Checkr is looking for an Operations Analyst to join our Operations Insights & Analytics team. In this role, you’ll be the primary analytics partner for Truework’s operations team, directly supporting their strategic and operational decisions. You’ll need to context-switch between hands-on data work and strategic analysis, thrive in ambiguity, and be energized by making messy things clean.

What You'll Do

Build and maintain models for cost, headcount, and operational performance that inform leadership decisions across Truework operations.
Track and analyze team performance week-over-week, identifying trends, bottlenecks, and opportunities for efficiency gains.
Translate technical findings into clear recommendations for stakeholders at all levels, from operational teams to executive leadership.
Define and standardize key operational metrics, working with stakeholders to ensure shared understanding of definitions and methodology.
Consolidate and rebuild existing dashboards, validating data accuracy and filling gaps in coverage.
Build production dashboards and self-service reporting in Omni Analytics, giving Truework’s operations teams reliable visibility into team performance.
Improve and expand existing data models to support reliable analytics across Truework’s operations.
Write and maintain dbt models, manage data pipelines, and work with raw database schemas to strengthen analytical foundations.
Identify and fix data quality issues — bad joins, missing records, misaligned definitions — before they become reporting problems.
Contribute hands-on to migrating Truework’s data infrastructure onto Checkr’s systems, working independently to navigate unknowns and solve technical problems as they arise.

What We're Looking For

5+ years of experience in analytics, data engineering, or a hybrid role — ideally in a high-growth or startup environment where you’ve had to build things from scratch.
Advanced SQL: complex joins, window functions, CTEs, query optimization. You should be able to navigate unfamiliar database schemas and figure out how data fits together.
Hands-on experience with data modeling and pipeline tools (dbt, Airflow, or similar). You’ve built and maintained data models, not just queried them.
Strong BI experience building production dashboards (Looker, Tableau, or similar). You know how to design reporting that’s actually useful, not just comprehensive.
Comfort working in ambiguous environments with incomplete information. You don’t wait for perfectly defined requirements — you figure out what’s needed and start building.
Strong communication skills: you can explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders and advocate for data quality and infrastructure investments.
An A-player mindset with a strong bias for action: you raise the bar, move with urgency, stay resilient through ambiguity, and take ownership to deliver meaningful outcomes.

Nice to Have

Python for data manipulation, scripting, and statistical analysis.
Experience with data migration projects — moving data between systems, reconciling schemas, validating parity.
Domain experience in operations analytics, fintech, or verification/identity services.
Familiarity with version control (Git) and software engineering practices in an analytics context.

Technical Stack

SQL, dbt, Airflow, Looker, Tableau, Omni Analytics, Python, Git
