This is a hands-on, senior IC role with significant technical ownership and cross-functional influence.
You’ll enjoy this role if you are…

- Designing and implementing production-grade transformations using SQL + dbt, with strong performance, testing, and documentation standards
- Building and maintaining a semantic layer / metrics framework so teams measure the business consistently and reliably
- Improving data reliability: SLAs, freshness/quality monitoring, alerting, and incident response for critical tables and metrics
- Partnering with Data Engineering on upstream improvements (event logging, source-of-truth definitions, ingestion patterns, and new data sources)
- Enabling self-serve analytics by improving tooling, access patterns, and governance
- Leading projects end-to-end, including writing design docs, driving alignment, and mentoring peers through reviews and pairing
You’ll be successful in this role if you have…
