Senior Analytics Engineer
Octus' Business Intelligence team is seeking a Senior Analytics Engineer to enhance data-driven decision-making across the organization. In this role, you will take ownership of our dbt models and Snowflake data warehouse, ensuring the reliability, scalability, and performance of the data infrastructure that shapes company strategy. You'll serve as a critical bridge between our data engineering and analytics teams, translating complex business requirements into clean, well-documented data models that analysts and stakeholders can trust.
Key responsibilities include developing a deep understanding of our data tech stack, key data sources, and business domain to become a go-to resource for data questions across the organization. You will own and evolve our dbt project by improving model structure, documentation, testing coverage, and overall warehouse architecture. Writing performant, scalable SQL that integrates complex data from multiple sources into reliable tables and views to power critical business decisions is essential. Additionally, you will monitor and optimize Snowflake costs through query optimization, warehouse tuning, clustering strategies, and proactive recommendations. Collaborating with analysts, data scientists, and business stakeholders to translate business requirements into well-modeled, reusable data assets is also a key aspect of the role.
The ideal candidate will have 8+ years of experience in data analytics, analytics engineering, or data engineering. Expert-level SQL skills with proven ability to model complex, high-volume datasets in a cloud data warehouse, preferably Snowflake, are required. Hands-on experience with dbt (Core or Cloud), including advanced features such as macros, tests, snapshots, and incremental models, is essential. Familiarity with data visualization and BI tools such as Sigma, Tableau, or Power BI is expected. Experience with Python for data transformation, scripting, or pipeline work is a plus. A background in financial data, pipeline modeling, or SaaS/fintech analytics is strongly preferred. Strong analytical thinking and attention to detail, along with excellent communication skills to explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders, are crucial. The candidate should be comfortable working autonomously in a fast-paced, remote-first environment while collaborating closely with cross-functional teams.
