Senior AI Analytics Engineer

About the Role

As a Senior AI Analytics Engineer in our Data Team, you will bridge the gap between Data Engineering, Tech, and Product. You will play a pivotal role in operationalizing AI/LLM models, building scalable data transformation pipelines, standardizing data models, and establishing best practices.

In addition to core analytics engineering, you will occasionally act as a technical Business Analyst on select data initiatives—partnering with business teams to translate ambiguous operational needs into clear technical specs and data requirements.

Key Responsibilities

• Data & AI Architecture: Design, build, and maintain production-grade data models to bridge raw data streams with downstream applications and BI tools. Using LLMs and AI tools to generate data documentation, write SQL/Python transformations, convert warehouse dialects, and diagnose pipeline error logs.
• Analytics Engineering: Standardize data modeling practices and build robust, reliable, scalable semantic layers that feed clean, trustworthy data to downstream analytics and reporting.
• Business & Requirements Analysis: Occasionally lead scoping discussions with product, tech and finance stakeholders to translate business requirements into functional specs, user stories, and data mapping documents.
• Business Logic Translation: Reconciling data definitions across departments, a critical human-led task that AI cannot fully automate
• Data Quality & Governance: Establish automated testing, monitoring, and data quality frameworks to guarantee financial-grade reliability.
• Performance Optimization: Optimize query performance, warehouse costs, and pipeline orchestration.
