• Data Accessibility and Democratization:
  Develop intuitive, business-friendly data models and assets optimized for analytics. Ensure the right data is available to the right people at the right time, empowering self-service analytics and operational reporting.

• Feature Store and Data Product Development:
  Curate and maintain high-value datasets and features in the Feature Store to support analytical and machine learning use cases. Track usage metrics and continually optimize for performance and impact.

• Collaboration and Mentorship:
  Partner cross-functionally with analysts, engineers, and product teams to define data requirements, identify opportunities for process improvements, and align on strategic priorities. Provide mentorship and technical guidance to junior team members.

• Continuous Improvement:
  Stay current with emerging technologies, tools, and trends in analytics engineering, cloud computing, and data governance. Lead or contribute to initiatives that improve scalability, efficiency, and reliability of MX’s data ecosystem.

  Minimum 5 years of experience in analytics engineering, data engineering, or business intelligence roles, with a proven track record of designing and delivering reliable, high-performance data products at scale.

• Technical Skills:

  • Expert-level SQL proficiency (including advanced window functions, CTEs, subqueries, and query optimization).

  • Strong understanding of dimensional modeling, star/snowflake schemas, and SCD management.

  • Proficiency with cloud data warehouses (Google BigQuery preferred; Snowflake, Redshift, or Databricks acceptable).

  • Familiarity with programming languages such as Python for workflow automation and data quality checks.

  • Experience with modern data versioning and collaboration tools (Git, CI/CD pipelines).

  • Understanding of data governance, lineage, and cataloging tools (e.g., dbt, Dataform, or equivalent).

• Professional Skills:

  • Proven ability to collaborate cross-functionally and communicate complex data concepts to non-technical audiences.

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with keen attention to detail and system-level thinking.
