Analytics Engineer
TEKsystems, San Francisco, CA, United States
We are seeking an Analytics Engineer to support the development of a semantic modeling and metrics layer powering analytics across Data Cloud and Tableau. This role sits between Data Engineering and Product Analytics and focuses on enabling trusted, reusable, and business‑ready data for dashboards, AI insights, and downstream analytics.
This role is not primarily dashboard‑focused. Instead, you will contribute to the design and maintenance of semantic models, metric definitions, and relationships that allow product and business teams to self‑serve analytics with confidence.
Responsibilities
Contribute to the design and maintenance of semantic models and governed metrics
Translate curated data objects into business‑ready dimensions and KPIs
Help define and document metric logic, calculations, and definitions for reuse
Support consistency of metrics across dashboards and analytics use cases
Assist with configuring and validating relationships between modeled data objects
Review and validate AI‑suggested or automated relationships for analytical correctness
Collaborate with data and product teams to align on modeling conventions
Support governance practices for the semantic layer to ensure data consistency and reuse
Help document business logic, metric definitions, and modeling patterns
Partner with Product, Analytics, and Engineering teams as requirements evolve
Learn and stay current with Tableau‑related modeling and semantic capabilities
Follow and contribute to best practices as analytics platforms evolve
Must Haves
Experience with Tableau, including work with shared or published data sources
Understanding of semantic layer concepts (centralized definitions, reusable metrics, consistent logic)
Familiarity working with data modeling concepts beyond visualization (metrics, joins, business logic)
Strong data literacy and curiosity about how analytics impacts business decisions
Nice to Have
Experience with Salesforce Data Cloud (Data 360) concepts, including:
Data Model Objects (DMOs)
Data Lake Objects (DLOs)
Calculated Insights (CIOs)
Familiarity with Tableau Semantics, Tableau Next concepts, or semantic modeling tools
Interest in governed analytics or AI‑assisted modeling platforms
Background as an Analytics Engineer (dbt‑style mindset), NOT just a dashboard developer
Job Type & Location
This is a Contract position based out of San Francisco, CA.
Pay & Benefits
The pay range for this position is $75.00 - $85.00/hr.
Benefits available for this temporary role may include the following: Medical, dental & vision; Critical Illness, Accident, and Hospital; 401(k) Retirement Plan; Life Insurance; Short and long‑term disability; Health Spending Account (HSA); Transportation benefits; Employee Assistance Program; Time Off/Leave (PTO, Vacation or Sick Leave).
