Responsibilities
- Own product analytics infrastructure across the current stack: Snowflake, Superset, lightweight Python workflows, APIs, and Google Sheets
- Build and extend the processing layer in Snowflake so downstream reporting and analysis become simpler, more reusable, and less fragile
- Create self-serve analytics for Product and business stakeholders despite imperfect tooling, especially in Superset
- Design tracking for new features by defining events, properties, and measurement requirements together with Product and Engineering
- Maintain and update tracking and downstream reporting when product changes, schemas shift, or old logic breaks
- Reconcile conflicting numbers across tools, reports, and source logic and create clearer metric definitions that stakeholders can trust
- Own recurring reporting flows including product reporting, internal reporting, investor reporting, and client-facing reports/dashboards
- Automate manual reporting work wherever possible, while being pragmatic about stakeholder needs, including outputs in Google Sheets or other non-standard formats
- Run ad-hoc investigations and special analyses when dashboards are not enough, including pulling data from alternative sources or APIs when needed
- Document the existing analytics and reporting setup so knowledge is not trapped in one person’s head
- Identify tracking, schema, and instrumentation gaps proactively and work with Engineering to reduce reporting breakage over time
- Help shape the next generation of the stack, including evaluating and leading the rollout of a modern product analytics platform such as Amplitude
Skills

- Comfortable with basic scripting in Python for analytics tasks, including pandas, JSON handling, simple scripts, and API-based data pulls
- Experience designing and maintaining product tracking for features, events, properties, funnels, and retention metrics
- Ability to debug broken reporting logic when schemas, instrumentation, or source systems change
- Experience handling recurring reporting and keeping important reporting streams operational under imperfect conditions
- Comfort using Google Sheets as a stakeholder-facing output surface when needed, even if it is not the ideal long-term solution
- Strong understanding of product metrics such as feature usage, engagement, drop-off, funnels, cohorts, and retention
- Strong communication and judgment: you can clarify ambiguous requests, align on definitions, and explain trade-offs clearly
- Comfortable as a solo IC in a startup environment, including being a temporary bottleneck for important reporting while building better structure
- Experience with Amplitude, Mixpanel, PostHog, or similar product analytics tools
- Experience with version-controlling reporting queries and scripts in Git or a similar workflow
