We acquire iconic brands and transform them with Genesis, our operating platform combining a Data Fabric, Automation Engine, proprietary tools, and shared services to modernize operations, elevate customer experience, and expand margins. With $1B+ in revenue across 13 brands, our portfolio includes Sur La Table, Backcountry, One Kings Lane, and others that serve as real-world innovation labs.\nReports to: Director of Finance and Business Intelligence\nLocation: Remote - US\nAbout The Role\nCSC Generation's portfolio spans 13 brands, each generating data across distinct ERPs, web analytics platforms, and operational systems. This role exists to bridge those sources - building trusted, reconciled data assets that business teams can act on confidently.\nAs Senior Analytics Engineer, you will own the analytical layer between raw data and business decisions: modeling data, defining metrics, building semantic layers, and partnering with stakeholders to turn ambiguous questions into clear, validated answers. Success in the first 6-12 months means delivering reconciled cross-brand metrics that stakeholders trust, establishing reusable data models in the BI layer, and demonstrating measurable acceleration of analytics workflows through AI tooling.\nThis is a lean team. You will own a lot, move fast, and make decisions with full end-to-end responsibility.\nWhat You'll Do\nWrite, review, and debug SQL and Python code - including code generated by AI tools - to build and maintain analytical data models across the portfolio.\nDesign and maintain semantic layers and reusable data models in BI tools (e.g., Looker, Tableau, Power BI) that serve as the single source of truth for business metrics.\nIntegrate and reconcile data across multiple systems and business units, aligning metric definitions and master data such as customers and products.\nValidate data rigorously, spotting results that look plausible but are wrong, and reconciling discrepancies across ERP, web analytics, and other sources.\nScope and assess technical feasibility, effort, and trade-offs when business teams bring new data requests, setting realistic expectations on delivery.\nDefine KPIs and translate business questions into analytical approaches with clear, actionable recommendations.\nLeverage AI tools (e.g., Claude Code, Codex) to accelerate analysis, coding, and documentation while critically reviewing all AI-generated outputs.\nPartner with data engineering, business stakeholders, and external vendors to deliver insights and maintain data quality across the portfolio.\nRequired Qualifications\nStrong SQL and Python skills, with the ability to write, review, and debug code efficiently, including AI-generated code.\nExperience with cloud data warehouses (e.g., BigQuery, Snowflake, Redshift) and data modeling.\nFamiliarity with ERP and web analytics data sources (e.g., NetSuite, Google Analytics).\nSolid understanding of ETL/ELT pipelines, data warehousing, and orchestration tools (e.g., Airflow).\nExperience integrating and reconciling data across multiple systems or business units, including aligning metric definitions and master data.\nRigorous approach to data validation and governance with a strong instinct for identifying inaccurate results.\nProficiency with at least one modern BI tool (e.g., Looker, Tableau, Power BI), including building semantic layers or reusable data models.\nFluency with AI coding and analysis tools, with the judgment to critically validate their outputs.\nStrong business acumen with experience defining KPIs and translating business questions into analytical approaches.\nProven ability to partner with data engineering, business stakeholders, and external vendors, setting realistic expectations on delivery.\nPreferred Qualifications\nSolid foundation in statistics and experimentation (e.g., A/B testing, hypothesis testing).\nExperience building AI-assisted workflows or enabling a team to adopt AI tools for analytics.\nExperience in e-commerce, retail, or marketing analytics (e.g., affiliate, attribution).\nWhy Join\nThe people who do best here are builders. They take ownership, move fast, and want to see the direct impact of their work.\nCross-Functional Impact: Your work touches every brand in the portfolio - the data models and metrics you build become the foundation for decisions across marketing, finance, operations, and merchandising.\nAI-First Skill Building: You will work with modern AI tooling as a core part of your workflow, not as an experiment, building skills that define the next generation of analytics engineering.\nEnd-to-End Ownership: You own the full path from raw data to trusted business metric - scoping, modeling, validation, and delivery.\n Competitive Benefits (US): Paid time off policies, 401(k) match, medical/dental/vision and a variety of supplemental policies, and employee discounts across our portfolio of brands.\nInterview Process\nRecruiter Screen - A 30-minute conversation with our recruiting team to align on the role, your background, and what you are looking for.\nHiring Manager Interview - A deeper conversation focused on your analytics engineering experience, approach to data modeling, and how you work with stakeholders.\nTechnical / Case Discussion - A working session covering SQL, data modeling, and how you approach data quality and reconciliation challenges. \nTeam member / Panel Interview - Meet the team!\n In-Person Interview - We'd like to meet you at one of our hub offices (Salt Lake City, Austin, or Toronto). Details and logistics will be arranged with your recruiter.\nReference Checks - Conducted in parallel with the final stages where possible.\nOffer - We move quickly for the right candidate.\nInterview process is subject to change. Any updates will be communicated promptly and clearly.\nPlease Note\nPart of our interview process is a mandatory in-person interview with someone on our team prior to an offer. Candidates that are unwilling or unable to meet for an in-person interview will be removed from consideration immediately. \nDue to a high volume of fraudulent applications, you must share a valid LinkedIn profile URL in the application questions below to be considered. If you do not have a LinkedIn profile, you must provide a credible reason in that field and supply alternative evidence of your professional background to verify your identity.","description_format":"text","description_chars":6428,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["E-commerce Platforms","Retail & Shop Systems"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-22T13:30:41Z"},{"event":"close","at":"2026-10-22T21:04:46Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":null,"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/csc-generation-data-lead-us","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/csc-generation-data-lead-us.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-22T22:38:44Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":7952,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-23T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":8524},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=8524"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fcsc-generation-data-lead-us"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fcsc-generation-data-lead-us"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fcsc-generation-data-lead-us"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/csc-generation-data-lead-us\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fcsc-generation-data-lead-us"}]}
