E-Commerce Sales Analyst

Most days mix data analysis, dashboard work, and stakeholder partnership — pulling and analyzing e-commerce data (traffic, conversion, AOV, retention), building reports and dashboards, supporting merchandising and marketing decisions, partnering with platform and product teams, and contributing to insights work. You're often working at retailers (DTC, omnichannel, marketplace), brands selling direct, or specialty e-commerce operations, and the platform and product mix shape daily work.

What tends to be harder than people expect is the breadth of analytical and stakeholder work required. E-commerce metrics span marketing, merchandising, operations, and product, and prioritization across stakeholders can be political. Tools (Google Analytics, specialty e-commerce platforms, SQL, Tableau, Looker) and specialty depth shape career growth.

People who tend to thrive here are comfortable with data, organized about analysis, fluent in business and digital commerce both, and patient with cross-functional work. If you want pure data science, that lives in different paths. If you like the analytical work behind how e-commerce operations actually perform, the role offers durable demand and a clear path toward senior analyst, e-commerce ops, or specialty commerce leadership.
