About the Role

We’re looking for an Analytics Engineer to join our Data Platform team at Moonpig Group, where you’ll play a pivotal role in empowering the business to make smarter, data-driven decisions that shape meaningful customer experiences.

• Ensure data quality, reliability, and accessibility through automated testing, monitoring, and governance.
• Partner with BI, Data Science, and Engineering teams to deliver impactful data products.
• Govern and optimise the Snowflake data warehouse for performance, security, and cost‑efficiency.
• Develop automated data tests, monitoring, and alerts using tools like Metaplane.
• Maintain clear documentation and promote best practices in analytics engineering.
• Evaluate and integrate emerging technologies (e.g., Dagster) to improve efficiency and scalability.

About you

• You have exceptional SQL skills for complex data manipulation and analysis.
• You’re highly skilled in dbt, designing and maintaining scalable transformation models.
• You have experience with Snowflake or other big data systems (e.g., BigQuery).
• You bring working knowledge of Python for automation and data integration.
• You thrive in an agile environment, balancing precision with timely delivery.
• You’re naturally curious, always seeking to enhance your technical capabilities.

Bonus points if you also have

• Experience with Metaplane or similar data monitoring tools.
• Familiarity with git for version control.
• Exposure to orchestration and ingestion tools such as Fivetran or Dagster.
• Understanding of data visualisation tools such as Tableau.

Our Tech Stack

• Data Stack: Snowflake, dbt, SQL, Python, Fivetran, Dagster, Metaplane, Tableau
• Infrastructure: AWS (SageMaker, EC2, Lambda, Glue, S3), Terraform, API Gateway
• Collaboration: GitHub, Jira, Confluence
• Analytics: GA4, GTM, GCP BigQuery

What's in it for you?

We believe in empowering our team to do their best work. Enjoy:

💰 Competitive Pay & Bonuses: Plus, generous pension plans & staff discounts.
