We are looking to expand our team with the addition of a Data Quality Analyst. The Data Quality Analyst will work closely with a small group of engineers on our products. Here at OptionMetrics, we emphasize accountability over micromanagement. We're small, agile, casual (no suits – shoes optional), and passionate about our mission and the projects we create. As a Data Quality & Analytics team member, you will have true ownership over your projects from beginning to end.
Note: This position requires working on-site at our NYC location in a hybrid capacity. Current NYC COVID laws require proof of vaccination upon entry to the workplace. Candidates must be willing to reasonably accommodate both requests to be considered.

- Hands-on experience working with data quality and/or data analytics using SQL and Python
- Ability to write and understand advanced SQL (including stored procedures)
- Hands-on experience with data exploration and data visualization
- Passion for Data! Data mining and overall love for working with large data sets.
- Working knowledge of visualization tools such as Tableau
- Expertise in time-series analysis and anomaly detection in large data sets
What Will Make You Stand Out:
- Providing a portfolio of clear, intuitive, and insightful visualizations
- Possessing an understanding of financial market and options data
- Experience working in financial services or investment banking
What We Offer:
- A collaborative environment where everyone's input makes a difference
- Paid time off: Vacation, Personal, Sick days, and Holidays
- Pre-tax commuter benefits (NJT, MTA, etc.) and 401k plan offered

- A bright, open office in Midtown Manhattan near Columbus Circle and steps from Central Park with a great view of Times Square
