About the role
- This is a role for a technical, broad engineer who specializes in analytics.
- You will define the canonical tables, columns, and metrics behind our customer-facing reports, move production logic into governed dbt, and harden pipelines.
- Your work is the base that our API and MCP-based analytics expose, so correctness is non-negotiable.
Responsibilities
- Design and own the Insights semantic layer, establishing canonical definitions for the tables, columns, and metrics behind each report so the numbers we ship are trusted and consistent across the business.
- Standardize how we define core metrics, reconcile them across data sources such as Amplitude, and clearly document any variances.
- Contribute to the design of a Kimball-style dimensional warehouse built to serve both traditional BI and emerging LLM and MCP-based analytics.
- Help drive the migration of BI reporting onto the semantic layer, from report inventory and classification through cutover planning.
- A skilled dimensional modeler (Kimball, slowly changing dimensions) who designs data models built to last as the business evolves.
- Analytically fluent, with a strong sense for data quality and the judgment to validate that results are correct, not just computed.
- A collaborative partner who thrives working across teams, coordinating with Infrastructure and App Platform teams to deliver shared outcomes.
Requirements
- 4+ years in a modern data stack, with advanced SQL and deep hands-on dbt expertise across modeling, testing, and project structure.
- Deep experience with BigQuery and cloud data warehousing, including cost and performance optimization.
- Experience feeding LLM or AI-native data interfaces (semantic layer, MCP, text-to-SQL guardrails).
Compensation
- Competitive compensation packages with meaningful ownership
Benefits
- Migrate production report logic into governed, tested, and portable dbt models, strengthening test coverage and reusable macros along the way.
