The data analyst is a versatile role employing a mixture of data engineer and data scientist skillsets. The interested analyst can specialise in data engineering or data science.

The staff will be part of a team that is:

- Business-focused - highest priority is given to considering the business problem and ensuring the technical work is solving real-world problems.
- Code-first - highest technical rigor in code is demanded, expectations are clearly defined and to be met.
- Multi-disciplinary - team members are to be considerate of how staff from other professions contribute to the overall outcome, and collaborate accordingly.
- Open - code, communication, documentations, peer-review are open-by-default, including early drafts of work.

**Essential Criteria**
- Data analysis - ability to derive business intelligence through SQL, Power BI or Python exploration of curated business data, and communicate these persuasively through Power BI reports. The analyst aspires to be the multidisciplinary team's forerunner to delivering value by formulating and answering business questions as realistic data problems. They do this by proactively understanding the business process, the lineage and quality of the data capture, and the strategic intent of the business. Ability to extract and query data using SQL is essential. (Response Weighting 34%)
- Team player - ability to work independently with limited guidance to create self-direction in uncertain and rapidly changing environments, displaying the characteristics of creativity and resilience. Ability to work openly and collegiately in a multi-disciplinary team, displaying a genuine consideration of how members from other disciplines contribute to the overall outcome. They have a strong focus on people and business outcomes over formal methodologies. (Response Weighting 33%)

**Desirable Criteria**
- Data engineering - ability to create high business value, robust and efficient SQL pipelines to curate data from complex and high-volume sources. The goal of data engineering is to create useful and trustworthy data representations of real-world business processes. The engineer aspires to be the pillar of the multidisciplinary team by providing a constant access to the data needed to solve the next problem. They appropriately question requirements and take responsibility for checking outputs against independent testing. Ability to tackle complex SQL problems is paramount.
- Reference data - ability to integrate disparate data assets through judicious use of reference data. By using a common standard as a translation of data from disparate systems, decision makers or analysts obtain a seamless view of multiple systems. The data engineer achieves this by designing golden reference tables, maintaining mapping tables between individual systems to the common reference, and create automated monitoring for outdated references.
- Familiarity with the Australia's biosecurity systems. Familiarity with the imported cargo pathway will be highly regarded.
- Familiarity with the Australia's exports systems.
