About 173tech

Our mission is simple, we turn data into value.

We are a modern analytics agency that works with some of the fastest growing businesses and top tier VCs globally. We help our clients and their portfolio companies build efficient, scalable and cost-effective data pipelines, high-ROI data use cases and world-class analytics teams. Our founding team previously built analytics at Bumble, from the beginning to $3 billion exit within 5 years.

As we enter into our key phase of growth, we are looking for a highly driven data analyst that is, like the rest of the team, a perfect blend of technical capabilities and business focus. You will work on an exciting range of projects, use a variety of data tools, and have a direct impact on our clients' products and customers. You will learn and grow with our team and our clients.

What You Will Do

This is a great opportunity for anyone keen to build a broad knowledge of analytics and its immediate impact on company growth and profitability. You will be working with some of the most inspirational teams on a wide range of projects. There are no 2 clients alike but here are some of the common tasks:

Strategy:

• Act as a strategic advisor for clients and help turn insights into action that drives business performance.
• Gather business requirements and build standardised KPI dictionaries with both business and technical definitions.
• Advise clients on high-ROI data use cases and develop implementation roadmaps to realise value quickly.

Analytics Engineering:

• Design and build scalable, high-integrity data models using SQL and modern tooling (e.g. dbt).
• Implement testing to ensure trust and integrity of the data pipelines.
• Collaborate with the data engineering team on the deployment and maintenance of data architectures.

Analytics & Insights:

• Deliver automated dashboards using various visualisation tools.
• In-depth analyses on a wide range of topics around customer behaviours.

• Client Communication & Leadership
• Manage day-to-day client communications and guide them along their analytics journey.
• Lead data projects from scoping to delivery.
• Mentor junior analysts and help improve internal delivery processes.
