About the Role

The Senior Analytics Engineer will help build the reusable analytical models, tools, and systems to power decisions across Temporal. This role reports to the Director of Data Engineering and Analytics. Ultimately, your goal is to make it possible for every Temporal employee to produce first-class analyses.

You will work across multiple business domains, including Product, GTM, Finance, and Engineering to deeply understand their needs and build solutions that enable both people and agents to reliably answer their analytical questions. You will architect and implement the data layer that sits between our landed source data and our various user interfaces via canonical entities, shared dimensions, metric definitions, data marts, etc. That includes making core concepts such as accounts, namespaces, activation, billable usage, and revenue consistent wherever they are used.

You will take direct ownership of work that is currently distributed across the Data Engineering and Analytics team, including data modeling, data mart and Omni Topic creation, and enablement. Along with helping to align our business logic across marts and dashboards, you will create clear technical governance and controls as you work to empower stakeholders across the business.

You will work closely with Data Platform and Trust on orchestration, deployment, observability, access controls, performance, reliability, and cost. You will partner with Data Science and Applied AI on feature tables, model outputs, model consumption, and monitoring. You will work with business functions on source system hygiene, prioritization of tasks, and validating business meaning of shared metrics.

The ideal candidate possesses strong SQL skills, sound business acumen, and deep expertise in building semantic products gained through years of experience across different tools, modeling frameworks, and subject areas. The candidate is comfortable with ambiguous business questions, knows when to build a reusable data product vs modify an existing one, and how to deliver practical solutions in keeping with an overall governance framework and strategy. You will be hands-on writing code, tests, documentation, and performing technical reviews.

What You’ll Do

- Build and maintain reusable analytical data products across Temporal's business domains.

- Define canonical entities, shared dimensions, purpose-built marts, metric components, explicit grains, keys, lineage, and history behavior.

- Design and maintain core parts of the Omni semantic layer and certified Topics, with clear definitions for measures, dimensions, joins, and time handling.

- Establish and improve standards for modeling, metric implementation, documentation, and change management. Build automated checks for freshness, completeness, uniqueness, and relationships between datasets, and make failures visible to the teams that own them.

- Reduce duplicated or conflicting logic across source tables, marts, Omni workbooks, dashboards, notebooks, and analytical agents.
