About the role

  • Designing, building, and maintaining robust ELT workflows that consolidate data from all internal and external systems into our warehouse
  • Integrating with third-party platforms—Iterable, mParticle, partner APIs, and more—to ensure every metric is consistently captured
  • Architecting and optimizing our BigQuery environment for performance, cost-efficiency, and scalability
  • Modeling data and authoring Looker (Looker Studio, Tableau, etc.) dashboards that give every team self-serve access to reliable insights
  • Implementing automated tests and monitoring to catch data issues early and maintain trust in our metrics
  • Writing clear documentation and hosting regular “office hours” to empower non-technical teammates to explore data confidently
  • Collaborating with BI analysts to establish standards, conduct code reviews, and foster company-wide data ownership
  • Owning and maintaining ELT pipelines using Apache Airflow, custom scripting, and BigQuery
  • Contributing to data governance, access controls, and system scalability as our platform grows

Requirements

  • A hands-on data engineer who loves turning ambiguity into clarity and takes pride in seeing teams succeed with the metrics you build
  • Deep experience designing and maintaining ELT pipelines in a cloud warehouse (BigQuery, Snowflake, or Redshift) using orchestrators like Airflow or Prefect
  • SQL mastery—you can write, optimize, and troubleshoot complex queries without hesitation
  • Proven track record with dbt (or an equivalent) for modular, testable transformations and a CI/CD mindset for data workflows
  • Comfort modeling data and building self-serve dashboards in Looker, Tableau, or Power BI that non-technical teammates lean on daily
  • A relentless focus on data quality—automated tests, monitoring, and clear documentation are second nature to you
  • Excellent communicator who can translate technical details into actionable insights for Marketing, Product, Finance, and leadership
  • A builder’s mentality: you see gaps in our analytics stack and jump in to solve them rather than waiting for direction
Benefits

  • 401k with matching and sharing
  • Top-tier health insurance and family benefits
  • Flexible paid vacation
  • Paid parental leave
