• Self-Service Infrastructure: Scale our ability to serve customers by automating data delivery, ensuring our frontline teams have reliable, self-service access to the metrics that matter without relying on ad-hoc requests.

• Operational Support: Orchestrate the resolution of high-velocity data requests from internal stakeholders, ensuring critical business questions are answered efficiently.

• Gap Analysis & Solutions: Identify product gaps and deploy rapid-response data solutions or custom data pulls to ensure business continuity while partnering with engineering on long-term fixes.

• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Collaborate with stakeholders to define the highest-value opportunities, delivering end-to-end data solutions that eliminate blind spots and drive measurable business impact.

What we’re looking for:

• Education: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in a relevant field (e.g., Mathematics, Statistics, Computer Science, Business Analytics) or relevant experience.

• Experience: 3+ years of experience in analytics engineering, business intelligence, or data analytics, preferably within ad tech or media.

• Technical Skills: Strong expertise in SQL and BI tools (specifically Looker); proficient in reading and writing Python; experienced with Snowflake and BigQuery; some exposure to ETL and data warehousing.

• Communication: A collaborative communicator who fosters strong relationships across both technical and business functions.

• Adaptability: You possess a high degree of adaptability, ready to enthusiastically dive into new fields with a resourceful, hands-on mindset to solve complex problems.

• Autonomy: Comfortable operating independently to deliver results in a rapidly evolving landscape.

• Bonus: Familiarity with advertising metrics, brand safety, and platform-specific analytics (e.g., YouTube or TikTok) is a strong plus. Additionally, experience with BigQuery or ADH is a plus.
