What you will be doing
- Product Safety: We believe that great products are simple to understand and use. You'll evaluate patterns and accounts in our ecosystem to ensure that our platform maintains a safe environment for all our customers.
- Iterative and skeptical: We practice a dynamic yet data-driven approach to everything we do. We may believe a process or policy is correct today, but with new information quickly change our mind. As a Risk Analyst at Grid, you'll demonstrate sound judgement while questioning existing policies and procedures for improvement.
- Data Analysis: As a data-driven product and culture, we have robust data pipelines and analytics infrastructure. To be successful at Grid, you'll utilize SQL and other analysis tools to evaluate performance and anomalies.

- Autonomy and Initiative: Ability to work independently and take ownership of projects, showcasing a proactive approach to identifying key leverage points for products and experiences.
- Self Starter: Confidence to prioritize work and delivery demonstrable results on a tight cadence.
