[Remote] Senior Analytics Engineer, Product
Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. GoFan is the largest platform for high school sports in the US, reaching millions of fans, parents, coaches, and student athletes. The Senior Analytics Engineer will be responsible for transforming complex datasets into scalable data products, partnering closely with product and engineering teams to drive better decisions.
Responsibilities
- Build reusable data models, transformation layers, and pipelines that become the reliable source of truth for the Video product team while adhering to shared Data Platform standards
- Establish the data and analysis infrastructure that enables teams to run, measure, and iterate on A/B tests consistently and efficiently
- Deliver APIs, dashboards, and data products that power customer-facing experiences and provide stakeholders with trusted metrics for decision making
- Ensure event tracking, data contracts, testing, and monitoring are in place so product behavior is captured accurately and remains trustworthy over time
- Develop predictive and causal models that improve forecasting, retention, pricing, and product strategy
- Embed in the Video product org alongside PMs, designers, and engineers, using data to help shape and ship features athletes and their families actually use
- Make the models and pipelines we already have cleaner, more reliable, and more reusable, bring in new product, customer, and third-party signal we don't have today, and apply software discipline (version control, review, testing) throughout, so the team can trust the data and answer questions it currently can't
- Stand up the data and analysis layer behind A/B tests so the team can design, run, and read experiments quickly and consistently, rather than rebuilding the plumbing each time
- Partner with product and engineering on event tracking and data contracts so the behavior we care about is captured accurately and completely from the start, then build the tests and monitoring that keep it that way
- Build and own data endpoints that feed real product experiences, from spec through production
- Turn the metrics that matter into clear, reliable insights and recommendations that move the business - building the dashboards and surfaces people trust to make decisions along the way
- Develop predictive and causal models that move the business, from a pLTV model for revenue forecasting to a propensity model that targets discounts without cannibalizing revenue to causal-inference work that pinpoints which behaviors actually drive retention
Skills
- Strong SQL skills and comfort working with large analytical datasets: complex joins, window functions, and performance tuning on a cloud warehouse (we use Snowflake)
- Strong data modeling instincts and a track record of clean, documented, reusable transformation layers (SQLMesh, dbt, or equivalent)
- Production-grade Python for modeling, orchestration, and the analyses SQL alone won't cover, including the statistics to build an LTV or propensity model and reason honestly about causation versus correlation
- Experience building data products others depend on: APIs, pipelines, and dashboards, not just ad-hoc queries
- Stakeholder fluency: you translate business questions into metrics people agree on and influence decisions with what you build
- Familiarity with experimentation and A/B testing, enough to build the measurement and analysis that tests depend on
- Familiarity with AI-augmented development tools (Claude, Codex) as part of a modern workflow, and a bias for shipping where speed matters and perfect is the enemy of shipped
- Background in data modeling for analytical or operational use cases
- Experience with real-time or streaming data systems
- ML engineering basics like feature pipelines
- Sports, streaming, or B2C subscription experience
