This role sits at the intersection of analytics and engineering - ideal for someone who’s comfortable writing production-grade SQL, building modular dbt models, and shaping how data is organized for analysis.

- Implement data validation and quality checks to ensure trustworthy datasets
- Mentor analysts on SQL, dbt workflows, and data modeling best practices
- Collaborate with key business partners (e.g., Product, Underwriting, Claims) to ensure analytical outputs meet needs
What We’re Looking For
- 4–6+ years of experience in data analytics or analytics engineering, preferably within Property & Casualty (P&C) insurance or another data-rich industry
- Expert-level SQL skills and hands-on experience building dbt projects (macros, testing, documentation, Jinja)
- Familiarity with Databricks SQL or similar cloud data platforms
- Strong understanding of medallion architecture and experience shaping gold/platinum data models
- Experience with Git-based workflows, CI/CD, and collaborative development using dbt Cloud or dbt Core
- Ability to work independently and deliver high-quality data models with minimal supervision
- Solid communication skills and a willingness to partner with business teams when needed
Bonus Points For
