Analytics Engineering is at the core of how we build our data to enable Monzo to make better and faster decisions by having a performant, scalable, and high quality data warehouse.

• Focus on optimisation of our Data Warehouse, spotting opportunities to reduce complexity and cost.
• Help define and manage best practices for our Data Warehouse, including payload design of source data, logical data modelling, implementation, metadata and testing standards.
• Set standards and ways of working with data across Monzo, collaborating with others to make it happen.
• Apply established best practices and standards defined by the team within other areas of the business.
• Investigate and effectively work with colleagues from other disciplines to monitor and improve data quality within the warehouse.
• Contribute to prioritisation of data governance issues.
• Own and support the pipelines you contribute to; on call support out of hours may be expected from time to time.

• You enjoy working with cross functional fast moving teams and are passionate about serving small businesses.
• You can think strategically about the Business Banking product and how our underlying data models will unlock more insights for our team and more value for our customers.
• You have a strong passion for data modelling, ETL projects, and Big Data.
• You work comfortably with data streams from various services, such as financial, transactional, and operational systems.
• SQL and data modelling are second nature to you, and you are comfortable with general Data Warehouse concepts.
