1 month ago

Saint John, Canada JDI IT Full time

The Analytics Solution Designer will work extensively with JDI business leaders to guide them through their analytics and data roadmaps. As such, the successful candidate must have a thorough technical understanding of the analytics and data management domains coupled with strong business analysis and leadership skills.

Under general direction from the Director of Data Strategy and Architecture, the Analytics Solution Designer is responsible for discovering, synthesizing, and analyzing information from a variety of sources within the enterprise to recommend the best solutions. Critical to this role is understanding the actual stakeholder needs—which frequently involves investigating and clarifying their expressed goals—to determine underlying issues and causes, as well additional optimization, and alignment opportunities.

The solution designer’s ability to create a technical vision from business goals allows them to act as a catalyst for change within the enterprise, in turn delivering more value to the organization. They consider implications to the business when applying new technology to existing environments, fostering seamless alignment between solutions.

The Analytics Solution Designer plays a critical role in aligning data solutions with the current and future needs of the enterprise. They can recommend, contribute, and facilitate the delivery of complex solutions that enable the achievement of business goals. The Analytics Solution Designer is also a mentor to up-and-coming analytics resources and works to further improve JDI’s standards for the architecture and delivery of data and analytics.
