Job summary

SoSafe is building a leading human risk management platform with strong analytics. We seek an experienced analytics/data engineer to model complex SaaS data, integrate events, CRM, and support data, and to define reusable metrics across analytics, product, and AI use cases.

You will own the dbt transformation layer, collaborate with data engineers, and establish best practices in data quality, testing, and documentation to enable self-service and clear data lineage.

Qualifications

• 5+ years in analytics engineering or data engineering with a strong focus on data modeling.
• Strong proficiency in dbt and SQL- building modular, well-tested models.
• Solid understanding of dimensional modeling and metric design.
• Experience with cloud data warehouses (BigQuery, Snowflake, or Redshift).
• Experience with metrics / semantic layers (e.g. dbt metrics, MetricFlow, Cube).
• Strong data quality mindset (testing, validation, monitoring).
• Comfortable working with event-based data and cross-functional teams.
• Able to turn ambiguous business questions into clear data models.
• Strong business acumen with the ability to challenge metric definitions and ensure they reflect real business outcomes.
• Fluent in English.

Responsibilities

• Own the transformation layer in dbt - design, build, and maintain modular, well-tested data models that define how data is structured and consumed across the company.
• Define and implement core business metrics (e.g. activation, engagement, retention) as reusable, versioned data assets- ensuring consistent definitions across analytics, product, and AI use cases.
• Model complex SaaS data by integrating product events, CRM (Salesforce), and support data into clean, well-defined fact and dimension models.
• Build and evolve our semantic layer - creating a reliable abstraction over our data that enables consistent KPI definitions and supports downstream consumers, including LLM-based analytics agents.
• Collaborate with Data Engineers on upstream data contracts and event schemas - ensuring raw data is structured in a way that supports scalable, reliable analytics.
• Establish and enforce best practices in testing, documentation, and data quality- making these part of the standard development lifecycle.
• Document models, metrics, and lineage clearly - enabling self-service and reducing ambiguity across teams.

Job description

SoSafe has the ambition to become the leading human risk management provider in Europe. Our award-winning awareness platform triggers behavioural change by providing effective and engaging training and simulations on cybersecurity and data protection. Cybercrime is costing the world >$10 trillion annually and growing by 15% p.a. - we invite you to be part of the solution! Location: UK, Ireland, or Portugal. Candidates must have work authorization in one of these countries. Office access available in London, Dublin, and Lisbon.

Here’s how you’ll make a difference:

• Own the transformation layer in dbt - design, build, and maintain modular, well-tested data models that define how data is structured and consumed across the company.
• Define and implement core business metrics (e.g. activation, engagement, retention) as reusable, versioned data assets- ensuring consistent definitions across analytics, product, and AI use cases.
• Model complex SaaS data by integrating product events, CRM (Salesforce), and support data into clean, well-defined fact and dimension models.
• Build and evolve our semantic layer - creating a reliable abstraction over our data that enables consistent KPI definitions and supports downstream consumers, including LLM-based analytics agents.
• Collaborate with Data Engineers on upstream data contracts and event schemas - ensuring raw data is structured in a way that supports scalable, reliable analytics.
• Establish and enforce best practices in testing, documentation, and data quality- making these part of the standard development lifecycle.
• Document models, metrics, and lineage clearly - enabling self-service and reducing ambiguity across teams.

What you bring:

• 5+ years in analytics engineering or data engineering with a strong focus on data modeling.
• Strong proficiency in dbt and SQL- building modular, well-tested models.
• Solid understanding of dimensional modeling and metric design.
• Experience working with cloud data warehouses (BigQuery, Snowflake, or Redshift).
• Experience with metrics / semantic layers (e.g. dbt metrics, MetricFlow, Cube).
• Strong data quality mindset (testing, validation, monitoring).
• Comfortable working with event-based data and cross-functional teams.
• Able to turn ambiguous business questions into clear data models.
• Strong business acumen with the ability to challenge metric definitions and ensure they reflect real business outcomes.
• Fluent in English.

Nice to have:

• Familiarity with how LLMs consume structured data- e.g. semantic layers, metrics registries, YAML-based context- and an interest in building data infrastructure that serves AI agents, not just BI tools.
• Experience modeling product usage data (event-based or session-based).

What we offer

• Work/Life balance: Flexible hours, 33 vacation days
• Wellbeing and financial support: Access to Open Up, corporate discounts
• Connection & community: Virtual events, collaborative team activities, and opportunities for local meet-ups
• And the list goes on: Tech equipment, referral bonuses, dog-friendly HQ
• *Perks and benefits listed above are for full-time employees and may vary slightly by office location. These are just a sample- you'll learn more during the interview process.
