Semantic Layer Management: Build and optimize LookML models and Tableau data sources to ensure a "single source of truth" across the organization.
Snowflake Optimization: Write and refine complex SQL to transform raw Atlas data into performant reporting tables, focusing on query efficiency and cost-governance.
Pipeline Collaboration: Partner with Data Engineers to define requirements for data ingestion and modeling, ensuring the underlying Snowflake architecture supports end-user needs.
Stakeholder Enablement: Act as a subject matter expert for our BI toolset, conducting training sessions and office hours to empower business users to perform self-service analysis.
Experience: 5+ years of professional experience in Business Intelligence, Data Engineering, or Data Analytics.
SQL Mastery: Strong proficiency in SQL for data transformation, including experience with CTEs, window functions, and performance tuning.
BI Tool Proficiency: Hands-on experience building and deploying production-level dashboards in Tableau and/or Looker (including LookML development).
Data Warehousing: Experience working within databases, specifically navigating schemas and understanding performance.
Python: Proficiency in Python for data manipulation or automation tasks.
Analytical Mindset: Proven ability to take a vague business request and translate it into a structured technical solution.
Robotics Data Familiarity: Prior experience working with Robotics datasets or similar large-scale distributed databases.
Snowflake): Experience using and maintaining Snowflake, specifically Tables, Views, Tasks, Functions and Procedures.
Version Control: Familiarity with Git workflows for managing LookML or dbt code.
Certification: Tableau Desktop Specialist or Looker Business Analyst certifications are a plus.
We are interested in all qualified candidates eligible to work in the United States. However, we are not able to sponsor visas for this position.
The base pay range for this position is between $90,000.00 to $110,000.00 annually. Base pay will depend on multiple individualized factors, including, but not limited to, internal equity, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience.
