Data & Business Analyst
Data analysts in this role work within cross-functional AI teams to translate complex operational and product data into strategic insights that drive autonomous vehicles, cloud infrastructure, or revenue intelligence platforms forward. They distinguish themselves through deep technical execution—building scalable data pipelines and advanced SQL models that surface not just what happened, but why it matters for the business—while partnering closely with product, engineering, and leadership to shape high-stakes decisions. These analysts typically sit within dedicated analytics or data science teams embedded in larger organizations, serving as bridges between technical data infrastructure and business strategy in fast-moving AI companies.

A dash means too few postings stated it to report a midpoint. Most companies do not publish a salary band, so pay is indicative rather than a market rate. 3 levels with fewer than 10 open postings are not shown.
