Job summary

Multiverse is seeking an Analytics Engineer to build and maintain data models powering analytics and data science across the business. You’ll develop robust dbt pipelines and evolve our data platform to ensure data is accessible, trusted, and well-structured.

The role emphasizes AI-assisted development using tools like Claude Code, Cursor, and Copilot, while maintaining solid fundamentals to validate outputs and ensure robust, scalable solutions for Snowflake and BI layers.

Qualifications

• Strong experience building and optimising complex SQL (joins, window functions, optimisation).
• Strong grasp of data modelling and warehouse design (Kimball-style).
• Production dbt experience, including testing and documentation.
• Hands-on experience using AI coding tools (e.g. Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code) as a real part of workflow.
• Strong fundamentals to work without AI assistance and to critically assess AI output.
• Familiarity with version control (GitHub).
• Able to translate business logic into technical implementation.
• Comfortable giving and receiving code review.

Responsibilities

• Build and maintain dbt models with AI assistants to accelerate development while retaining full understanding of logic.
• Translate business requirements into scalable data models.
• Design warehouse schemas using dimensional modelling (facts, dimensions, SCDs).
• Participate in design and code reviews — including reviewing AI-generated code with rigour.
• Define and expose models and metrics through the semantic layer for MCP consumption.
• Implement dbt tests for data quality and accuracy.
• Document models and metric definitions for humans and AI.
• Use GitHub and CI/CD pipelines with AI-assisted workflows.

Job description

Multiverse is the upskilling platform for AI and Tech adoption.

We have partnered with 1,500+ companies to deliver a new kind of learning that's transforming today’s workforce.

Our upskilling apprenticeships are designed for people of any age and career stage to build critical AI, data, and tech skills. Our learners have driven $2bn+ ROI for their employers, using the skills they’ve learned to improve productivity and measurable performance.

In April 2026, we announced $70 million in strategic funding, led by Schroders Capital, with participation from StepStone Group, Lightspeed Venture Partners and General Catalyst. At an increased valuation of $2.1bn, the round makes us Europe’s first EdTech double unicorn.

But we aren’t stopping there. With a strong operational footprint and 800+ employees, we have ambitious plans to continue scaling. We’re building a world where tech skills unlock people’s potential and output.

Join Multiverse and power our mission to equip the workforce to win in the AI era.

What we need

We're looking for an Analytics Engineer to help build and maintain the data models that power analytics and data science across the business. You'll develop robust, scalable dbt pipelines and help evolve our data platform — ensuring data is accessible, trusted, and well-structured.

Our core platform (Snowflake, dbt, Airflow) is established and isn't changing. What is changing is the layer on top: we're rethinking our semantic and BI layer for AI/MCP-driven self-service, so analysts, stakeholders, and AI agents can query trusted metrics directly. You'll help design the models and metric definitions that make that possible.

This is also a role built around AI-assisted development. We expect you to use AI tools (e.g. Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot) as a normal part of writing dbt models, tests, and docs — while still understanding what's happening underneath, so you can catch when the tooling gets it wrong and work effectively without it.

You'll report to the Director of Data Engineering within the Data & Insight team. We're looking for someone detail-oriented, pragmatic, and hands-on — who takes ownership, moves quickly without cutting corners, and is responsive to user needs.

What you'll work on

Data Modelling & Transformation

• Build and maintain dbt models, using AI coding assistants to accelerate development while retaining full understanding of the resulting logic

• Translate business requirements into scalable data models

• Design warehouse schemas using dimensional modelling (facts, dimensions, SCDs, etc.)

• Participate in design and code reviews — including reviewing AI-generated code with the same rigour as hand-written code

• Define and expose models and metrics through our semantic layer, with an eye to how AI agents will consume them via MCP

Testing, Documentation, and CI/CD

• Implement dbt tests for data quality and accuracy

• Document models and metric definitions clearly, for both human and AI consumption

• Use GitHub and CI/CD pipelines, incorporating AI-assisted workflows where they add value

Performance & Architecture

• Optimise dbt models and SQL queries for performance and maintainability

• Work with Snowflake on top of a data lake architecture

• Contribute to evolving our semantic/BI layer toward AI/MCP-driven self-service

What we're looking for

Required Skills & Experience

• Strong experience building and optimising complex SQL (joins, window functions, optimisation)

• Strong grasp of data modelling and warehouse design (Kimball-style)

• Production dbt experience, including testing and documentation

• Hands-on experience using AI coding tools (e.g. Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code) as a real part of your workflow, not occasional use

• Strong-enough fundamentals to work confidently without AI assistance and to critically assess AI-generated output

• Familiarity with version control (GitHub)

• Able to independently translate business logic into technical implementation

• Comfortable giving and receiving code review

Desirable - but not required

• Snowflake experience

• Semantic layer experience (e.g. Omni, Cube, dbt Semantic Layer)

• BI tools (e.g. Omni, Tableau, Metabase)

• Exposure to AI agent tooling / MCP

• CI/CD for data workflows

• Python/Airflow familiarity

• Terraform / IaC

Benefits

• Time off - 27 days holiday, plus 5 additional days off: 1 life event day, 2 volunteer days, 2 company-wide wellbeing days (M-Powered Weekend) and 8 bank holidays per year

• Health & Wellness - private medical Insurance with Bupa, a medical cashback scheme, life insurance, gym membership & wellness resources through Wellhub and access to Spill - all in one mental health support

• Hybrid work offering - for most roles we collaborate in the office three days per week with the exception of Coaches and Instructors who collaborate in the office once a month

• Work-from-anywhere scheme - you'll have the opportunity to work from anywhere, up to 10 days per year

• Space to connect: Beyond the desk, we make time for weekly catch-ups, seasonal celebrations, and have a kitchen that’s always stocked!
