- Automate reports, dashboards, and data visualisations to communicate insights and trends effectively to stakeholders.
- Build and maintain tooling and frameworks to automate data pipelines for experimentation and machine learning modelling.

Preferred Skills
- Previous experience in similar analytics engineering roles focused on product analytics and data modelling.
- Experience working with distributed event stores and stream processing platforms such as Kafka or Kinesis.
- Experience with batch processing frameworks such as dbt, Argo Workflows or Apache Airflow.
