Optimization Data Analyst
We are looking for a Data Analyst to join our Optimization Data Analytics team. The ideal candidate is someone who is able to approach and understand complex problems in a structured manner, while converting the results into a compelling and actionable story for internal or external stakeholders, like our merchants. This role will split focus equally between supporting our top customers, and working on automation and scaling projects, leveraging technical skills to enhance team efficiency and support self-service analytics for the Account Management organization.
Whether you come from the payments space or not, we need you to be an independent and enthusiastic thinker who is curious about how the payments ecosystem works and how that fits in with global commerce.
What you’ll do
- Framework Development: Collaborate with cross-functional data teams to develop scalable and reusable frameworks for evaluating large datasets on pressing business questions.
- Data Analysis: Determine the necessary data required to solve a wide variety of business problems; extract required data, draw conclusions, and provide recommendations. Whether it’s providing insights to our key products or facilitating new experiments with our merchants, you’ll be driving new initiatives to help Adyen grow 20x.
- Be a Subject Matter Expert: Act as Adyen’s SME for both merchants and internal stakeholders on payment optimization.
- Data Strategy: Shape the next generation of BI and data infrastructure. Build self-service tools to enable business users and contribute to automation and scaling projects.
- Storytelling: Turn your findings into effective communication and concise, actionable advice by connecting the data to a story. You will be presenting to internal customers, but also to our merchants (the biggest and well known brands in the world) directly.
- Stakeholder Management: Collaborate with Account Managers, Product teams, and other Optimization Data Analysts to align on data best practices and priorities. Gather requirements, provide data insights, and address inquiries. Communicate findings, recommendations, and progress clearly and concisely.
