Senior Data Analyst, Rides Finance

About the role

As a Senior Data Analyst in the Rides Finance analytics team, you’ll build the foundations that enable smarter decision-making across Bolt’s global ride-hailing operations. Your daily work will include building data products and internal apps to unlock new insights, creating and improving financial planning models, and automating manual processes to drive efficiency. One week you might be building a global financial model or analysing competitors’ performance; the next, automating global reporting tooling.

This role requires technical proficiency and a solid understanding of the business, with a strong emphasis on stakeholder management and communication. Your business intuition, combined with analytical, problem-solving and interpersonal skills, will be key to success in this role.

Main tasks and responsibilities

• Design and build internal tools, apps, dashboards, data pipelines and automations that make data actionable and improve process efficiency, using SQL, Python, Google Apps Script, BI tools (e.g. Looker), workflow orchestration (e.g. n8n, Airflow) and AI coding assistants (e.g. Claude, Codex)
• Make sound technical design choices for your solutions (data flows, storage, integrations/APIs, hosting and access control), and write clean, version-controlled, tested and well-documented code, ensuring consistent data quality
• Develop financial and operational models to support global growth and efficiency, grounded in a clear understanding of how marketplace dynamics (supply and demand, pricing, incentives, competition) drive financial performance
• Own your analytics project pipeline end to end: prioritise work against team and business goals with stakeholders, define the expected impact upfront, deliver high-quality results at pace, and measure adoption and impact against it
• Partner with cross-functional teams (Finance, Operations, Analytics Engineering) to define the right problem, challenge requirements where needed, and translate them into data solutions

• You’ve built analytical tools, dashboards or internal apps that were adopted at scale, owning the full lifecycle: requirements, delivery, adoption, impact measurement and decommissioning
• You understand marketplace dynamics—including demand, supply, pricing, and competition—and how they shape financial performance, and apply that understanding in your work to drive business outcomes.
• Proficient in SQL and Python, with hands-on experience in ETL, data modelling (e.g. dbt: layered models, testing, documentation) and BI tools (e.g. Looker, Tableau, Power BI)
• Comfortable with software architecture fundamentals (front end, back end, databases, APIs), Git, code reviews and deploying internal apps, with hands-on experience automating work using Google Apps Script, workflow tools (e.g. n8n, Airflow) and AI coding assistants, and sound judgment on validating AI-generated outputs
• You think like an owner: you prioritise ruthlessly, communicate clearly, and manage your own projects

• Accelerate your professional growth with unique career opportunities.
• Enjoy a rewarding salary and stock options, knowing that as Bolt succeeds, so do you.
• Take care of your physical and mental health with our wellness perks.
• Celebrate 5 years at Bolt with a 1-month paid sabbatical to recharge.
• Connect with colleagues at annual company events and smaller team gatherings.
• Balance flexibility and in-person collaboration with our hybrid model, including at least 12 monthly in-office days.
