Freelance Analytics Engineer

Talk360 connects more than 6 million people worldwide every year, and we rely on data we can trust. As we have grown, our data foundations have not always kept pace.

We are building a new environment for how Talk360 works with data, and we are looking for a Freelance Analytics Engineer to own the transformation layer at the core of it. You will create clean, tested, documented, business-ready models that everyone across the company can rely on.

What You'll Do

• Data modelling and pipelines: Build and maintain scalable, reliable data models that expose high-quality data for analysis and reporting. Where needed, deliver dashboards to drive more self-serve across teams.
• Source of truth: Build a dbt Cloud project from a clean slate, from determining the structure through to the testing framework. Turn our agreed KPIs and metric definitions into tested, versioned, documented models that anyone can use. A lot of the definitional groundwork is in place so you can start on solid ground.
• Stakeholder collaboration: Work closely with teams across the business to understand their requirements, translating them into technical solutions that enable reliable, self-serve data for decision making.
• Quality and governance: Set the standards, conventions, and governance that keep the warehouse maintainable as we grow and build the monitoring and alerting that catches data quality issues before they reach the business.
• Support data culture: Encourage the use of data to optimise business performance and bring fresh analytical thinking to the table.

Our current tech includes

• Data warehouse: BigQuery
• Ingestion: Stitch
• Transformation: dbt Cloud
• Visualisation: currently migrating to a new BI tool, moving away from Tableau and QuickSight
