Overview

At Brooklyn Data, Senior Analytics Engineers lead the design and implementation of scalable data models and pipelines that turn complex data into clear, trustworthy insights. They work closely with functional leadership and data solutions partners to shape data architectures and modeling strategies that align with client goals and deliver measurable impact. Because our clients are mostly US-based organizations, we look for the ability to communicate with professional proficiency in English, verbally and in writing.
