Full Job Description
Analytics Engineer, Data

We're looking for an Analytics Engineer, Data to own internal analytics enablement - the bridge between our business teams and our data. You'll translate questions from product, go-to-market, and executive partners into trusted metrics and build them into our semantic layer so they're defined once and reused everywhere. At its core, this is a building role: you'll expand our semantic layer and the Claude-powered agentic analytics on top of it - the metrics, models, and metadata that let our teams and Claude answer questions directly - so the organization can increasingly answer its own questions. It suits someone equally at home in a stakeholder conversation and in a data model, who measures success by how much self-serve they create. We work in an AI-native way: Claude is part of our daily analytics workflow, and much of this role is making our data ever more usable by it.
What You'll Work On
  • Partner with product, go-to-market, and executive stakeholders - running discovery on ambiguous questions and scoping the metrics and data they actually need
  • Raise data trust - adding the validation, definitions, and documentation that let users rely on the numbers and our tooling
  • Expand and own our semantic / metrics layer - defining and maintaining metric definitions and models so analytics are consistent, trustworthy and reusable across the company
  • Deliver self-serve and AI-accessible analytics - curated datasets, metrics, and reporting that internal partners and our agentic / LLM querying surface can answer on their own
  • Ingest net new data - designing and building pipelines to bring in new sources such as GTM and product-usage data and modeling them for analytics
What We're Looking For

We care about judgment and ownership over credentials.
  • 3+ years in analytics engineering, data, or a closely related role, including ownership of metrics or data models that other teams rely on
  • Deep SQL and hands-on data modeling - dimensional modeling, incremental transformations, and a feel for clean, maintainable models
  • Proven experience building and expanding a semantic / metrics layer - its models, definitions, and context - that other teams adopt; you've owned what others depend on rather than consumed it
  • Extensive hands-on experience using Claude/Codex for analytics - you've done substantive analytical work with it and know how to structure data, metrics, and metadata so it answers reliably
  • The ability to stand up a new data source end to end - comfort with orchestration, APIs, and batch ETL, not just querying what already exists
  • Excellent stakeholder communication - you can lead a conversation with a non-technical partner, walk away with a data spec, and explain a metric so people trust it
  • A builder's mindset - you're motivated by creating durable, reusable metrics and self-serve infrastructure that scales beyond any single request
  • Working knowledge of a cloud data warehouse (GCP / BigQuery preferred), a BI tool such as Looker, and Python for pipeline and tooling work
Signals That You'll Thrive Here

These aren't hard requirements, but strong indicators:
  • You've designed or expanded a semantic or metrics layer and made it stick across teams
  • You've owned self-service analytics and metrics like pipeline, retention, product usage
  • You've built agents, Claude skills, or MCP tooling that other people rely on
  • You've supported executive reporting and recurring operating cadences
  • You've worked across BigQuery, dbt or Cube, Looker, and Airflow / Composer
Why Analytics Engineering at Narvar?

Post-purchase is one of the most data-rich and underserved problem spaces in e-commerce. We process 10+ billion consumer interactions across 1,500+ retailers, 38 countries, and 55 languages. The analytics we surface are how decisions get made - by merchants through our products, and by our own product, GTM, and leadership teams internally - and our agentic AI (Navi) reasons over the data layer you'd help shape. We're at an inflection point, investing in embedded merchant analytics, a self-serve semantic layer, and LLM-readiness. In this role you're the connective tissue: the person who turns the right questions into trusted, reusable metrics - and gets to watch them drive real decisions.
