Who You Are:

As a Senior Data Analyst, you will play a key role in our growing data team, working closely with analysts, analytics engineers, data engineers, and stakeholders to generate insights and solve business problems. You will focus on building and maintaining reliable data models, enabling self-service data exploration, and supporting data-driven decision-making across the company. This role requires both technical expertise and strong collaboration to deliver impactful results.

We are looking for a motivated and detail-oriented analyst with strong technical skills and a collaborative mindset. You thrive in a dynamic environment, contributing to efficient data models, maintaining data pipelines, and helping stakeholders derive actionable insights.

Reporting to the Data Team Manager, you will be part of a team dedicated to collecting, curating, and providing reliable business data across the organization. You will help create a scalable, self-service data ecosystem that empowers teams with the insights they need to make informed decisions.

This is a remote role open to US-based candidates.

What You Will Do:

• Data Modeling and Transformation:
  • Utilize dbt to build, maintain, and document business data models that facilitate in-depth analysis.
  • Develop scalable and efficient data marts designed to support self-service analytics.
  • Ensure data models align with business needs and simplify the analysis process for stakeholders.
• Stakeholder Collaboration:
  • Partner with stakeholders to understand business questions and create actionable insights.
  • Transform business requirements into clear technical specifications that support robust data analysis.
  • Provide technical expertise and support to stakeholders utilizing self-service data.
  • Define, track, and monitor business KPIs and metrics.
• Pipeline Maintenance and Optimization:
  • Collaborate with data engineers to ensure that data pipelines are optimized for delivering accurate and timely data.
  • Work with tools like Census to integrate data models seamlessly into our analytics workflows.
  • Monitor data quality and resolve anomalies to ensure reliable data for analysis.
• Documentation and Best Practices:
  • Create and maintain thorough documentation of data models and analytical processes.
  • Advocate for best practices in data governance, analysis methodologies, and model testing.

What You Bring to the Table: 

Required

• 3+ years experience in analytics, data science, or equivalent analytical functions.
• Advanced proficiency in SQL, including concepts such as window functions and CTEs.
• Hands-on experience with dbt and an ability to engage non-technical stakeholders in data discussions.
• A collaborative mindset with the ability to work effectively alongside data engineers, analysts, and business teams.
• Strong analytical skills with comfort in exploratory and descriptive data analysis.
• Experience with data warehousing platforms and tools like Databricks, Snowflake, BigQuery, or Redshift.

Preferred

• Experience integrating dbt into cloud-based data pipelines.
• Understanding of data warehousing concepts and modern data architectures.
• Knowledge of A/B testing or statistical analysis.
• Experience with tools like Google Analytics or Amplitude.
• Experience with data documentation (e.g., creating data dictionaries, data catalogs, or stakeholder-facing documentation in tools like Notion).

What We Bring to the Table:

• Competitive and fair compensation: We believe in fair pay--equal pay for equal work. For each title, we consistently apply competitive salary bands based on market data and benchmarks which are reviewed twice a year. What you’ve been paid before, fear of conflict, or willingness to negotiate does not play a part in determining your pay.
  • The annual base salary range for this position is $113,000 - $133,000. Placement within the range is determined by a variety of factors, including but not limited to: knowledge, skills, years & depth of experience, and equity with internal team members. 
• 401(k) retirement plan: We offer both a Traditional and Roth 401(k) with a company match.
• Company-paid medical: Our medical, dental and vision premiums are covered 100% for you and your dependents. 
• Paid parental leave: Welcoming new family members is exciting, but it can also be challenging. We offer twelve weeks paid leave for primary caregivers and four weeks for secondary caregivers. 
• Unlimited vacation: At Storyblocks, we believe in the importance of taking time off when you need it. Typically, employees take about three or four weeks each year. Plus, two company-wide week breaks in July and December.
• Flexible work options As a fully remote company, we’ve got you covered no matter where you are. Remote work stipend? Check. Company and team events? Check.
• Flexible work options: All of our work is virtual. As long as you deliver results, you are welcome to get your work done during unusual times when desired.
• Company-sponsored mentorship and growth: We encourage attending virtual meetups and are happy to host them as well. We also have a leadership coach, on staff, available to all employees to enhance your professional development.
• Employee perks: We help employees maintain work-life balance and honor their contributions to the organization by offering resources such as a financial wellness program, a subscription service that offers unlimited deliveries from thousands of eligible restaurants with $0 delivery, and a recognition and rewards program that celebrates their accomplishments.
