[Hiring] Data Analytics, Finance Contractor @KAYGEN

Role Description

Seeking a Senior Finance Modernization/Finance Data Systems resource.

• Inventory metadata and source data across all databases in scope (FN, FR to start with).
• Understand and document detailed input sources, data lineage, data movement, controls, and downstream reporting dependencies.
• Compare data elements across FN, FR, AVD, LTC, and GPR to identify common fields, differences, and normalization needs.
• Compare source system inputs to what currently exists in the cloud / Databricks environment.
• Identify data gaps, quality issues, missing attributes, control gaps, and reconciliation needs.
• Support the creation of a data dictionary, including definitions, naming conventions, metric definitions, and business rules.
• Partner with the Data Architect, Data Modeler, Pipeline Engineers, database SMEs, actuarial SMEs, and project leadership to support Bronze Layer readiness and future-state data design.

Qualifications

• Finance domain expertise: Experience with subledgers, general ledger hierarchies, accounting engines, valuation systems, actuarial reserves, and statutory/GAAP reporting.
• Finance transformation experience: Ability to support finance systems implementation or modernization programs and work with Controllers, finance teams, or actuaries.
• End-to-end delivery ownership: Experience leading requirements, design, build, testing, implementation, and delivery—not only documentation or requirements gathering.
• Data engineering depth: Strong SQL, ETL development, data transformation, profiling, and validation capabilities.
• Data lineage expertise: Ability to create and manage element-level critical data element traceability across multiple systems, including legacy and undocumented ETL processes.
• Modern data platform experience: Hands-on experience with Databricks, medallion architecture, and preferably Azure-based data platforms.
• Legacy data experience: Exposure to mainframe datasets and complex source-system environments.
• Senior stakeholder leadership: Ability to independently lead workstreams, manage issues, coordinate remediation, and communicate with both technical and business stakeholders.
• Strong data analysis and data stewardship skills, including experience with data profiling, metadata documentation, source-to-target mapping, data dictionaries, reconciliation, and working with technical and business SMEs.
• An actuarial or valuation background would be highly valuable since this work will directly support actuaries and Controllers within OCA.
• Experience with SQL highly preferred.
• Strong knowledge of Data Governance.
