About the role:
We're looking for a Senior Analytics Engineer to help build and evolve Creative Market's data platform, using tools from the modern data stack such as dbt, Snowflake, Metabase, Dagster, and Amplitude. At Creative Market, our data function exists to provide accurate, timely, and insightful reporting to stakeholders throughout the organization, as well as create value through various data science initiatives.

As a Senior Analytics Engineer, you'll play a pivotal role in shaping our data-driven decision-making process and provide advanced insights to drive business growth and innovation.

This role offers a unique opportunity to take ownership of our analytics function and drive its evolution

You will further build our self-serve data platform by following software engineering best practices such as version control and continuous integration - developing intuitive, tested, and documented data models, and creating reliable dashboards.

You'll also collaborate frequently with Product, Marketing, Sales, and our leadership team to transform data into meaningful stories that guide confident, informed decisions

As a Senior Analytics Engineer, you'll be responsible for:

• Leading efforts to define and build success metrics for Marketing and Product programs and campaigns that drive meaningful growth
• Delivering well-defined, transformed, tested, documented, and code-reviewed datasets that enable confident decision making
• Proactively analyzing data and insights, and communicating clear opportunities to stakeholders to drive performance. This is not a passive reporting role

• Conducting exploratory analysis to uncover new areas of opportunity, generate hypotheses, and quickly assess and clearly communicate the potential upside of a given opportunity. This person will make recommendations based on findings to drive quality business decisions

• Identifying and integrating valuable data sources using ETL tools (e.g. Fivetran, Stitch) or custom pipelines in Python (we use Dagster)
• Collaborating with research and engineering teams to improve data models that feed business intelligence tools, increase data accessibility, and foster data-driven decision making across the organization
• Implementing processes and systems to monitor data quality, ensuring production data is always accurate and available for key stakeholders that depend on it
• Developing and maintaining scalable data pipelines and building out new API integrations to support growth in data volume and complexity
• Defining and maintaining clear data documentation, definitions, and governance to ensure consistency across metrics like MAU and MRR
• Translating analytical findings into strategic recommendations that drive product enhancements, customer satisfaction, and revenue growth

We believe it's important for you to have:

• 5+ years of experience in data analysis or analytics engineering roles with a progressive increase in responsibility

• Proven data wrangling and modeling skills. You can clean, transform, and enrich even the messiest data, structuring it to facilitate accurate and scalable analysis
• Proficiency in Python. You're comfortable writing tested, version-controlled programs (we use Git), and ideally have experience with ETL tools or orchestration frameworks such as Dagster
• Experience with cloud data platforms and scalable data architecture. You're comfortable working with data in cloud environments (e.g., Snowflake) and designing pipelines and models that can scale with growing data volume and complexity
• Experience with Amplitude and Terraform is helpful, but not essential
• Excellent problem-solving abilities. You have a track record of developing creative and effective solutions to complex analytical challenges
• Strong communication skills. You can translate complex technical insights into clear, compelling narratives for both technical and non-technical stakeholders
• Natural collaboration and organizational skills. You work effectively across teams, manage multiple priorities, and take initiative to lead data-driven projects from concept to impact
• Expertise in data mining and analysis methods. You're skilled at uncovering insights that drive product innovation and business growth
