Analytics Engineering at Monzo

We have around 60 Analytics Engineers out of roughly 300 data practitioners in total - and we have big ambitions for the discipline. Analytics Engineering is at the core of how we build our data to enable Monzo to make better and faster decisions by having a performant, scalable and high quality data warehouse. As an Analytics Engineer here you'll be working collaboratively with other disciplines like product, engineering and data science, and we run regular knowledge-sharing sessions so you’ll learn loads about everything from our data modelling principles to how banks work and effective communication.

What you’ll be working on:

The Analytics Engineering team is responsible for building downstream data models from backend services with the desire to make our Data Warehouse a genuine competitive advantage for Monzo.

• Focus on optimisation of our Data Warehouse, spotting opportunities to reduce complexity and cost.
• Help define and manage best practices for our Data Warehouse. This may include payload design of source data, logical data modelling, implementation, metadata and testing standards.
• Set standards and ways of working with data across Monzo, working collaboratively with others to make it happen.
• Take established best practices and standards defined by the team, applying them within other areas of the business.
• Investigate and effectively work with colleagues from other disciplines to monitor and improve data quality within the warehouse.
• Contribute to prioritisation of data governance issues
