What you'll do

  • Own the Data team's priorities, intake, and triage; run team rituals including planning, reviews, and workshops
  • Do hands-on analytics work: deep-dives, dashboards, business cases, and recommendations that change decisions, including data inputs for the weekly report and Monthly Business Review
  • Partner with Product Managers to embed tracking and success metrics into PRDs, and align the data roadmap with product roadmaps
  • Translate business questions from stakeholders into clear specs, metric definitions, and acceptance criteria the team can deliver
  • Act as the quality gate on analyses, dashboards, and datasets before they reach internal or external stakeholders
  • Coach and develop the Data team, levelling up team members on problem framing, communication, and stakeholder management
  • Partner with the Data Tech Lead to co-own the roadmap, making sure infrastructure work serves real business needs

What we're looking for

  • 6+ years in data analytics, analytics engineering, or data product work, with experience leading people or setting priorities for a small team
  • Expert SQL: you can pull, validate, and challenge data independently, without relying on engineers
  • Hands-on experience building dashboards and reports in BI tools (Omni, Superset, or similar)
  • Strong business and product mindset: you use data to find revenue, pricing, or growth opportunities, not just to answer questions
  • Enough technical depth to be a real partner to data engineers; comfortable discussing warehouse design, pipelines, data models, and trade-offs
  • Proven stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to work across product, engineering, finance, BD, and C-suite
  • Strong data storytelling: you adapt the message to technical and non-technical audiences
  • Crypto/DeFi domain experience: ideally in a data role at a crypto company, or demonstrable deep understanding of the space (cross-chain, DEX aggregation, bridges, or wallets)
  • Comfortable in a fast-paced, high-growth environment where priorities shift and you'll need to build some of the playbook as you go

Nice to have

  • Python
  • Dbt and dimensional modelling
  • Semantic layer design and metric definition management
  • AI-readiness: structuring data, metrics, and documentation so they can be reliably consumed by LLMs and agents
  • ML modelling experience (forecasting, classification, anomaly detection)
  • On-chain data and tooling (e.g. Dune Analytics)
  • Exposure to streaming data (e.g. Kafka)
