Do you have what it takes?

Formal training in software development, product management, agile, or digital analytics and at least 2-3 years’ experience in a similar role:

• Deep, hands-on mastery of SQL, and ideally one of Python and/or R – This role is a technical profile and requires someone with a deep passion for analyzing large structured and unstructured data sets.

• Hands on experience with the set up and maintenance of bronze, silver, and gold layers in a big data platform, ideally Databricks and Apache Spark. And experience building and maintaining DBT models.

• A desire and passion for transforming raw data into structured tables which can answer common business questions.

• Proven experience working with behavioral data across web & app platforms.

• Comfort with ambiguity, and a natural preference for an environment where you play an active role in defining the solution to complex and undefined problems – We’re looking for a lynchpin who isn’t afraid to get things done even when they don’t have formal authority over everyone who needs to be involved to make it work, and is able to build collaborative working relationships across organizational boundaries.

• Build trusted working relationships with both technical and non-technical colleagues and partners, and a demonstrated ability to simplify complex topics to those less familiar with data infrastructure.
