Analytics Engineer II

Are you passionate about turning complex data into intelligent, business-ready analytics products? Do you thrive at the intersection of data engineering, visualization, and AI? If you love building things that matter — at scale, across borders, and with cutting-edge technology — this could be your next great move.

About the Role

As an Analytics Engineer II, you will be at the heart of building modern analytics products that power smarter decisions across a global reinsurance business. From designing scalable data pipelines and semantic models to delivering interactive Power BI solutions and AI-enabled applications, you will work across the full analytics lifecycle. Leveraging platforms such as Palantir Foundry and Microsoft Power BI, you will translate complex business challenges into elegant, high-impact analytical solutions — and you'll do it with the help of the latest AI-assisted development tools.

 

This is a role for someone who is curious, technically strong, and excited about applying emerging technologies to real-world problems.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and develop enterprise Power BI semantic models, dashboards, and analytics applications that deliver clear, actionable insights to business stakeholders

• Build and maintain scalable data pipelines and transformation logic using Python/PySpark, SQL, and modern analytics platforms such as Palantir Foundry

• Partner with business stakeholders to deeply understand business problems and translate them into well-architected analytical products

• Architect analytics solutions that are performant, reusable, maintainable, and built to scale across a global data landscape

• Leverage AI technologies — including Palantir AIP and generative AI — to enhance analytics solutions, automate workflows, and improve user experiences where appropriate

• Utilize AI-assisted development tools such as GitHub Copilot or equivalent to improve development efficiency while upholding high engineering standards

• Collaborate within a globally distributed development team to deliver robust, scalable data products in an agile environment

You are energized by the challenge of solving complex, large-scale analytics problems using leading-edge technologies. You have a proven ability to pick up new tools and platforms quickly — especially in the areas of AI, modern analytics, and cloud-native data engineering. You are a self-starter who takes ownership of solutions from concept to delivery, and you bring strong communication skills that allow you to bridge the gap between technical teams and business stakeholders. You are comfortable working across time zones and cultures, and you bring a collaborative, growth-oriented mindset to everything you do.

We are looking for candidates who meet these requirements:

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent in Computer Science, Data Science, or a related discipline

• 3–5 years of experience working with large-scale software systems, with a focus on visualization tools such as Microsoft BI Suite, Azure Databricks, or Oracle

• Strong enterprise Power BI expertise, including semantic model design, DAX, Power Query, and visualization best practices

• Strong SQL skills with demonstrated experience designing performant queries and data models

• Hands-on experience developing reusable ETL/ELT pipelines

• Proficiency in Python/PySpark for data engineering, analytics, or automation tasks

• Solid understanding of dimensional modeling and data warehousing concepts

• Experience with Git and collaborative software development practices

• Familiarity with Agile software delivery methodologies

These are additional nice to haves:

• Experience with modern analytics platforms such as Palantir Foundry, Databricks, Microsoft Fabric, or Snowflake

• Experience building data pipelines within Palantir Foundry

• Experience using Palantir AIP or other AI/LLM frameworks to develop intelligent business applications
