As the data foundation for this critical group, you will play a pivotal role in ensuring that every decision is backed by clean, reliable, and actionable data.

Role Overview

As a Senior Analytics Engineer, you will bridge the gap between raw operational data and the people who use it to make strategic decisions. You will partner with product managers, engineers, and CX leaders to design, build, and maintain the data models, pipelines, and semantic layer that power dashboards, reports, and self‑serve datasets. Your work will enable the CX team to respond quickly to operational challenges, identify trends, and drive continuous improvement.

Key Responsibilities

• Data Architecture & Modeling – Design and evolve robust, scalable data models that capture the full spectrum of CX operations, from user onboarding to dispute resolution.

• Semantic Layer & Self‑Serve Enablement – Create intuitive semantic layers and data catalogs that empower product and business teams to query data directly, reducing dependency on engineering.
• Dashboard & Report Ownership – Own the end‑to‑end lifecycle of key CX dashboards (e.g., KYC completion rates, withdrawal velocity, dispute resolution time) in tools such as Looker, Tableau, or Power BI.
• Data Quality & Governance – Implement rigorous data quality checks, lineage tracking, and governance policies to ensure data integrity and compliance with regulatory standards.
• Stakeholder Collaboration – Work closely with CX leaders, product managers, and data scientists to translate business questions into data solutions, and to prioritize feature requests.
• Performance Optimization – Continuously monitor and optimize query performance, storage costs, and pipeline throughput to support real‑time decision making.
• Mentorship & Knowledge Sharing – Mentor junior analytics engineers and data analysts, fostering a culture of learning and technical excellence.
• Innovation & Experimentation – Champion new data technologies, frameworks, and best practices that can accelerate insight delivery and improve user experience.

Essential Qualifications

• 10+ years of experience in data engineering, analytics, or a related field, with at least 5 years in a senior or lead role.

• Hands‑on experience with modern ETL/ELT tools (dbt, Airflow, Prefect) and version control (Git).
• Strong SQL skills and familiarity with analytical languages such as Python or R for data manipulation.
• Deep understanding of data modeling concepts (star, snowflake, dimensional modeling) and best practices.
• Experience building and maintaining dashboards in Looker, Tableau, Power BI, or similar BI platforms.
• Solid grasp of data governance, lineage, and quality frameworks.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to translate technical concepts to non‑technical stakeholders.
• Demonstrated ability to work in a fast‑paced, high‑impact environment.
