• Skilled in large dataset management and analysis using Excel, SQL, or Python; data visualization experience in Tableau, Looker, or Power BI.
• Proven experience coordinating with Data Center Operations on large-scale deployments.
• Strong analytical skills with scenario-based forecasting and what-if modeling experience.
• Demonstrated success working cross-functionally with Engineering, Supply Chain, Finance, and Operations.
• Excellent communication and organization skills, translating data into clear, actionable recommendations.
