Sr. Analytics Engineer (Amazon Marketplace)

​ Help Brands Win on Amazon - and Love Where You Work

Role: Sr Analytics Engineer
Location: San Diego, CA 92101 (Onsite at Symphony Towers)
Compensation Range: $120,000-$140,000 DOE

At Luminize, we help brands win, and as one of the top Amazon sellers in the US, our success is driven by data. We are looking for a Senior Analytics Engineer who is a master of business logic and data transformation.

In this role, you will be the primary architect of our data’s "Source of Truth." Rather than managing data ingestion infrastructure, you will focus your expertise on the transformation layer - using SQL and dbt to solve complex business puzzles. You will turn raw, disorganized data into clean, well-documented, and performant models that empower our entire organization to make smarter decisions.

What You'll Be Doing

• Architect the Logic – Design and develop advanced data models in dbt that transform raw data into actionable datasets for internal stakeholders and clients.
• Solve Business Problems – Partner with business leads to understand their challenges and translate complex requirements into elegant, efficient SQL code.
• Optimize Performance – Own BigQuery performance optimization from the transformation side, using smart partitioning, clustering and incremental modeling strategies to ensure cost-efficiency and speed.
• Ensure Data Integrity – Implement robust testing and documentation standards to ensure that every metric—from margins to inventory turns—is accurate and reliable.
• Data Storytelling – Create high-impact visualizations and executive dashboards that distill complex logic into clear, actionable business narratives.
• Mentor & Standardize – Lead code reviews, promote SQL best practices, and mentor team members on how to build scalable, maintainable analytics models.

What We're Looking For

• Analytical Problem Solver – You enjoy the "puzzle" of data. You can take a vague business question and structure a logic-based solution.
• SQL Mastery – You are an expert in SQL. You understand window functions, CTEs, and how to write highly optimized queries for large-scale data environments.
• dbt Expertise – Proven experience using dbt (Data Build Tool) to manage transformations, snapshots, and testing frameworks.
• Data Modeling Experience – A strong understanding of dimensional modeling (Star Schema) and how to structure data for self-service analytics.
• Modern Data Stack Proficiency – Experience working within cloud data warehouses like Google BigQuery , Snowflake, or Databricks.
• Communication – Ability to explain technical logic to non-technical audiences, including C-level executives and brand managers.

Preferred Qualifications (The "Pluses")

• eCommerce Experience: Familiarity with marketplace data, SKU management, or advertising metrics (ACOS/TACOS).
• Financial Literacy: Understanding of COGS, profit margins, and financial reconciliation
• Inventory Knowledge: Experience modeling demand forecasting or supply chain data.

Benefits & Perks
Our people are our #1 priority. Our benefits include:

• Multiple medical plan options through Anthem Blue Cross
• Dental & vision insurance (including orthodontia and annual exams)
• Pet benefit program with savings on vet care, products, and services
• Paid vacation (accruing up to 120+ hours/year with rollover and cap)
• Paid holidays annually
• Coverage for spouses/domestic partners and dependents under 26
• Benefits begin on the first of the month after your hire date

Compensation Transparency
We've listed a broad base salary range of $120,000-$140,000/year to account for varying levels of experience, skill sets, and leadership depth in eCommerce and financial analytics. Where you land in the range will depend on how your background aligns with this role and your specific expertise.

We're committed to compensating based on value and impact, not just years on paper, and we're happy to have open conversations throughout the process.

Growth & Career Opportunities at Luminize
At Luminize, growth isn't just something we drive for our clients; it's our mindset and a big priority for our people.

We offer clear career paths and leveling guidelines so you always know where you stand, what's next, and what skills and experience you need to get there. From day one, you'll have visibility into advancement opportunities and what it takes to grow into leadership, specialization, or other cross-functional roles.

We're proud of our strong track record of promoting from within. Many of our team leads and managers started in independent contributor roles and grew by consistently showing initiative, curiosity, and impact. We only hire externally when needed, because we believe the best future leaders are often already here.

You'll also benefit from:

• Mentorship from experienced managers during 1:1s and annual performance reviews
• Cross-functional exposure to departments including content, brand management, software, supply chain, operations, and catalog
• Learning resources, including Udemy course access, and additional training programs and courses.
• A culture that encourages asking questions, trying new things, and leveling up together

If you're excited to take ownership and grow, both in your craft and your career, you'll be in good company here.
