Business Intelligence Analyst II

About the Team/Role

The Business Intelligence Analyst II serves as a technical architect and automation lead within one or more of the domain areas within the Global Risk Operations organization. You will leverage enterprise-approved tools—Tableau, Python, SQL, and RPA—to modernize legacy workflows and drive operational scale. This role is the bridge between theoretical efficiency and the deployment of hardened, audit-ready automation.

You are a change agent dedicated to the continuous improvement of the department’s technical and automation capabilities. Your success will be determined by your ability to modernize the risk landscape through governed self-service. You will be evaluated on three primary pillars - operational scale, efficiency and impact, and integrity and compliance.
