The Impact:
At S&P Dow Jones Indices, EUC automation is a transformative initiative aimed at systemizing our offline processes, collectively referred to as End User Computing (EUC). These processes include various tools such as Excel spreadsheets, Python code, and SQL scripts, which are currently managed across fragmented systems. This fragmentation poses significant risks to the accuracy and efficiency of our operations. The Data Automation Specialist will play a pivotal role in this initiative by overseeing the migration of these models into strategic applications like I6, thereby enhancing operational integrity and streamlining processes.

This position will foster strong partnerships across departments, ensuring seamless integration and alignment of automation efforts. Additionally, you will coordinate with various stakeholders to drive effective communication and collaboration throughout the automation process. By establishing best practices and standards for Python usage in accordance with our EUC Policy, you will prioritize our group's scripts for contributions on I6 and other future platforms, ultimately contributing to a more efficient and reliable data ecosystem within the organization.
What is in it for you?

• Become a key member of a dynamic team that is pivotal to the EUC Debt Reduction initiative - one of our organization's top priorities essential for driving growth.

• Collaborate with a diverse range of teams and stakeholders to develop innovative automation solutions that significantly boost operational efficiency across the organization.

• Contribute to establishing best practices in Python automation and data enablement, ensuring that your efforts lead to lasting improvements in our processes.

• Engage in projects that drive contributions to the dynamic areas of our Enterprise Working Groups, such as Private Markets, Wealth Model Portfolios, and the transformative fields of Crypto, DeFi, and Tokenization.
Responsibilities:

• Product Management: Oversee the end-to-end process of designing, testing, and refining automation solutions.

• Coordination and Communication: Serve as the point of contact for coordination with key stakeholders to ensure alignment on automation standards and priorities.

• Project Management: Manage sprints and project timelines in accordance with Agile principles, ensuring timely delivery of automation initiatives.

• User Acceptance Testing (UAT): Facilitate UAT processes to validate automation solutions and ensure they meet business requirements.

• Business Analysis: Gather and analyze requirements from stakeholders to inform automation projects and solutions.

• Documentation: Maintain clear documentation of automation processes, standards, and project progress to ensure transparency and knowledge sharing.
What we are looking for:

• 3-5 years of experience as a business analyst, modeler or product owner in a data-centric environment.

• Fundamental understanding of equity and fixed income markets.

• Proven experience working within an Agile framework, including sprint management and collaboration with cross-functional teams.

• Proficiency in Python programming, including experience in developing automation scripts and implementing best practices.

• Strong capabilities in business analysis, requirement gathering, and effective stakeholder communication.

• Familiarity with User Acceptance Testing (UAT) processes is a plus.
