What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a Business Analyst role where I can build SQL/BI dashboards and KPI reporting, turn requirements into BRDs/user stories, and drive measurable accuracy and efficiency improvements through Agile delivery and strong UAT.

I’m a Business Analyst with 2+ years of experience delivering reporting, data analysis, and dashboard solutions across operations and finance. I translate business needs into measurable KPIs so teams can make faster, more accurate decisions.

I gather and document requirements by authoring BRDs and user stories, using Jira to keep delivery aligned with business objectives. I’ve supported 10+ stakeholders with KPI reporting frameworks, process mapping, and gap analysis.

I analyze and validate large datasets (150,000+ transaction records per month) using SQL, Excel, and Python. I build and maintain Power BI/Tableau KPI dashboards, automate weekly and monthly reporting, and streamline processes—reducing manual effort by up to 45% and improving reporting accuracy by 15%.

I also own quality through UAT coordination, test case development, and defect tracking in Agile/Scrum release cycles. From finance internships, I strengthened my foundation in ledger reconciliation, variance analysis, and management reporting with strong reporting accuracy.
