Full Job Description
What you'll do

  • Establish Data Foundations: Build the data infrastructure needed to deeply understand agent behavior, usage patterns, and performance-turning raw signals into actionable intelligence that informs product and business decisions.
  • Build Agent Evaluation Infrastructure: Design and implement structured evaluation frameworks for Supio's AI agents, creating the measurement systems that enable continuous improvement of our core product.
  • Analyze User Behavior: Investigate how customers interact with Supio's platform, comparing natural language input patterns against traditional click-based behavior to surface insights that drive product strategy.
  • Solve High-Impact Business Problems: Identify and build systems that address Supio's most critical data challenges, driving outcomes that matter to the business rather than producing routine reports.
  • Shape Data Strategy: Partner with senior engineering and leadership to define where data creates the most leverage, elevating the function beyond basic analytics toward real business impact.


Qualifications

  • Experience: 4+ years in data engineering or data science, with a track record of owning and delivering complex data projects end-to-end as an individual contributor.
  • Technical Skills: Proficiency with modern data engineering and data science stacks and tools; hands-on experience with data lakes, read replicas, and distributed data systems.
  • Business Acumen: Drive and demonstrate ability to deeply understand business context and product goals-you seek out the 'why' before building the 'what.'
  • Problem Formulation: Creative problem solver who translates ambiguous business questions into well-scoped data problems with measurable outcomes.
  • Independent Execution: Proven track record driving projects from initial scoping through delivery without requiring close direction; you own outcomes, not just tasks.
  • Communication: Strong ability to communicate technical concepts and findings to non-technical stakeholders, including senior leadership.
  • Collaboration: Comfortable working across engineering, product, and leadership teams in a fast-moving startup environment.
  • Familiarity with LLMs, AI agents, or evaluation frameworks for generative AI systems.
