Analytics Engineering Manager

• Demonstrated ability to own a technical roadmap for a domain area and deliver against it with measurable business impact
• Strong grounding across the modern AE stack (cloud data warehousing, transformation tooling, data modelling, and data quality practices), with the ability to engage credibly on technical decisions and unblock your team
• Comfortable engaging and influencing at senior business and product level, with experience aligning analytics investment to domain priorities

Nice to Have

• Experience in a marketplace, e-commerce, grocery, or retail analytics context
• Familiarity with semantic and metrics layer tooling, or Python for data automation and pipeline work
