Data Analytics Engineer

As Data Analytics Engineer at Beauty Pie, you will be responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining robust data pipelines and analytics solutions that empower stakeholders to self-serve where possible. You will collaborate closely with data analysts and business stakeholders to ensure the availability and accuracy of data needed for decision-making. Your expertise in data engineering, analytics, and software development will be crucial in driving our data strategy forward.

Beauty Pie is a subscription-based e-commerce retailer, and we have recently migrated our storefront to Shopify. This is an exciting time to join! You will play a key role in building out and maturing our data platform within the Shopify ecosystem, integrating data from Shopify and its surrounding ecosystem of tools and platforms.

We move fast, but deliberately. We'd rather pilot something quickly and learn from it than spend weeks perfecting a plan. If you thrive in an environment where priorities shift, new ideas are tested rapidly, and you're trusted to use your judgement, you'll fit right in.

We are an AI-first team. We actively use AI tools such as Claude Code to accelerate our development workflow, and we expect you to embrace AI-assisted development as a core part of how you work. Equally important is your ability to be the human in the loop by critically reviewing AI-generated output, applying sound engineering judgement, and knowing when to trust vs challenge.
