The Evolving Role of the Data Analyst, with guest Hex's Rachel Herrera

The Powered by Data Show, Episode 003In this episode of The Powered by Data Show, Ben Jones sits down with Rachel Herrera of Hex to explore how AI is changing the day-to-day work of data analysts, and why that shift may be better news than many people think. Instead of spending all their time writing repetitive SQL, cleaning messy data, and rebuilding the same dashboards, analysts now have an opportunity to become curators of context, stewards of trust, and stronger storytellers for the business. Ben and Rachel discuss Hex’s vision for AI-first analytics, including Context Studio, Hex's new feature that empowers data teams to manage and continuously improve agent performance over time. They also dig into what analysts should be learning right now to stay relevant: business understanding, discovery skills, judgment, and the ability to communicate clearly with humans. If you’ve been worried about what the future of the data analyst's role, this conversation might just give you some hope!
