About the Role

Join an early analytics function at an AI/ML startup and own its data foundation across the warehouse, production pipelines, BI, and conversion tracking. Your work will shape business decisions and the data used to optimize advertising performance.

• Design and operate the ClickHouse warehouse, including schemas, ingestion, backfills, and performance improvements.

• Build reliable Python pipelines from databases, payment systems, collaboration tools, and advertising platforms, with testing, monitoring, recovery, and data verification.

• Manage conversion tracking and attribution data, including server-side events and feeds of lifetime gross profit to advertising platforms.

• Build and maintain BI dashboards for growth, finance, support, and product, and retire outdated dashboards.

• Analyze retention, unit economics, attribution, churn, and pricing impact, and proactively flag important metric changes.

• Partner with company leaders to scope and prioritize work, using coding agents while remaining accountable for correctness and production behavior.

What We're Looking For

• 2 to 10+ years of experience, including ownership of production data pipelines built with Python.

• Hands-on experience with a columnar warehouse such as ClickHouse, Snowflake, BigQuery, or Redshift.

• Experience building BI dashboards with Hex, Metabase, or Looker, and defining business metrics such as retention cohorts and unit economics.

• Familiarity with Stripe and SaaS metrics such as MRR, ARR, NDR, and LTV; experience with conversion tracking, attribution, Meta Conversions API, or Google Ads conversion imports is valuable.

• Daily use of coding agents, strong engineering ownership, and comfort working proactively in a fast-moving team.
