You can readthis blogpost from one of our Analytics Engineers!\n\nWHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR\nWithin the Analytics Engineering team, we are looking for like-minded people that we would like to work with. We are not looking for a specific type of professional. We all come from very different cultural and educational backgrounds. We love this diversity, and we built an inclusive culture around it. We do not judge, instead, we care about and support each other. We share a genuine curiosity about what we do, and together we get better at it every day. We look for people with this mindset before anything else. The Analytics Engineer is part of the central data platform team and reports to the Data Platform Lead. The Analytics Engineer works closely with the Data Engineers, the Data Governance Specialist, and the Data Stewards from the domains. During the Foundation and Operationalization phases, the Analytics Engineer temporarily fulfills the steward role for departments that do not yet have their own Data Steward.\nResponsibilities and tasks\n· Designing and building data transformations that convert raw data from the platform into semantic datasets and data products\n· Developing reports, dashboards, and analytical datasets in collaboration with Data Stewards and business users\n· Translating content-related questions from the business into technical data products in collaboration with the Data Steward of the relevant domain\n· Contributing to the business glossary in Microsoft Purview, particularly regarding the definitions resulting from transformations\n· Documenting datasets and data products in a manner accessible to business users\n· Performing acceptance tests on data deliveries together with the Data Owner and requester\n· Contributing to data quality incidents as described in process 3 of the TOM, particularly regarding reports arising from transformations or data products\n· Participating in the agile working method of the team\n· Contribute to code reviews and quality assurance of the work of fellow engineers\nRequirements\nWHAT YOU WILL BE DOING\nAs an Analytics Engineer, you are the one who converts raw data into something the business can actually work with.

You are hesitant to take a proactive approach and bring your ideas forward.\nYou dislike sharing knowledge by leading trainings, organizing workshops, or writing blog posts.\nYou are not located in Belgium and cannot accommodate the required on-site presence of approximately three days per week.\nWHAT IT IS LIKE TO BE A CONSULTANT AT XEBIA DATA\nAs a consultant at Xebia Data, you will have projects of varying length.
