Overview

Instacart is hiring a Data Analyst to support the Legal Risk & Compliance function through high‑quality data analysis, dashboard development, reporting, and workflow tooling support. You will work across compliance-related datasets and systems to improve visibility, efficiency, and accuracy of Legal Compliance operations.

This role emphasizes data analysis, dashboarding, metrics development, and operational support rather than compliance program ownership or strategy.

This role sits within the Risk & Compliance team and acts as a data and tooling enabler for Legal. You’ll transform operational and compliance data into insights, dashboards, and workflows that increase visibility and support informed decision‑making. Although you won’t have direct reports, you will support complex programs and partner with senior stakeholders across the organization.
