The Role
As a BI Engineer on the 3PR (Third Party Response) team, you'll play a critical role in delivering accurate, high-quality data solutions for external reporting. Block's business operates in a highly regulated environment, generating a continuous stream of data requests from regulators, banking partners, and legal entities.
In this role, you'll collaborate closely with legal, compliance, engineering, and data teams across the company to build trusted reporting pipelines and tools. You'll be responsible for the end-to-end development of data solutions - from scoping complex external data requirements to building resilient data models and scalable dashboards that meet evolving regulatory standards.
Success in this role requires strong technical expertise, an eye for detail, and the ability to operate independently in a fast-paced environment where priorities shift quickly. Your work will directly support Block's regulatory obligations and build transparency and trust with external partners.

• Engage with a wide range of internal partners to deeply understand their data needs and deliver tailored, effective solutions.
• Contribute to multiple high-impact regulatory workstreams by clearly communicating complex data concepts across both technical and non-technical audiences.

You Have

• Experience with financial data is preferred.
• 3+ years of industry experience building complex, scalable ETLs for a variety of different business and product use cases
• A strategic mindset that drives technical excellence while building consensus with multiple stakeholders and partners
