About this Role
GiveDirectly’s Fundraising team is responsible for unlocking significant, sustained funding to scale direct cash transfers globally.

You will be responsible for building the curated data models that power reporting, forecasting, and decision-making. Our data infrastructure is built on AWS and Databricks, with dashboards and visualizations in Tableau.
