The Role

You will join the Recon and Reporting team, which owns our post-transaction systems: the platform responsible for reconciling money, tracing the end-to-end flow of funds, and meeting our tax and regulatory reporting obligations to merchants, customers, and authorities worldwide. Reconciliation and financial reporting are essential to running a payments business, and given our transaction volume, this role has direct, measurable impact on financial accuracy and trust.

As a Senior Analyst on the team, you will independently own reconciliation and reporting workstreams end to end. You will be the subject matter expert who ensures the numbers tie out: reconciling card-network settlement and report files (Visa, Mastercard, and equivalents), along with data from acquirers, processors, and banks, against our internal payment and ledger data. You will translate ambiguous reconciliation and reporting needs into concrete metrics, controls, and automated solutions, drive discrepancies to root cause and resolution, and directly influence the team's roadmap and the priorities of our finance, accounting, and engineering partners. Our mantra: all funds in the right place, at the right time, for the right purpose.

You Will

• Independently prioritize, design, develop, and deploy end-to-end reconciliation and reporting solutions: matching logic, break dashboards, exception queues, settlement summaries, and standardized journals that feed downstream accounting, audit, and regulatory processes.

•

Own time-sensitive daily, weekly, and monthly reconciliations across card networks, banking partners, processors, and internal transaction and ledger data, including full ownership of discrepancy management from detection through root cause, corrective action, and control improvement.

• Translate ambiguous business, finance, and regulatory needs into concrete measurement systems: define and roll out key metrics for the reconciliation and reporting domain (match rates, break aging, time-to-resolution, funding compliance, reporting SLAs) and ensure stakeholders interpret them in the correct context.

• Serve as the subject matter expert on settlement, funding, and money-movement flows; field questions on transaction lifecycles, data models, and the reconciliation tech stack from stakeholders and leadership.

• Own the design, development, and documentation of automated SQL-based reporting using best practices, navigating new and unfamiliar datasets to answer complex questions about the flow of funds.

• Work independently or partner with data engineering to design, build, validate, troubleshoot, and maintain the datasets and pipelines that power reconciliation and reporting, making sound trade-offs between accuracy, implementation effort, and complexity.

• Proactively identify control gaps, revenue leakage, manual toil, and upstream data-quality issues; drive the automation and process improvements that fix them, and monitor daily settlement and banking activity for irregularities.

• Own relationships with technical and
