TITLE:Remote Data Entry Clerk jobs in Dania Beach, Florida – Full‑Time Typist & Data Processor Role with $38‑$45kSalary, Entry‑Level Administrative Clerk, 40 hrs/week, Excel & OCR Experience Preferred --- Who we are We’re a mid‑size fintech startup that sprung up three years ago out of a shared‑co‑working space in Dania Beach, Florida. Our mission is simple: turn raw transaction data into crystal‑clear financial insights for small‑business owners across the United States. We’ve grown from a handful of spreadsheet‑wizards to a 45‑person team that now services over 12,000 active merchants, processes $850 million in transactions each quarter, and maintains a 98 % customer‑satisfaction rating.Our headquarters sit in Dania Beach, Florida, but the reality of the product we deliver—cloud‑based dashboards accessed from any browser—means all roles are remote‑first. The exception is that we prefer candidates who can work on Pacific Time, as most of our internal meetings line up with the rhythm of the West Coast. Why this role exists now In the last six months, we added two new data‑feeds from partner banks, which increased our monthly inbound records by roughly 350,000 rows. That surge stretched our existing data‑processing capacity and created bottlenecks in our “clean‑and‑load” pipeline.To keep delivery SLAs (service‑level agreements) under 24 hours for all clients, we need a dedicated data entry clerk who can manage the manual intake, validation, and enrichment of incoming files while our engineers continue to automate the rest of the workflow. In short, you’ll be the bridge between raw data and the analytics engine that powers the dashboards our customers rely on for cash‑flow planning, budgeting, and tax reporting. What you’ll do day‑to‑day - Ingest incoming files – Pull CSV, XLSX, PDF, and scanned image files from secure SFTP drops, email attachments, and partner portals into a staging folder on our shared OneDrive.- Run OCR conversion – Use ABBYY FineReader or Adobe Acrobat’s OCR feature to turn scanned PDFs into searchable text, then verify that the conversion accuracy is above 99 %. - Validate data integrity – Run built‑in Excel macros and Google Sheets scripts to flag duplicate IDs, out‑of‑range dates, and mismatched currency symbols. When a rule fires, you’ll correct the record or flag it for the compliance team. - Enter data into the master system – Populate Salesforce, HubSpot, and QuickBooks Online with the cleaned records, ensuring the correct field mapping for each partner feed.- Perform quality checks – Conduct spot‑checks on at least 200 rows per shift, measuring error rates. Our target is 99.8 % accuracy; anything lower triggers a short “re‑run” cycle. - Document exceptions – Log any anomalies in a Trello board, categorize them by type (e.g., “missing invoice number”, “invalid tax ID”), and assign to the appropriate specialist. - Maintain SOPs – Keep the Standard Operating Procedure wiki (Confluence) up‑to‑date, noting any new data‑source quirks or tool updates. - Support the team – When the volume spikes (e.g., end‑of‑month reporting periods), you’ll partner with the senior data processor to prioritize high‑value clients and meet the 24‑hour turnaround SLA.Who you’ll work with - Data Operations Lead (Maria Torres) – “When I first started, I thought ‘data entry’ was just typing, but seeing how each record fuels our client reports was a real eye‑opener,” she says, and she’ll be your go‑to for workflow questions. -Senior Data Processor (Luis Ramirez) – Handles the complex transformations using Python scripts; you’ll hand off cleaned data to him for bulk loading. - Compliance Analyst (Jenna Lee) – Reviews flagged records for regulatory concerns; your accurate tagging makes her job smoother.- Product Support Team – Occasionally you’ll receive inbound tickets from users who notice a mismatch; you’ll investigate and correct as needed. All of these teammates are based in Dania Beach, Florida, but we collaborate via Slack, Zoom, and Asana, so you’ll be part of the conversation even from your home office.

Those tiny wins are why we keep the data entry line running – you’re the silent guardian of accuracy.”Career path & growth We treat theRemote Data Entry Clerk role as a launchpad into the broader data‑operations ecosystem.After six months of meeting or exceeding the 99.8 % accuracy target, you become eligible for the Data Processing Specialist track, where you’ll start training on basic Python scripts and data‑pipeline monitoring.
