Your role

You answer the company's most important business questions with data and support management, sales, marketing and product in their decisions. You are the central point of contact for analytical questions in the company.

Key responsibilities

  • Deliver structural analyses (funnel analysis, cohort retention, forecast, segment analysis) that change business decisions.

  • Proactively check data quality, investigate anomalies and address data-quality problems with the engineering team.

  • Desired: familiarity with Python or R for ad-hoc analyses; experience with dbt or an equivalent; experience at an SMB or scale-up (high autonomy and stakeholder variety); industry context close to [our industry].
  • Disqualifying: no independent SQL practice; a pure reporting posture with no business recommendation; refusal to work within business functions (sitting in on sales calls, joining marketing reviews); a desire for exclusively modeling- or ML-focused work.

What we offer

  • Gross annual compensation: [45 to 68] k€ depending on experience. No structural variable component.
  • Model: [full-time, hybrid 2 to 3 days / week on-site, based in [city] / remote-friendly].
  • Benefits: [company pension, bike leasing, vacation days, home-office policy, hardware budget, professional-development and conference budget].
  • Stack: [to be completed: data warehouse (Snowflake, BigQuery, Postgres), BI tool (Looker, Tableau, Power BI, Metabase), transformation layer (dbt), analytics tools (Mixpanel, Amplitude, GA4), Python or R for ad-hoc analyses].
