Remote
Senior Analytics Engineer
About this role
Jellyfish helps engineering organizations understand how their teams work, and that starts with data people can actually trust. We are looking for a Senior Analytics Engineer to help turn our growing data platform into a consistent, well-modeled foundation for analytics, product development, and customer-facing insights. You’ll sit between raw data and the people consuming it, defining durable models, improving data quality, and making sure important business concepts mean the same thing everywhere they appear.
If you care about clean semantic models, reproducible transformations, and making it easy for others to confidently use data, you’re the perfect fit. What you’ll actually be doing: - Data Modeling - You’ll design and maintain analytical data models that turn raw engineering and product data into understandable, reusable datasets. You’ll help define facts, dimensions, metrics, and canonical business entities that can be shared across the organization.
- Transformation Frameworks - You’ll help introduce and mature tools like dbt for managing transformations, testing, documentation, and lineage. You’ll establish patterns that make analytical transformations easier to understand, review, and maintain. - Data Quality - You’ll build automated checks for completeness, freshness, uniqueness, referential integrity, and other important quality signals. You’ll help move us from discovering bad data downstream to detecting problems closer to their source.
- Metric Consistency - You’ll partner with Product, Engineering, and Analytics to establish clear definitions for important metrics and ensure those definitions are implemented consistently across dashboards, APIs, and customer-facing experiences. - Developer Enablement - You’ll make it easier for engineers and analysts to understand and use our data. That includes documentation, examples, reusable models, and helping teams understand how data flows through the platform.
You’re a great fit if: - SQL Fluency - You are extremely comfortable working with complex SQL and can reason about performance, correctness, and maintainability. - Analytics Engineering Experience - You’ve worked with tools like dbt or similar transformation frameworks and understand concepts like staging models, intermediate models, marts, testing, lineage, and semantic layers. - Strong Data Modeling Fundamentals - You understand dimensional modeling, normalized and denormalized models, facts and dimensions, grain, slowly changing dimensions, and how modeling decisions affect downstream consumers.
