Streaming Data & Operations Analyst

Description
For candidates based in Mexico!
As a Streaming Data & Operations Analyst, you will take ownership of technical and data-related issues affecting Simply.

TV’s streaming services — from initial investigation through resolution.
This is an analytical and technically hands-on role for someone with a strong academic background in Computer Science, Data, or a closely related field, solid Python skills, and the ability to use AI tools and effective prompting as part of their problem-solving workflow.
You will investigate why streaming catalogs, feeds, or data processes are not working as expected, identify root causes, resolve issues where possible, and escalate more complex problems with a clear technical diagnosis.
You will work closely with Streaming, Development, Operations, and other technical teams while also communicating directly with clients when needed. This means you should be equally comfortable diving into data and technical problems as you are explaining your findings clearly to others.
This is not a traditional support role. We are looking for someone who is analytical, curious, technically confident, and able to take ownership of problems rather than simply follow established runbooks.

Responsibilities
Take ownership of streaming data issues from initial investigation through resolution.
Investigate incorrect catalogs, feeds, data anomalies, failed processes, and other streaming-related issues.
Identify root causes by analysing data, system behaviour, logs, feeds, and technical workflows.
Use Python to investigate, validate, manipulate, or troubleshoot data and technical processes.
Resolve issues independently where possible or escalate them to Development or other technical teams with a clear diagnosis and supporting information.
Work with structured data, APIs, logs, feeds, internal systems, and other technical sources.
Use AI tools and effective prompting to support analysis, investigation, troubleshooting, and productivity.
Communicate technical findings clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Communicate directly with clients regarding streaming-data issues, investigations, and resolutions.
Collaborate with Development, Operations, and Streaming teams to improve workflows and prevent recurring issues.
Manage multiple investigations and priorities while meeting deadlines and SLA requirements.
Document findings, solutions, and recurring problems to improve team knowledge and processes.
Continuously develop your understanding of Simply.

TV’s streaming products, data architecture, and technical workflows.
