About the role

The Payments domain is scaling fast across debit, credit, and cross-border, and you'll own the analytics that keep delivery stable and decisions grounded in data.

What you'll do

- Work across a growing Payments domain spanning debit, credit, and cross-border payments, with expanding scope in mobile and transaction feed analytics.

- Support analytics for new initiatives, including the Daily Banking launch, alongside ad-hoc deep-dive analyses.

What you'll own

- Own mobile analytics end-to-end — requirements, monitoring, funnel and drop-off analysis, research, and documentation.

- Own Transaction Feed analytics for the Salmon App — merchant naming standardization, transaction categorization, and icon mapping logic.

- Build and maintain dashboards, reporting, and self-serve analytics for Payments products across debit, credit, and cross-border.

- Monitor key payment metrics and identify trends, gaps, and opportunities for improvement.

- Support forecasting and financial reporting for credit products and bills payment streams.

- Deliver clear stakeholder presentations that turn analysis into decisions.

What makes you a strong fit

- 2+ years in data analytics, preferably in fintech or payments.

- Hands-on experience with product analytics tools such as Amplitude (or similar platforms like Mixpanel, Firebase Analytics, or GA4) for tracking user behavior across the mobile app, analyzing funnels, drop-off, retention, and feature adoption.

- Strong SQL skills and hands-on experience with BI and data visualization tools (Tableau, Looker, Metabase, or similar).

- Familiarity with transaction data, including payment flows, categorization, reconciliation, and data quality issues.

- Ability to translate business questions into analytical frameworks and actionable insights.

- Experience with forecasting, financial reporting, or working in a high-growth product environment.
