The responsibility of the Data Quality Analyst is to use tools and quality testing techniques to understand and
analyze the company's captured data to ensure data quality (accuracy, consistency, and availability).

data, other than those which may indicate a problem with the data itself.

of key tables and key columns.
? Defining and reporting on periodic (from hourly to yearly) quality metrics, and reporting findings to and
regular review sessions with the data team. This role is also responsible where possible to identify when the
data anomaly occurred and roots cause of data variances.
? Helping to drive change efforts to improve data quality: report issues to Chief Data Scientist, provide regular
updates of packages impacted, communicate issues to the data team.

? Define key performance metrics to track success.
? Ensure ongoing quality of data accuracy (data is correct according to its definition), consistency (the meaning
of the data doesn't change over time) and availability (the data doesn't have gaps).
? Work with the DBA to improve data system and database design to address quality issues.
? Work with other business units to identify areas where there may be concerns about data quality, and to
define acceptable data quality limitations and thresholds.
? Keep up to date with the latest trends and information pertinent to understanding relevant industries (such
as understanding how carrier networks operate so they can understand what the data we are receiving
"should" look like).
? Stay relevant and up-to-date with new testing tools and test strategies.
