About the role
As an Analytics Engineer, you’ll be a key early member of our data function, responsible for building and evolving the analytics foundations that power product decision-making across the company. You’ll work closely with Product, Analytics, and Engineering to turn raw product data into trusted, well-defined datasets, metrics, and data products that scale with the business.
You’ll own the principles behind how we model data for self-serve and AI use cases, balancing speed with data quality and long-term maintainability. This includes designing models and metric foundations that are robust to change, easy to reason about, and suitable for both human and machine consumption.
What you’ll be doing
- Partner with Product, Analytics, and Engineering to understand data needs and translate ambiguous questions into clear, scalable data models
- Define, build, and maintain core dbt models that transform raw product data into canonical, well-documented datasets
- Own metric definitions and transformation logic to ensure consistency, accuracy, and trust across reporting and analysis
- Establish and uphold data quality standards, testing, and expectations around freshness and reliability
- Work closely with Product Analysts to enable faster, higher-quality insights and decision-making
- Support data consumption in tools like Amplitude and Omni, ensuring data is intuitive and easy to self-serve
- Act as a subject-matter expert for analytics engineering, guiding best practices and helping others solve data problems
- Contribute to shaping the future direction of our data stack as product complexity and scale increase

- 🌱 Early, high-impact role with real ownership over the analytics layer

- You write advanced, performant, and maintainable SQL
- You can translate business and product requirements into robust data pipelines and metrics
- You have a strong product mindset and understand how data and metrics influence product direction
