About the role:

We are looking for a Senior Analytics Engineer to work within our FinCrime domain.

  • Building and maintaining data models to expose reliable data for analysis and reporting
  • Communicating with analysts and business stakeholders to understand the commercial requirements, translating them into a technical solution to ensure reliable self-serve data is available for decision making  
  • Developing standards and best practices for data consumption, including educating data consumers on data quality, availability and interpretation
  • Identifying opportunities to reduce complexity and increase efficiency across data models and our data warehouse
  • Ensuring the data and output is of high quality - tested, automated, scalable and documented

This role will have an immediate impact on the quality of data presented and used to solve business problems. 

What we’re looking for from you: 

  • You are comfortable with daily use of SQL and (preferably) have with a modern cloud datawarehouse environment. 
  • You’re comfortable automating processes and deploying applications in Python, and developing production standard Python scripts to extract data and perform analysis
  • You have the ability to work confidently with the tools of modern software engineering, for example working with the command line, version control, testing and performing code reviews
  • You see yourself as a problem-solver who wants to understand the business problem and communicate the commercial impact alongside the technical solution 
  • You are an advocate for data-driven decision making who strives to improve processes, establish best practices and define standards
  • You have familiarity with dbt to design and implement data models (nice to have)
  • You have an open mind with respect to diversity and inclusivity. Our team (and customers) come from all over the world

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
  • Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
  • The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
  • Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
  • We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
  • We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
  • From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
  • We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
  • If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
  • EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
