Role overview
Job description
Own the analytics data layer. Design and operate the ClickHouse-backed warehouse that powers operational, business, and autonomy reliability metrics, partnering with the Platform team that owns ingestion.
Define the metrics that matter. Partner with operations, product, engineering, and finance to turn fuzzy questions into trustworthy metrics: autonomy uptime, intervention rates and classifications, release-over-release reliability, mission success, fleet utilization, customer ROI.
Ship customer-facing data experiences. Build React dashboards inside our web and mobile customer analytics portals, partnering with the Applications & Connected Services team.
Power internal decision-making. Build the Grafana boards, custom React dashboards, and self-serve tooling that let teams answer their own questions and catch problems before customers do.
Be accountable for accuracy. Establish the data quality, validation, lineage, and documentation that make every number defensible. When someone asks where a metric came from, you have an answer.
Share ownership of data contracts with the Platform and Cloud software teams.
What You'll Bring
7+ years building production data systems, with meaningful time on both data modeling and analytics delivery.
Shipping experience in React. You've built analytics UIs or dashboards in a production web app and are comfortable owning the surface, not just the SQL behind it.
Deep SQL fluency and strong opinions about modeling time-series and event data. ClickHouse experience is a strong plus; comparable OLAP systems (BigQuery, Snowflake, Druid, Pinot) translate.
Comfort working alongside a platform team that owns ingestion. You have experience collaborating with the teams developing the pipeline to ensure access to high quality, actionable data.
Strong Python and at least conversational comfort in one system language (Go, Rust, TypeScript, C++).
Familiarity with semantic layers (dbt, Cube, MetricFlow, etc).
A track record of turning raw telemetry into metrics non-technical stakeholders actually use and trust. You’ve turned loose high-level ideas into actionable and reliable analytics.
High standards for data quality. You've been the person on the hook when a customer-facing number was wrong, and you've built the systems that keep it from happening again.
Bonus Points
Experience in robotics, IoT, fleet management, automotive, or any domain where diverse physical devices produce telemetry at scale.
Experience building embedded analytics inside a product (customer-facing dashboards, not just internal BI tools).
Experience shipping data experiences in React Native or other mobile frameworks.
Experience with ML-backed analytics — forecasting, anomaly detection, fleet health scoring, release regression detection.
Benefits • 100% covered medical, dental, and vision for the employee (partner, children, or family is additional) • Commuter Benefits • Flexible Spending Account (FSA) • Life Insurance • Short- and Long-Term Disability • 401k Plan • Stock Options • Collaborative work environment working alongside passionate mission-driven team!

Software Engineering Evaluation (1 hour) 4. Panel Interview (Video interviews scheduled with key stakeholders, each interview will be 30 to 60 minutes)
