Analytics is moving beyond dashboards. We’re building intelligent systems that let analysts and business users explore data, automate analysis, design scalable architectures, and get insights faster and we need a senior engineer to build the data foundations and AI-powered tools that make that possible. 
 
This is a hands-on builder role at the intersection of analytics engineering and applied AI. You'll own the pipelines, datasets, and metrics that the business runs on, and you'll build the LLM-powered applications, copilots, agents, natural-language data experiences that sit on top of them. You'll work directly with product, growth, and business teams on real B2C and customer data. 

• →Analytics Engineering & Business Analytics
  • →Build and own scalable data pipelines, transformations, analytical datasets, and reusable data products using SQL and Python.
  • →Analyze B2C, product, and customer data to identify trends, performance drivers, and actionable insights.
  • →Translate business and product questions into reliable metrics and decision-support solutions that help teams measure performance and understand customer behavior.
• →AI-Powered Analytics
  • →Design, build, and deploy LLM-powered applications, agents, and analytics workflows using RAG, tool calling, MCP, and modern agent frameworks.
  • →Develop reusable AI tools that enable analysts and business users to interact with data, automate analysis, and generate insights.
  • →Evaluate, monitor, and continuously improve AI solutions in production, focusing on accuracy, reliability, cost, and safety.
• →Systems Integration & Production
  • →Integrate data platforms, analytics systems, APIs, and AI components into reliable, secure, and maintainable services.
  • →Contribute to the architecture and design of scalable data and AI systems in collaboration with platform and engineering teams.

• A governed metrics layer — reliable, reusable definitions for retention, conversion, LTV and other core B2C metrics, built on BigQuery / Fabric with governed definitions in OpenMetadata, that every team and every AI tool draws from. 
• An analytics copilot — a natural-language interface that lets product managers and business users ask questions of the data and get trustworthy, sourced answers. 
• Automated analysis workflows — agents that handle recurring analyses (weekly performance reviews, anomaly triage, funnel diagnostics) and surface what matters. 
• Reusable AI tooling — skills, knowledge sources, documentation, MCP servers, and ready-to-use scripts that AI tools can call for data extraction, analysis, and visualization, so building the next AI feature is fast and safe. 

• Relevant Experience: 6+ years of hands-on experience in analytics engineering, data engineering, product/business analytics, applied AI, or a related technical role.
• SQL & Python: Strong proficiency in SQL and Python, with experience building and maintaining production-grade data pipelines and analytical datasets beyond exploratory notebooks.
• Solution Architecture: Experience designing scalable, end-to-end architectures integrating data platforms, services, APIs, AI components, and user workflows.
• Business & Product Analytics: Experience with B2C, product, or customer analytics, including defining and applying metrics such as retention, funnels, cohorts, conversion, and customer lifetime value (LTV) to influence business decisions.
• Production AI Experience: Demonstrated experience personally building and deploying at least one LLM-powered application used by real users, leveraging RAG, tool/function calling, or agents.
• Agent Frameworks: Hands-on experience with at least one orchestration or agent framework, such as LangGraph, LangChain, Semantic Kernel, CrewAI, AutoGen, OpenAI Agents SDK, or similar.
• Communication: Ability to explain technical designs and complex concepts clearly to non-technical stakeholders.

• Experience with AI evaluation, monitoring, guardrails, or Responsible AI practices in production. 
• Built conversational analytics, an analytics copilot, or text-to-SQL / natural-language data experiences. 
• Worked with semantic layers, governed metrics, or enterprise metric definitions. 
• Google BigQuery, Google Analytics, OpenMetadata, Microsoft Fabric, Power BI, Databricks, Snowflake, Azure AI Foundry, Azure OpenAI, or Claude. 
• Vector databases, semantic search, or MCP server development. 
• Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD, or observability tooling.
