Position Overview

We are seeking a highly self-directed Data Analyst to identify, develop, and implement data-driven solutions for Telco Engineering & Operations. Rather than working only from predefined reporting requirements, this role is expected to understand business and operational problems, investigate available data, define analytical requirements, and independently build solutions that improve visibility, automate manual work, and accelerate decision-making.

The analyst will use modern analytics, automation, and AI tools to rapidly explore problems, develop data models and analytical products, validate results with business and technical stakeholders, and transition successful solutions into repeatable operational use.

This role is not limited to executing predefined reporting requests. The analyst is expected to proactively identify opportunities, formulate requirements, develop and test analytical solutions, and carry successful work from initial investigation through operational use. Success requires technical curiosity, sound judgment, ownership, and the ability to make progress when requirements are incomplete or ambiguous.

Key Responsibilities:

• Proactively investigate Telco workflows, data, and operational processes to identify opportunities for improved visibility, automation, and decision support
• Frame ambiguous business and operational problems into analytical questions and independently define the data, measures, logic, and tooling required to address them
• Develop analytical hypotheses, explore available data, challenge assumptions, and identify performance drivers without requiring fully formed business requirements
• Rapidly prototype solutions using SQL, Python, Power BI, AI-assisted development, and approved automation tools, then validate value before scaling
• Build repeatable data transformations and analytical datasets using SQL, Python, Power Query, APIs, and approved automation tools
• Integrate information from multiple operational systems to reduce manual reconciliation, duplicate reporting, and disconnected analysis
• Automate recurring data preparation, validation, analysis, and reporting workflows
• Partner with Digital Platforms and Information Technology when solutions require governed production integrations, enterprise architecture, or operational support
• Build Power BI dashboards, models, and analytical products that answer operational and management questions and expose underlying performance drivers
• Perform ad hoc, trend, variance, root-cause, forecasting, and scenario analysis for Telco Engineering & Operations
• Prepare analytical datasets and models that support planning, deployment, capacity, cost, schedule, inventory, risk, and operational decisions
• Translate analytical findings into concise conclusions, recommendations, and next actions for business and technical stakeholders
• Validate source data, analytical logic, AI-assisted outputs, and calculations against authoritative data and documented business rules
• Develop data-quality checks, reconciliation rules, exception reporting, and repeatable tests for analytical products
• Document sources, transformations, assumptions, metric definitions, dependencies, lineage, and known limitations
• Work with accountable data owners to resolve data-quality issues at the source
• Transition successful prototypes and analyses into repeatable operational products, workflows, or governed reporting
• Monitor usage, reliability, refresh performance, data quality, and business usefulness after deployment
• Use AI-assisted development and analytics tools to accelerate SQL, Python, data exploration, documentation, testing, and workflow automation while independently validating results
• Continuously improve solutions based on observed performance, user feedback, new data, and changing operational needs

Qualifications 

Education:

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Telecommunications, Systems Engineering, or a related technical field
• Master’s degree in Engineering Management or an advanced technical discipline preferred

Experience:

• Minimum of 15+ years of experience in telecommunications, satellite communications, wireless networks, or similar technical domains
• At least 5+ years managing highly technical teams in a complex engineering environment 

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience working with large-scale, integrated network systems in lab or pre-production environments
• Strong background in end-to-end system validation and testing methodologies
• Experience developing automated validation or testing frameworks
• Familiarity with complex network architectures and system integration
• Proven ability to replicate and troubleshoot production-level issues in controlled environments 

Soft Skills:

• Strong leadership and team-building capabilities
• Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills
• Proven ability to collaborate across cross-functional technical teams
• Strong interpersonal and stakeholder management skills
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Meticulous attention to detail to ensure the accuracy of validation processes and results
• Ability to manage competing priorities in a fast-paced environment 

Technology Stack:

• Telecommunications technologies including radio access and core network systems
• Understanding of modern network architectures and validation methodologies
• Experience with test automation frameworks and tools
• Familiarity with lab infrastructure and simulation environments
• Tools used for system monitoring, testing, and performance analysis
• General knowledge of distributed systems and network integration 

Physical Requirements:

• Ability to work in a standard office or lab environment and use a computer for extended periods
• Ability to interact with lab equipment and hardware systems as needed
• Capability to participate in virtual and in-person meetings
• Will require extensive travel based on business needs
