Job description

Overview

We’re looking for a Senior Analytics Engineer to join Seismic’s Corporate Data & Analytics team and own our finance data domain. In this role, you’ll partner with our Finance team to model, maintain, and scale the data assets that power financial reporting, planning, and decision-making across the business. You’ll serve as the technical bridge between Finance stakeholders and the data platform, translating business requirements into clean, reliable, well‑documented data models that analysts and leaders can trust.

Who you are:

• 5+ years of analytics engineering or data analyst experience, with at least 3 years hands‑on with dbt (Core or Cloud) – building and maintaining multi‑layer model architectures in a production environment.
• Direct experience modeling financial data and working with Finance as a business stakeholder.
• Demonstrated experience partnering directly with business‑facing teams on end‑to‑end analytics projects, from requirements gathering through delivery.
• Hands‑on experience with a finance SaaS platform such as NetSuite (or similar), including modeling financial data and surfacing it from source systems to the reporting layer.
• Working knowledge of Salesforce quote‑to‑cash data structures.
• Proficiency with a cloud data warehouse, experience with Snowflake, BigQuery, or other data warehouse systems required.
• Expert SQL skills – comfortable writing complex transformations, window functions, and CTEs.
• Experience with Git/GitHub – branching, pull requests, code review workflows.
• Familiarity with layered dimensional modeling concepts – understanding of how to separate raw data normalization from business logic from reporting‑ready models.

Nice to Have

• Experience building data models for BI tools such as Tableau, Looker, or Power BI.
• Familiarity with agile delivery in a cross‑functional engineering environment.
• Experience with financial planning tools such as Workday Adaptive Planning.
• Experience with integration/automation tools such as Workato.
• Background as a data analyst or in a hybrid analyst/engineer role, understanding what it means to be the consumer of the data they build.

What you’ll be doing:

• Collaborate with Finance stakeholders to understand requirements, score work, and deliver data models that support financial reporting, revenue recognition, expense tracking, and planning.
• Partner with FP&A, Accounting, and Systems teams to build and maintain trusted dbt models for bookings, ARR, and quote‑level revenue data (e.g., Salesforce CPQ price‑per‑seat, discounting, and booking calculations), ensuring metrics reconcile across Finance systems and downstream reporting.
• Build and maintain dbt models across the full modeling stack following layered dimensional modeling practices.
• Work directly with data analysts to evaluate reporting requirements and translate business logic into reusable, well‑tested data models.
• Collaborate with analytics engineers and data engineers on data ingestion, pipeline reliability, and source system changes.
• Apply software engineering best practices to analytics code: version control (GitHub), testing, CI/CD, and documentation.
• Write and maintain clear dbt documentation (model descriptions, column‑level doc blocks, and lineage) so the data layer is self‑service friendly.
• Actively participate in project scoping, sprint planning, and cross‑functional delivery using agile workflows.
