🛠️ Responsibilities

• Build and maintain self-service, easy-to-use data models and tables in our BI tool (e.g., Metabase, Looker, etc.) so non-technical teams can explore data independently.

  • Product usage and event data

  • Marketing systems (e.g., HubSpot, paid media, web analytics)

  • Invoicing and billing platforms (e.g., Stripe)

  • Revenue and subscription management systems

• Own and evolve the semantic layer: define clear metrics and business definitions (e.g., MRR, churn, LTV) that teams trust.

• Partner closely with stakeholders to understand reporting needs—especially around product engagement, customer retention, and financial metrics—and translate them into sustainable data models.

• Improve data quality, accuracy, and freshness, including building monitoring and alerting for pipeline issues.

• Automate recurring dashboards and reports, eliminating manual exports and spreadsheets.

• Contribute to data governance: documentation, versioning, and access controls.

• Advocate for data literacy by coaching teams on how to use BI tools effectively.

• Strong experience with SQL and designing data models for analytics, financial metrics, and SaaS KPIs.

• Proficiency with ETL/ELT tools and orchestration frameworks (e.g., dbt, Airflow, Fivetran, Stitch, etc.).

• Hands-on experience with modern cloud data warehouses (Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, etc.).

• Experience integrating data from SaaS tools, product event pipelines, and billing/invoicing systems.

• Commitment to building clean, well-documented, and user-friendly data sets.

• Excellent communication and collaboration skills—you’ll work closely with non-technical teams including Finance, RevOps, and Marketing.

• Ability to balance quick wins with building scalable, long-term data architecture.

🌱 Nice to Have

• Experience in a B2B SaaS or subscription business, especially working with ARR/MRR, churn, and retention data.

• Background in product analytics (e.g., tracking feature adoption and engagement).

• Knowledge of data testing frameworks and CI/CD for analytics (e.g., dbt tests, Great Expectations).
