Data Analyst (Business Intelligence) - DSLRPros (Enterprise UAS, LLC)

The Role:

They are hiring a Data Analyst to stand up business intelligence at DSLRPros from the ground up and then run it. You will architect and build the reporting stack—centralizing data out of eight SaaS systems and into Looker—then own the company-wide KPI framework and the reporting that sits on top of it.

This is a build-then-operate role, and it is deliberately two-sided. The first half is technical: pipelines, data models, metric definitions, dashboards. The second half is communication. You will present to the executive team monthly and to department teams on a regular cadence, in plain language, with a clear point of view on what the numbers mean and what should change. A dashboard nobody acts on is a failed dashboard here.

You report directly to the Chief Operating Officer and work with every department lead in the business.

What You Will Own:

Standing up the BI stack

• Architect and implement the reporting stack from zero: source connections, a central data layer, and Looker as the reporting front end
• Select and implement the ETL/ingestion approach (Fivetran, Airbyte, native connectors, or direct API) for each source system, with a clear case for the cost and trade-offs of each
• Build clean, documented data models that other people can read and extend
• Make monthly reporting a review step rather than a data-entry exercise

Data integrity

• Pull and consolidate data across Shopify Plus, Pipedrive, QuickBooks Online, ShipStation, PandaDoc, Rippling, Google Analytics, and Asana
• Establish one agreed definition for every metric, so revenue, margin, and pipeline mean the same thing in every report
• Reconcile discrepancies between systems and find the source of the difference rather than reporting around it
• Flag data quality problems and work with department leads to fix them at the source

Measurement and analysis

• Own the company-wide KPI framework and tracker: maintain the definitions, keep targets current, and make sure each department is measured on the right things
• Produce monthly performance reporting for all nine departments across three brands
• Go past the number itself—explain the movement, identify the driver, and flag what leadership should be paying attention to
• Run ad hoc analysis for the executive team on product line profitability, customer segments, sales performance, and operational throughput

Reporting and presentation

• Build and maintain Looker dashboards that department leads open themselves instead of requesting a report
• Produce a monthly executive package that is clear enough to be read cold and short enough to actually get read
• Present findings live to the executive team monthly, and to department teams on a regular cadence
• Turn analysis into specific recommendations rather than leaving the audience to interpret it

Documentation and scale

• Document every data source, definition, model, and process so reporting does not depend on one person
• Build reporting that scales as the company adds departments, brands, and acquisitions
• Recommend and implement improvements to the stack as the business grows

Who You Are:

• You have built a reporting stack before, not just worked inside one someone else built
• You are equally comfortable in a SQL editor and in front of a leadership team
• You think in definitions—you know that “revenue” meaning three different things in three systems is the real problem, not a rounding error
• You make a recommendation rather than handing over a chart and waiting
• You are self-directed and work well with a U.S. team, with a bias toward asking early rather than guessing
• You are fluent in English, with clear verbal and written communication
• You are comfortable being the only data person in the building, and you document accordingly

Experience We're Looking For:

Required

• 3–5 years in a data analyst, business intelligence, or analytics engineering role
• Strong SQL, and hands-on experience building or managing a cloud data warehouse (BigQuery, Snowflake, Redshift, or similar)
• Experience implementing ETL/ingestion from SaaS APIs—Fivetran, Airbyte, or equivalent
• Demonstrated experience building dashboards in Looker or Looker Studio from scratch, including the data model underneath them
• Advanced spreadsheet skills—you can take messy data from several systems and get to a number people can trust
• Proven ability to explain data to people who are not analysts, and to present to executives

Preferred

• E-commerce and CRM data experience, particularly Shopify and a sales CRM such as Pipedrive
• Familiarity with accounting data and financial concepts such as margin, COGS, and contribution
• Python or a similar language for data manipulation and automation
• Experience at a small company where you owned reporting end to end rather than one slice of it
• Experience integrating data from an acquired company into an existing reporting structure
