Senior Data Analyst - Reconciliation

Mercury is building a complete finance stack for startups. We work hard to create the easiest and safest banking* experience possible to simplify entrepreneurs' and business owners' financial lives.

Underneath Mercury’s products is a network of banking partners, internal systems, payment rails, and funds flows that enable a powerful, streamlined customer experience. The Financial Data Reconciliation team enables the Mercury system by ensuring end-to-end tracking of transactions across partner banks and internal systems, protecting customer funds through timely, rigorous, and efficient reconciliation. The team owns the full reconciliation lifecycle — from building the data pipelines that transform and enrich transaction data, to matching and investigating exceptions, to reporting on reconciliation health across the business.

• Own the design and implementation of end-to-end reconciliations for new and existing products and funds flows, setting standards that other analysts can build against

• Develop and maintain data transformations, enrichment logic, and matching rules that support accurate and scalable reconciliation across internal and external systems

• Monitor and investigate reconciliation exceptions, leading root-cause analysis and coordinating with Product, Engineering, Finance, and banking partners to resolve complex breaks and implement durable fixes

• Build monitoring, alerting, and reporting that surface reconciliation risks, trends, and improvement opportunities across the team’s portfolio

• Define reconciliation requirements and technical specifications for new products and funds flows, partnering with Product, Engineering, Data, and Finance early in the design process

• Partner with Accounting to support month-end close and audit readiness by preparing timely reconciliation analyses, summaries, and supporting documentation

• Shape and execute the reconciliation control roadmap, leading cross-functional initiatives and representing the Reconciliation team’s perspective as product coverage and operational complexity grow
