• Analyze operational performance trends and deliver data-driven recommendations to improve throughput, quality inspection processing, referral workflows, renewals performance, and integrated distribution oversight.

• Translate complex technical and performance data into executive-ready insights, decision frameworks, and roadmap recommendations.

• Partner cross-functionally with Software and Program teams to prioritize, design, and implement performance improvements.

• Anticipate performance risks and proactively implement improvements before issues materially impact results.

• Set high standards for documentation, analytical rigor, and solution design quality.

• Provide mentorship and guidance to Senior and junior analysts, elevating overall team capability.

• Ad hoc duties and responsibilities as assigned.

• Demonstrated ability to lead complex medium-to-large scale, cross-functional initiatives.

• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to translate complex technical concepts into clear business language.

• Demonstrated ability to turn raw data into actionable insights, executive-ready narratives, and decision frameworks.

• Strong systems thinking and ability to connect operational workflows with platform architecture.
