About Marketing Engineers
At Marketing Engineers, we guide marketing teams at the technical frontier. Our mission is to provide brands with technical capabilities they never had access to before, cutting through the noise to drive real growth. We are a boutique agency that prioritizes quality over quantity. Our goal isn’t to be the biggest, but to operate among the best, innovate the digital marketing and IT industry, and have a ton of fun while we’re doing it.
We’re now looking for a team member to help us build the next phase of our company.
Profile: Analytics Engineer
This is a pivotal senior role for a professional who thrives on executing highly technical implementations while being sensitive to clients’ business context and accommodating to their level of expertise. The ideal candidate is a natural organizer and people-person who complements our existing deep technical expertise. They will take ownership of client projects, mentor our talented junior and medior team members, and play a key role in building the operational foundation of our company.
Primary focus & responsibilities
The role is built on three core pillars:
-
Client & Project Leadership:
- Act as the trusted advisor for a portfolio of clients, managing expectations and ensuring project success from start to finish.
- Lead the execution of client-tailored, high-value projects, such as:
- Server-side Google Tag Manager configurations
- Advanced integrations of tracking systems
- State-of-the-art setups of customized data warehouses focusing on scalability and security
- Confidently manage relationships with both large enterprise stakeholders and agile SME teams, with the opportunity to specialize in a client type that best suits your preference.
-
Team Mentorship & Culture:
- Serve as a mentor and guide for our junior and medior team members, fostering their professional and personal growth.
- Coach the team on soft skills and client communication, while taking the lead in project management to ensure clarity and success.
- Bring a positive, can-do, and social energy that strengthens not only our collaborative project work but also our internal team culture and atmosphere.
- Act as a supportive leader who the team feels comfortable approaching for guidance on your areas of expertise and for feedback on the client projects you work on together.
-
Operational Partnership:
- Co-pilot the business by building our operational foundation. You will take the lead in professionalizing our operations—designing the processes, structure, and systems that will allow us to scale our impact without sacrificing quality.
Experience & skillset
- Technical Experience & Mindset:
- Required Fundamentals: You have proven, hands-on experience with at least one major cloud infrastructure platform such as Google Cloud Platform (GCP) or Amazon Web Services (AWS) and you would not hesitate to wield SQL and Python as your primary weapons to answer client’s questions. You possess a fundamental understanding of computer systems and have a firm grasp on database systems. But most importantly, you are not afraid to learn about and dive into new technologies and love to overcome challenges that you inevitably encounter along the way.
- Valued Expertise (A Plus): While not required, experience with big data systems commonly used for marketing data such BigQuery or Azure Synapse would be a significant advantage. Previous experience with analytics platforms such as Google Analytics 4 and PostHog would also be a huge plus, just as previous experience with APIs of major ad platforms such as Google Ads API or LinkedIn Advertising API.
Cultural fit & personal attributes
You are the right person for us if:
- You have an Entrepreneurial Drive: You’re excited by the prospect of building something from the ground up. You are comfortable with ambiguity, meaning you can define the path forward when it’s not yet paved and are energized by creating structure where it’s needed.
- You are a Proactive Organizer & Planner: You bring structure and clarity to a dynamic environment. You will be a proactive counterpart to the founder’s fast-paced and responsive leadership style, ensuring that important, long-term initiatives receive the consistent attention they need to move forward.
- You are an Empathetic People Leader: You genuinely enjoy seeing others succeed and naturally take the lead in a supportive way. You get energy from working with a young, ambitious team and helping them thrive.
- You are a Direct & Honest Communicator: You are approachable, open, and communicate without corporate jargon. You can balance an informal, personal style with the ability to be more formal and directive when a situation requires it.
- You are Humbly Confident: You are confident in your leadership and project management skills but have no ego about consulting technical experts on the team when they know more about a specific topic.
The Offer: a stake in our success
We believe that the leaders who build the company should share in its success. We offer a fully transparent compensation model that includes a clear path to employee participation and profit-sharing, directly rewarding you for the growth you help create. This isn’t just a senior role; it’s an opportunity to have a real stake in the outcome.
- Flexibility: We are open to full-time, part-time (minimum 3 days/week), or even a long-term contracting arrangement. The key is commitment and a shared vision.
