Technical Data Analyst

Nemours is seeking a Technical Data Analyst.

This position is responsible for performing advanced, investigative analysis of data at or near the source-system level to support Audit and Compliance for operational and strategic needs across the organization.

The Technical Data Analyst works directly with raw and low-level data, developing a deep understanding of source systems, data structures, table relationships, transformations, and business rules that govern how data is created and flows across systems.

The role is accountable for converting complex or ambiguous business questions into structured analytical approaches and producing accurate, defensible datasets and findings.

This role is distinguished by its emphasis on deep data interrogation and structural understanding.

The Technical Data Analyst digs into low-level data and works beyond curated data marts or predefined reporting layers to investigate anomalies, exceptions, edge cases, and inconsistencies.

This includes interpreting data lineage, understanding how upstream processes impact downstream outputs, and reconciling differences between systems, definitions, and reported results.

The analyst frequently prepares single-use or purpose-built datasets to support investigations, audits, research efforts, and complex operational inquiries that cannot be resolved through standard reports or dashboards.

Unlike roles focused primarily on dashboard development, standardized reporting, or data visualization, this position is not centered on producing recurring reports or storytelling artifacts from curated datasets.

The Technical Data Analyst operates as a bridge between raw/source data and business-facing analytics, ensuring that downstream reporting, analysis, and decision-making are grounded in accurate interpretation of source system behavior.

This role is distinct from data science functions and does not primarily focus on statistical modeling, predictive analytics, or algorithm development.

Instead, the Technical Data Analyst specializes in understanding how the data actually works, ensuring that analyses are grounded in accurate interpretation of source systems.
