We are looking for a technical Data Analyst, skilled in SAP BusinessObjects (BO 4.x), to design, maintain, and operate robust, parameterized data extraction queries covering our parts sales business.

* Design, develop, and maintain complex Web Intelligence (WebI) documents based on SAP BO universes to extract detailed purchase and sales datasets.
* Develop & maintain parameter-driven queries to support reusable and scalable extracts.
* Optimize query performance (joins, contexts, filtering strategy, object usage) to meet refresh SLAs and reduce system load.

2) Data modeling, consistency & reconciliation

* Identify and manage data anomalies (duplicates, missing keys, incorrect joins, out-of-scope records).
* Maintain technical documentation: query logic, KPI formulas, object definitions, refresh dependencies.
* Develop ad-hoc queries depending on users’ needs

* Implement FTP/SFTP automated file delivery:
* Secure authentication, directory structures, file lifecycle management.
* Compliance with agreed transmission protocols and supplier specifications.
* Monitor scheduled jobs and proactively resolve failures (data, performance, or infrastructure-related).

4) Security, access & compliance

* Apply data access restrictions at report, query, and recipient level (supplier‑specific scopes, regional segmentation).
* Ensure compliance with data governance and confidentiality rules when sharing commercial data externally.
* Maintain full traceability of data extracts delivered to third parties (what, when, to whom, and on which scope).

5) Interfaces & change management

* Act as a technical interface between Business teams (Buying Group, Sales, Finance), IT/Data teams, and external recipients.
* Translate business requirements into technical data extraction specifications & manage changes to existing extracts

Technical Deliverables:
