As a Senior Analytics Engineer at Heineken, you'll design and manage a trusted data layer for analytics across the AME region. This role is perfect for someone who enjoys bridging the gap between business needs and data engineering.
Heineken is looking for a Senior Analytics Engineer to join their team in Johannesburg. In this role, you will design and maintain a gold data layer that serves as the single source of truth for analytics across the AME region. Your work will involve translating business needs into reusable data models, ensuring that analytics teams and business users have access to reliable and well-structured datasets. You will also play a key role in enforcing data governance and quality standards, making sure that the data is accurate and consistent across the organization.
Your daily responsibilities will include collaborating with business stakeholders to understand their data needs and defining key performance indicators (KPIs) that align with business goals. You will work closely with data engineering teams to ensure that upstream data is structured and reliable for downstream analytics. Additionally, you will be responsible for monitoring and optimizing the performance of the data layers, ensuring that they are efficient and effective for analytics consumption.
This role is ideal for someone with at least five years of experience in analytics engineering or data modelling, particularly with strong skills in SQL and cloud data platforms like Databricks.
