Senior Analytics Engineer

Alloy • New York, NY

19h • $198,000 - $250,000 • Hybrid

About The Position

Alloy is seeking a Senior Analytics Engineer to join their Data Platform team. This role is central to establishing the patterns, standards, and culture of Analytics Engineering at Alloy. The Data Platform team owns the infrastructure for data modeling, governance, and delivery, working with a stack including dbt, Snowflake, and Artie. The position is high-leverage, with strategic importance in native warehouse data delivery, agentic workflows, and OLAP infrastructure integration into the product stack. Alloy operates in a hybrid-work environment, with local employees expected onsite three days a week.

Requirements

• 5+ years of experience in analytics engineering, data engineering, or a closely related role, with a strong command of dbt and SQL.
• Hands-on experience with Snowflake or a comparable cloud data warehouse, including performance tuning and warehouse design.
• Experience building or maintaining a semantic layer or metrics layer (e.g., dbt Semantic Layer, MetricFlow, or similar).
• A strong sense of data modeling fundamentals. You have opinions about when to denormalize, how to handle slowly changing dimensions, and what makes a model trustworthy.
• Familiarity with data ingestion and CDC tooling; experience with Artie or similar streaming/replication tools is a plus.
• The ability to partner effectively with Data Science, Engineering, and Product. You translate between technical and non-technical stakeholders without losing precision.
• Experience establishing standards: testing frameworks, documentation practices, naming conventions, and review processes that teams actually follow.
• Comfort working in an environment where the function is still being shaped—you see that as opportunity, not ambiguity.
• Someone who embodies our shared Alloy values: be bold, get scrappy, collaborate, and celebrate our differences.
• Must be local to New York City; hybrid work with Tuesday-Thursday in-office at our Union Square HQ.

Nice To Haves

• Experience with native warehouse data delivery or data sharing patterns (e.g., Snowflake Data Sharing, Marketplace).
• Background in fintech, financial services, or a similarly data-intensive regulated industry.
• Exposure to agentic or LLM-based workflows and the data infrastructure that supports them.
• Experience with BI tooling (e.g., Looker, Tableau) and how semantic layer investments connect to the presentation layer.

Responsibilities

• Design and build robust dbt models that serve as the authoritative foundation for analytics, machine learning features, and customer-facing data products.
• Own and evolve our semantic layer defining metrics, dimensions, and business logic in a way that supports both internal consumers and emerging agentic tooling.
• Partner with Engineering and Data Science to ensure our Snowflake data warehouse is well-structured, performant, and aligned with product needs.
• Establish and champion best practices for data modeling, testing, documentation, and code review across the team.
• Collaborate with client-facing and product teams to scope and deliver native warehouse data delivery to customers.
• Identify and address data quality issues proactively, building the observability and governance frameworks that keep data trustworthy at scale.
• Influence how Analytics Engineering is practiced at Alloy—this is a greenfield opportunity to set the standard.

Benefits

• Unlimited PTO and flexible work policy
• Employee stock options
• Medical, dental, vision plans with HSA (monthly employer contribution) and FSA options
• 401k with 100% match up to 4% of annual employee compensation
• Eligible new parents receive 16 weeks of paid parental leave
• Home office stipend for new employees
• Annual Learning & Development annual stipend
• Well-being benefits include access to ClassPass, OneMedical, UrbanSitter, and Spring Health
