Responsibilities

→Own data pipelines end to end - ingestion, transformation (dbt), warehousing (BigQuery), and delivery into reporting and BI (Omni)
→Audit and map the existing data systems before rebuilding, then consolidate the stack toward a single source of truth
→Build and maintain dbt models and transformation logic with tests, documentation, and clear contracts
→Establish data quality, observability, and reliability practices so pipelines are maintained intentionally rather than reactively
→Own product analytics: instrumentation and event tracking, data models for usage and adoption, and the metrics GTM and product teams rely on
→Partner with GTM operations to consolidate reporting into a single tool and ensure we have the right data foundations for AI automation and tools.
→Support research for external reports (e.g. the Engineering in the Age of AI benchmark report), partnering with marketing to source, validate, and pull the right data
→Lay the groundwork for high-volume and streaming ingestion (e.g. telemetry / OpenTelemetry) as the product moves that way
