Job Description:

The Senior Data & Analytics Engineer is a hybrid builder role focused on enabling business domains onto the Databricks platform by developing governed Silver and Gold assets, reusable semantic patterns, and domain-ready analytical models. This role sits between pure data engineering and pure analytics engineering: it requires enough technical depth to work comfortably with transformations and lakehouse patterns, and enough business fluency to build trustworthy models that business stakeholders can use and extend.

Show full description

Initial focus for this role is expected to be G&A and GTM-oriented domains such as Accounting, Program Finance, RevOps, Marketing, HR, and adjacent business functions, while remaining flexible enough to support more complex future domains such as Product or Engineering as the team matures. This role is not a dashboard factory; it is responsible for durable, governed datasets and semantic assets that accelerate domain self-service while maintaining enterprise consistency.

What you'll do:

  • Build and maintain Silver and Gold data models, domain marts, curated datasets, and semantic assets for priority domains onboarding to Databricks.
  • Partner directly with business stakeholders to translate domain requirements and KPI definitions into governed, testable, and reusable transformation logic.
  • Apply enterprise modeling standards, naming conventions, semantic definitions, and promotion rules, contributing practical improvements back into those standards.
  • Create reusable domain patterns and analytical building blocks that allow teams such as FP&A, RevOps, and Marketing to operate more self-service over time.
  • Support the design of semantic views and curated layers that can be consumed by BI tools, Databricks SQL, and Genie or related AI/BI experiences.
  • Work across domain boundaries when metrics overlap or interact, especially where G&A, GTM, workforce, and product-adjacent concepts intersect.
  • Ensure data sensitivity, classification, and approved use are reflected in modeling choices, joins, and semantic exposure, particularly for regulated or restricted datasets.
  • Review and refine partner-delivered or domain-contributed data models to ensure they are production-worthy, understandable, and aligned with enterprise definitions.
  • Help domain teams grow into more self-service analytics by providing patterns, documentation, examples, and technical guidance rather than permanently centralizing every request.

Required qualifications:

  • 5+ years of experience in analytics engineering, BI engineering, data engineering, or a hybrid role spanning modeling and transformation work.
  • Strong dimensional modeling and semantic design skills, including facts, dimensions, grain, conformed dimensions, and business-friendly analytical structures.
  • Strong SQL skills and comfort working with modern cloud data platforms such as Databricks.
  • Ability to translate ambiguous business requirements into precise, auditable, and reusable data models.
  • Enough data engineering fluency to work comfortably in Silver-to-Gold transformations, testing, performance tuning, and production deployment contexts.
  • Ability to understand the business meaning and usage constraints of the data being modeled, not just the technical transformations involved.
  • Strong communication skills and comfort working directly with business stakeholders in domains with evolving definitions and priorities.

Preferred qualifications:

  • Experience in finance, program finance, RevOps, marketing analytics, HR analytics, product analytics, or another cross-functional business domain.
  • Experience building modular, tested transformation pipelines on Databricks (SQL/pyspark, Delta Live Tables, or equivalent).
  • Experience with semantic layer tooling, governed metrics, or AI/BI consumption layers.
  • Experience in regulated or security-sensitive industries.
  • Ability and interest to expand from initial G&A/GTM domain focus into more technical domains such as Product or Engineering over time.
