JOB DESCRIPTION

Job Summary:

As a Payments Finance Transformation Automation Developer you accelerate reporting automation and process modernization.

This role partners closely with P&A leads, Business Managers, Controllers, and Product teams to translate finance requirements into repeatable solutions with strong controls and governance.

• Partner with stakeholders to define requirements, success metrics, and adoption plans; convert ambiguous questions into deliverable backlogs and prototypes.
• Implement data quality and controls: reconciliation checks, completeness rules, threshold alerts, and documentation to support auditability and consistent outcomes.
• Support migration/modernization efforts by reducing reliance on manual workflows and fragmented tooling (e.g., streamline or re-platform legacy workflows where applicable).
• Perform UAT planning/support, production validation, release notes, and stakeholder training/documentation to drive sustained adoption.
• Communicate progress and outcomes clearly to senior stakeholders (what changed, impact, risks/controls, next steps).
• Apply analytics techniques for anomaly detection, variance driver analysis, and forecast input validation, leveraging approved tooling and governed datasets.

Required Qualifications, Capabilities, and Skills:

• 
  
  Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering or a related quantitative discipline.
  
  
• 
  
  4+ years of experience in BI development, data analytics, automation.

• 
  
  Proven ability to translate FP&A/business problems into repeatable automated workflows with measurable efficiency gains.
  
  
• 
  
  Strong stakeholder management and communication skills; able to explain logic, assumptions, and controls.
  
  

Preferred Qualifications, Capabilities, and Skills:

• 
  
  Experience rationalizing report inventories (consolidation, standard definitions, adoption tracking).
  
  
• 
  
  Familiarity with data governance concepts (access controls, sensitivity handling, metric definitions, lineage/runbooks).
  
  
• 
  
  Experience migrating legacy automation tooling into Python/Databricks (if relevant).
