## About the Role

* 5+ years in BI/analytics engineering with production Looker/LookML experience (models, explores, derived tables, PDTs, access filters) - not just dashboard consumption
 * 4+ years of advanced SQL in Snowflake or a comparable cloud warehouse (window functions, incremental merge patterns, query performance tuning)

 * Experience working within a vendor-managed or templated ELT/transformation framework (Daasity, Fivetran + dbt, Matillion, or similar) - comfortable extending vendor patterns without introducing untracked one-offs
 * Demonstrated ownership of data governance practices: field documentation, metric standardization, deprecation of unused assets, access control
 * Strong stakeholder communication - able to translate finance/ops/merch requirements into data models and explain tradeoffs to non-technical leadership
 * Ability to independently produce and maintain data lineage documentation at the level of source system, warehouse object, BI object, business consumer

Ideal Candidate:

 * Experience with semantic layer design, data governance, and scalable architecture
 * Strong Snowflake, SQL, and Looker expertise
 * Background in BI, analytics engineering, or data engineering
 * Builder mindset with the ability to balance technical engineering and business needs
