What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Analytics Engineer position at Workrise?
As the leading workforce management solution for the skilled trades, Workrise makes it easier for skilled laborers to find work, and for companies to find in-demand workers. Workrise currently operates in wind, solar, construction, oil and gas, and defense industries. We’re growing, and we’d love to learn what you can add to our team!
We are looking for a leader in the analytics space to help us take our data organization to the next level. The best way to describe this role is being the bridge between business and data engineering. You have extensive analytical experience and understand how data is used and what the business user needs & expects. You want to take that experience and leverage it to help us develop and create the data platform & frameworks to support enterprise data-driven decisions. Considering this is a brand new team, you will be expected to play a leading role in defining the team’s mission & scope, establishing processes, help set expectations with different stakeholders and ultimately create a solid foundation to seed the team.
What you’ll be doing:
- You’ll proactively help define the technical / analytical roadmap for our data platform based on current and future demands.
- You’ll be part of the data organization, but your focus will be on enabling data consumption -- owning what gets developed and how it gets transformed.
- You’ll develop and maintain the semantic layer by conforming data (dimensions & facts) from multiple sources representing different stages of our funnel & life-cycle - CRM, ERP, LMS, Customer Service, etc.
- You’ll be responsible for transforming raw data into actionable analytical information and business logic.
- You’ll be providing clean & reliable data objects to end-users, modeling data in a way that empowers them to answer their own questions.
- You’ll be responsible for creating the reporting artifacts & data connections to support visualization and report building. For example, building the necessary measures, aggregation logic, and refresh frequency to promote sustainable self-service.
- You’ll be partnering with the business stakeholders to understand the different use cases and analytics workflows and transform those business requirements into code.
- You’ll help drive the ingestion and transformation roadmap of internal/external data sources to support the ever-changing business evolution.
What you should have:
- 5 years of experience in an analytics / BI developer role.
- You have extensive data modeling experience (dims, facts, star-schema, denorm, etc.).
- You have data analysis experience - able to dissect business issues, analyze large amounts of data and draw actionable conclusions (in essence, you know your customers).
- You have strong communication skills - particularly with a non-technical audience.
- You have experience partnering with data engineers & data scientists.
- You are highly proficient in SQL. You have experience using a scripting language (Python).
- You have experience with a reporting platform - preferably Tableau.
- You have experience with cloud solutions & ETL/ELT applications.
Our current data stack: Snowflake, Fivetran, DBT, Prefect & GCP Cloud.
