About the Role

We are seeking a talented and experienced Senior Data Analyst / Analytics Engineer with deep expertise in Tableau, Google BigQuery, Snowflake, and modern semantic data modeling (LookML / Looker, dbt, Omni, or Looker Studio) to join our team. In this role, you will lead critical business intelligence modernization initiatives, reverse-engineering complex reporting logic from legacy dashboards and rebuilding high-performance analytical data models to power executive decision-making.

Job Description

As a Senior Data Analyst / Analytics Engineer, you will work closely with technical leads, product managers, and business stakeholders to modernize legacy BI environments.

You will be responsible for deconstructing legacy dashboard architectures, extracting embedded business rules and Level of Detail (LOD) calculations, and re-architecting those metrics into scalable SQL models and LookML-governed cloud semantic layers.

You will perform as a core data translator, bridging the gap between cloud data warehouses, semantic layers, and client-facing business teams.

Qualification & Experience

• Bachelor's or master's degree in a quantitative field such as computer science, systems engineering, mathematics, statistics, or a related technical discipline.
• At least 5 years of professional experience in data analytics, business intelligence, or analytics engineering.
• At least 4 years of hands-on experience using Tableau to design, maintain, and audit complex dashboards and calculated fields.
• Demonstrated hands-on experience coding and maintaining LookML semantic models (views, explores, derived tables) in Looker.
• Demonstrated experience with cloud data warehouses, specifically Google BigQuery and/or Snowflake.
• Proven experience delivering BI migration, dashboard refactoring, or semantic data modeling projects.

Required Skills / Competencies

• Advanced Tableau Engineering: Deep understanding of complex Tableau calculations, parameters, table calculations, and Level of Detail (LOD) expressions (FIXED, INCLUDE, EXCLUDE), with the ability to unpack workbook logic.
• Cloud Data Warehousing & Advanced SQL: Strong expertise in writing performant, modular SQL (CTEs, window functions) and structuring data within Google BigQuery and/or Snowflake.
• Modern Transformations & Modeling: Hands-on experience with dbt for building curated data models and managing transformation workflows.
• LookML & Modern BI Semantic Layers: Direct, hands-on experience writing LookML (.view and .model files, Explores, Persistent Derived Tables, symmetric aggregates) with Git version control, alongside building curated topics in Omni Analytics or Looker Studio.
• Data Validation & Quality Assurance: Rigorous approach to data reconciliation, checking data parity between legacy source reporting and modernized target models.
• Communication & Stakeholder Management: Excellent verbal and written English communication skills (Full Professional / Advanced) to lead technical discussions, clarify metric definitions, and present solutions directly to stakeholders.
• Ways of Working: Self-motivated, proactive problem-solver comfortable working independently in an Agile sprint-based environment.

Responsibilities

• Reverse-Engineer Reporting Logic: Audit and deconstruct legacy Tableau workbooks, deciphering nested formulas, calculated fields, and LOD expressions into clear business documentation.
• Warehouse Data Modeling: Translate extracted business logic into scalable, maintainable SQL and transformation models using dbt across BigQuery and Snowflake.
• Semantic Layer Implementation: Architect, write, and maintain LookML semantic models, reusable metrics, and self-service Explores/topics in Looker, Omni Analytics, or Looker Studio.
• Data Parity & Governance: Implement thorough data validation checks to ensure metrics produced in the modern semantic layer match legacy benchmarks with 100% precision.
• Stakeholder Alignment: Collaborate with technical teams, data engineers, and business leaders to define canonical KPI definitions and document data dictionaries.
• Best Practices & Documentation: Establish reusable modeling standards, Git workflows, documentation, and maintainable BI pipelines for long-term platform health.

If you are a senior data practitioner with deep experience across Tableau, LookML, BigQuery, Snowflake, and modern semantic modeling, we encourage you to apply for this exciting opportunity.
