Workflow Intelligence & Automation

Translate complex, manual, and human-driven workflows into structured, repeatable, and observable systems.
Design SQL- and logic-based transformations that connect data across low-code tools, internal systems, and data lake environments.
Build mechanisms to monitor workflow health, detect anomalies, and surface operational risks.
Support automation initiatives that reduce manual reconciliation and reporting overhead.
Dashboarding & Visualization: Design, develop, and maintain automated Tableau or QuickSight dashboards that provide real-time visibility into KPI health for creative and business stakeholders.

Cross-Functional Partnership

Drive long-term roadmap planning for operational data systems.
Identify opportunities to simplify tooling, reduce operational friction, and improve data trust.
Mentor junior team members and contribute to best practices across the embedded team.
