South African Rand . ZAR 300,000 - 400,000

Job Description

Turn chaos into trusted data at high volume and high speed

BoamAI builds managed data agents that transform messy, unstructured signals from public, private, and proprietary sources into structured, reliable, and always up-to-date intelligence on millions of SMBs and enterprises worldwide. These agentic systems power CRMs, data warehouses, AI products, and mission-critical decisions across the enterprise with strategic partners such as Uber Eats and Toast.

As a Data Analyst, you will help build, improve, and operate the data pipeline that keeps Boam's truth layer fresh at scale. This is not a dashboard role. You'll tackle messy inputs across verticals and geographies, automate quality and throughput, and keep pace with fast-growing customer demand. You'll work across ingestion, validation, transformation, and analysis, partnering closely with ops, engineering, and data/ML. This is a role for someone who wants real ownership early, loves precision, and learns fast in an environment with minimal safety nets.

What You'll Do

Own pipeline quality and freshness across core datasets

Scale ingestion and validation across new geos and verticals

Build automation that replaces manual checks and rework

Monitor pipeline health and drive fast root-cause fixes

Build SQL outputs that power production customer workflows

Produce clear analysis that drives product and customer decisions

Support ingestion and transforms with pragmatic Python tooling

Turn investigations into shipped improvements customers feel

Use next-gen AI tools to improve speed, rigor, and reliability

You Might Be a Fit If

1-3+ years in data analysis, analytics engineering, or similar roles

Strong SQL and comfort working with messy, real-world datasets

Working knowledge of Python for analysis and automation

Own problems end-to-end and close loops without hand-holding

Debug systematically and write crisp, structured investigations
