This role will support data-driven decision-making across departments, build smart data systems, and automate workflows for operational efficiency.

Key Responsibilities

Data Architecture & Management:

• Design and maintain interconnected Google Sheets systems that mimic relational database structures.

• Normalize and organize datasets across multiple sheets and tabs for consistency and scalability.

• Use Apps Script to automate data processing, integrations, and scheduled tasks.

• Build tools or templates that can be reused across the organization.

Process Improvement & Support:

• Collaborate with teams to understand their data needs and translate them into reliable, user-friendly tools.

• Troubleshoot spreadsheet performance issues and offer scalable solutions.

• Train or support colleagues in best practices for managing and using complex Sheets systems.

Integrations & Automation:

• Integrate Google Sheets with other Google Workspace tools (Forms, Docs, Drive, etc.).

• Use APIs or third-party tools (e.g., Zapier, Make, BigQuery) to connect Sheets to external data sources or systems.

Qualifications

Required:

• 3+ years of professional experience using Google Sheets at an advanced level.

• Expertise with QUERY, IMPORTRANGE, ARRAYFORMULA, VLOOKUP/XLOOKUP, FILTER, REGEX, and other complex formulas.

• Demonstrated ability to use Google Sheets to simulate relational database behavior.

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.

• Proficiency in Google Apps Script or JavaScript.

• Excellent attention to detail and documentation practices.

Preferred:
