Analytics Lead$160k - $190k • meaningful equity
About the RoleThis is the first dedicated analytics hire inside MAG. You won't be one analyst among many. You are the analytics function. From day one, the work you ship drives lender deliverables and the GM's daily read on the book.
You'll build and own the reporting and dashboard layer end to end on a modern stack (Postgres, Redshift, dbt, Hex, Metabase): daily P&L, intraday position and exposure visibility, auditable close-period snapshots, and covenant reporting packages. Roughly two thirds of the work is historical and close period; the remaining third is near real time operational visibility during event days. Direct access to the people making decisions, GM, traders, and engineers, comes with the seat.
You'll also have full access to modern AI tooling, including Claude Code and Cursor, and you're expected to use it. We hire people who treat LLM tooling as a force multiplier on their own work, not as something to be skeptical of or save for side projects. A lean analytics function only works when the person in the seat ships at the pace these tools enable. .
Who you are and what you will do- Build daily MAG P&L reporting and intraday dashboards covering open positions, exposures, and capital utilization against debt financing limits, refreshed at minute cadence on event days, with attribution by trader, strategy, venue, league, and bet type
- Own the dbt layer that powers everything downstream: versioned, tested, documented, and traceable to source trades, with data quality, access controls, and audit trails aligned to firewall requirements between MAG and Novig
- Produce auditable monthly close period snapshots and lender facing covenant reporting packages, in partnership with Novig
- Build the data plumbing as MAG onboards new venues, traders, and strategies: normalized feeds, attribution, P&L slicing, and risk views ready before day one
- Partner with the GM on backtesting and scenario analysis, and build self serve analytics so the GM and traders can answer recurring questions without you in the loop
- 4 to 6 years in analytics engineering with strong SQL and dbt, fluent in Hex or Metabase. Meaningful financial services or trading exposure: you know the difference between position and P&L, realized vs. unrealized, and you're comfortable modeling fees, slippage, and attribution
- A designer as well as a builder. You can talk to the GM, traders, and engineers without translation, and you're comfortable being the sole analytics owner in a lean, senior firm
- AI native workflow. Claude Code, Cursor, and LLM assisted development are part of how you already work, and you're opinionated about where these tools earn their keep and where they don't
Not for everyone- Our work is tied to live sports - that means potential nights, weekends, and pressure included.
- If you need clear swim lanes, a heavy process, or someone to tell you what to do, this won't be the right environment.
