Job description
About the Role
As a Staff Analytics Engineer, the role is responsible for data pipeline, data strategy, and data visualisation-related efforts for the Commerce & Growth Analytics team at WBD. The position involves managing projects from requirements gathering to planning to implementation of full-stack data solutions, from pipelines to data tables to visualisations. The role works closely with cross-functional partners to ensure that business logic is properly represented in the semantic layer and production environments.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and implement data models that support flexible querying and data visualization.
- Partner with Commerce and Growth stakeholders to understand business questions and build out advanced analytical solutions.
- Advance automation efforts that help the team spend less time manipulating and validating data and more time analysing.
- Build frameworks that multiply the productivity of the team and are intuitive for other data teams to leverage.
- Create systematic solutions for solving data anomalies: identifying, alerting, and root cause analysis.
- Work proactively with stakeholders to ready data solutions for new product and/or feature releases, with a keen eye for uncovering and troubleshooting any data quality issues or nuances.
- Identify and explore new opportunities through creative analytical and engineering methods.
- Create new or optimise existing analytics development standards and best practices.
- Mentor and provide guidance to junior data analytics engineers on the team.
Required Experience & Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree, MS, or greater in a quantitative field of study (Computer/Data Science, Engineering, Mathematics, Statistics, etc.).
- 9+ years of relevant experience in business intelligence / data engineering.
- Expertise in writing SQL (clean, fast code is a must) and in data-warehousing concepts such as star schemas, slowly changing dimensions, and ELT/ETL.
- Experience in transforming flawed/changing data into consistent, trustworthy datasets, and in developing DAGs to batch-process millions of records.
- Experience with general-purpose programming (e.g. Python, Java, Go), dealing with a variety of data structures, algorithms, and serialization formats.
- Experience with big-data technologies (e.g. Spark, Kafka, Hive).
- Advanced ability to build reports and dashboards with BI tools (such as Looker and Tableau).
- Proficiency with Git (or similar version control) and CI/CD best practices.
- Experience managing workflows using Agile practices.
- Expertise in writing clear, concise documentation and communicating with a high degree of precision.
- Ability to solve ambiguous problems independently and to manage multiple projects and time constraints simultaneously.
- Care for the quality of the input data and how the processed data is ultimately interpreted and used.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, and strong organizational skills with the ability to act independently and responsibly.
- Self-starter, comfortable initiating projects from design to execution with minimal supervision, and able to balance multiple (and sometimes competing) priorities in a fast-paced, complex business environment while consistently meeting deadlines.
- Team player and relationship builder.
Preferred Skills
- Experience with OLAP databases such as Snowflake or Redshift.
- Experience with dbt or similar transformation and semantic-layer frameworks.
- Experience with digital products, streaming services, or subscription products.
- Experience with cloud data platforms such as Databricks.
