About This Role

As a Senior Business Intelligence Analyst at ChargePoint, you'll transform complex EV charging network data into actionable insights through dashboards and reports that guide strategic decisions. This role directly impacts business growth by enabling data-driven decisions about charging infrastructure deployment, usage patterns, and customer behavior across their global network.
