As a Senior Analytics Engineer at Lithic, you'll be a key contributor to our data platform and the data products that power our business.

  • Work with real-time payments data at massive scale and help shape the future of our data platform as we grow
  • Design and implement data models that enable critical business functions across the organization
  • Build and maintain data products that support automated reporting, customer-facing analytics, and operational workflows
  • Collaborate with the Risk team to develop monitoring systems and analytical frameworks for risk assessment

  • Comfort with ambiguity and ability to drive projects forward with minimal oversight

Our Ideal Candidate

You're a versatile analytics engineer who enjoys tackling diverse challenges across different business domains. You thrive on ownership and approach problems at a goal level rather than a task level. You're excited about building systems that scale and enable others to self-serve their data needs. You understand that great data infrastructure requires both technical excellence and a deep understanding of the business context. You have good hunches about when to prefer simplicity over complexity. You enjoy collaborating with stakeholders to uncover true needs and delivering solutions that exceed expectations.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
