Data Analyst

Charleston, United States · hybrid · full-time

About the Company

EEC Irrigation is an irrigation products and services company based in Charleston, South Carolina, serving customers who depend on reliable, well-managed water solutions. The company operates in a hands-on, operations-driven environment where accurate data and timely information directly support day-to-day business decisions. With a dedicated Data Information department, EEC Irrigation is building the analytical infrastructure needed to scale its reporting capabilities and improve data reliability across the organization.

About the Role

This is a mid-level Data Analyst role where your work will have immediate, visible impact — cleaning up the data foundation the team relies on, eliminating manual reporting bottlenecks, and giving stakeholders reliable answers faster. You'll operate with real ownership, partnering cross-functionally to fix problems at the source rather than patching outputs. If you want a role where better data infrastructure you build becomes the reference the whole team depends on, this is it.

Responsibilities

Audit every data source, pipeline, and reporting asset used by the Data Information department within your first 60 days, producing a centralized reference inventory that becomes the team's go-to answer for "where does this data come from?"
Identify the highest-impact data quality issues affecting key business reports, trace them to their upstream origins, and work directly with source-system owners to resolve them — targeting a 30% reduction in error and discrepancy reports raised by stakeholders by month six.
Partner with upstream data owners and source-system teams to implement fixes and validation checks that prevent recurring data issues from resurfacing downstream.
Design and deliver at least two self-service dashboards or automated reports by month four, purpose-built to replace recurring manual data pulls — cutting average report turnaround time from days to minutes for those use cases.
Translate complex data findings into clear, actionable communication for non-technical business stakeholders, ensuring decisions are grounded in data they can trust and understand.
Maintain living documentation of data assets, definitions, and resolution decisions so that institutional knowledge stays with the team, not siloed with individuals.

Apply for this role

What we're looking for

Has completed a formal audit or inventory of data sources and pipelines and produced documentation that a team actively uses as a reference — not a one-time deliverable that sat in a folder.
Has diagnosed data quality issues end-to-end, including tracing problems to upstream sources and collaborating with source-system owners to resolve them, with demonstrated reduction in downstream errors as an outcome.
Has built self-service dashboards or automated reports that replaced recurring manual processes, with measurable improvements in turnaround time or analyst capacity.
Has communicated data analysis, data quality findings, and proposed solutions clearly to business stakeholders without a technical background — adjusting depth and framing to match the audience.
Comfortable working in a hybrid, cross-functional environment where priorities can shift based on stakeholder needs and you'll need to manage multiple workstreams simultaneously.

Benefits

Hybrid work model based in Charleston, SC — flexibility to balance focused individual work with in-person collaboration.
A role with real scope and ownership from day one, not a support function waiting for tickets.
Opportunity to shape the data infrastructure and reporting practices of a growing analytics function at a critical stage.
Collaborative department environment where your documentation, dashboards, and quality improvements will be felt across the business.
Competitive compensation commensurate with demonstrated experience and impact.
