About the role

We are looking for a Senior Analytics Engineer to join Analytics & Insights, the team that owns Material Bank's analytics data layer, internal reporting, and data products that support our teams and brand partners.

This is a hands-on technical role for someone who wants to own how analytics get built. You will take approved metric definitions and business questions and turn them into the models and metric logic in Snowflake anddbt, the dashboards, and the semantic layer and data products people use every day.

You will own the analytics engineering for key areas of the business: understanding what needs to be measured, building the models,validatingthe logic, delivering the reporting, and keeping itaccurateand reliable over time. You will work across multiple departments and across our data products, including embedded analytics for brands. The work varies day to day, and as a team we contribute to everything.

What werequire

• Ownership, end to end. You own what you build, from the first stakeholder conversation to the model, the dashboard, and the fix when something breaks.
• Precision and attention to detail. You understand the nuance behind a number, verify before you publish, and produce work that leaders and brand partners can trust without checking.
• Appetite forhard work. We are a small, ambitious team with a lot of goals. The work is demanding and the hours vary with what needs to get done. We are upfront about that because it is what the role is.

Whatyou'lldo

• Own the analytics engineering for assigned business domains, translating metric definition through data model, dashboard, and insight.
• Design, build, andmaintaindocumented, production-qualitydbtmodels in Snowflake that turn approved metric definitions into reliable, reusable models and semantic definitions, and power reporting, self-serve, automation, and AI.
• Identifyand resolve technical inconsistencies in metric logic so the business runs on one certified source of truth.
• Build a small set of high-value dashboards in Tableau (and Sigma, as we evolve the stack).
• Contribute to the semantic layer so certified metrics are reusable across BI tools, Snowflake Cortex, and embedded analytics.
• Automate recurring analytics work, with the tests and monitoring that keep it trustworthy.
• Partner with analysts and stakeholders to interpret data, build context, and surface risks before they are asked.
• Contribute to brand-facing data products used by account teams and manufacturer partners.

Whatyou'llbring

• 5+ years in analytics engineering, data analytics, or a similar technical analytics role, owning data models and reporting that a business relies on.
• Expert SQL on large and complex datasets. You write clean, efficient queries and can debug someone else's logic as easily as your own.
• Strong hands-on Snowflake anddbt(or a comparable modern data stack), including dimensionalmodeling, incremental models, testing, and documentation.
• Strong judgment on metric design: grain, denominators, filters, time zones, deduplication, and the ways a correct number can still mislead.
• Commercial sense and curiosity. You want to understand why a number matters, can explain what a change means for the business, and hold a position under questioning.
• An automation mindset. When you see something repetitive or fragile, your instinct is to find a better way to build it.
• Comfort working across several domains at once, prioritizing your own work, and managing stakeholders directly.
• Clear, concise communication and the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical audiences.

Preferred

• Python for automation and data validation
• Marketplace, e-commerce, or B2B SaaS analytics
• Event andbehavioraldata (Segment, GA4, or similar)
• Semantic layers and AI-assisted analytics (Snowflake Cortex,dbtSemantic Layer, or similar)
• Embedded or customer-facing analytics (ClickHouse, Preset, or similar)
• Experimentation and causal methods: A/B testing, cohort analysis, difference-in-differences
• Catalog, product attribute, or search data

What success looks like

In your first 30 days you understand the stack, the models, the people, and the priorities in your domains, and you have your firstdbtchange merged.

By 60 days you are producing real work independently: agreed metric definitions implemented, your first certified models and dashboards in use, and a plan for the first manual workflow you will automate.

By 90 days stakeholders treat you as their analytics partner rather than a request queue. Your models are trusted, your dashboards are used withouthand-holding, and your automation is reducing real manual effort.

This is a senior individual-contributor role with broad ownership and hands-on responsibility. Direct people management is notrequired.
