, to accelerate data preparation, analysis, documentation, and report generation while validating outputs for accuracy.
- Partner with the WissLabs innovation team on experiments involving AI-assisted analytics, natural-language querying, automated variance analysis, and finance-focused data workflows.
- Research and evaluate emerging analytics, AI, and finance technology tools for potential client applications.
- Participate in quality assurance procedures and ensure analyses and deliverables are accurate, complete, reproducible, and aligned with client expectations.
- Client-facing responsibilities:

- Support the preparation of Statements of Work (SOW), project plans, and scoping estimates for data analytics engagements.
- Manage assigned tasks across multiple projects, communicate status and risks, and consistently meet deadlines.
Qualifications:
- Bachelor's degree in Data Analytics, Business Analytics, Information Systems, Computer Science, Accounting, Finance, Economics, Statistics, or a related field (required).
- Strong analytical, quantitative, and problem-solving skills, with close attention to data accuracy, completeness, and detail.
- Coursework, internships, or project experience using Microsoft Excel and at least one data visualization tool, such as Microsoft Power BI or Tableau.
- Familiarity with SQL, relational data concepts, data modeling, or a programming language used for analysis, such as Python or R, is preferred.
- Ability to interpret business and financial information and communicate findings clearly through written summaries, presentations, dashboards, and client discussions.
- Excellent communication, collaboration, organization, and time-management skills, including the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced, client-service environment.
- Familiarity with generative AI tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, or Copilot, along with a genuine interest in applying LLMs responsibly to finance and analytics work. Hands-on coursework, projects, or prior experimentation are welcome.
- Wiss isn't just a place to work, it's a place to grow. We believe in empowering our people, celebrating individuality, and cultivating a culture that balances innovation, collaboration, and care. If you're passionate about people, growth, and making a lasting impact, we'd love to meet you.
