In this role, you will research, design, and build comprehensive rate cards for flying, fuel, and pass-through costs for each of client  Air's partner air carriers. You will work with large, complex datasets sourced from web-based platforms, industry databases, past invoice correspondence, and contractual terms to create a scalable, low-maintenance solution that continues to deliver value well beyond the contract period. This is a high-impact opportunity to shape how client Air manages, benchmarks, and executes air carrier payments across its global network.

• Design and build comprehensive rate cards covering all air carriers and airports across US, Canada, Europe, and India, determining the most effective data architecture and structure for ongoing usability
• Leverage AI-powered tools and automation to accelerate data collection, validation, and normalization improving both speed and accuracy of deliverables
• Establish a sustainable, self-service mechanism (e.g., automated data pipelines, scheduled refreshes, or structured templates) that requires minimal ongoing maintenance after the contract period concludes
• Provide regular progress updates to program managers and leadership, and proactively recommend process improvements or alternative approaches to enhance data quality and operational efficiency

Basic Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Business, Data Science, Computer Science, Statistics, or a related field, or 5+ years of equivalent professional experience
• 3+ years of experience in business intelligence, data analysis, or data engineering

• Experience building automated reporting solutions or data pipelines
• Experience with SQL and at least one data visualization tool (e.g., Tableau, QuickSight, Power BI)

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in aviation, logistics, transportation, or supply chain industries
• Familiarity with airport charges, carrier billing structures, or aviation fee schedules
• Experience with scripting languages such as Python or R for data manipulation and automation
• Experience creating self-sustaining data products or mechanisms designed for handoff to non-technical stakeholders
