Lime is hiring a Sr. Analytics Engineer to join our Corp Tech Data and Integrations Team. You will report to Lime’s Corp Tech Analytics Manager in the Enterprise Engineering space and partner closely with Finance & Accounting leadership to design systems with the highest levels of governance — ensuring our business performance and financial reporting data can withstand rigorous external audits.

This is a remote position with a requirement for candidates to reside in Canada to maintain effective collaboration across teams.

What You’ll Do:

Design the long-term technical vision for Lime’s Corporate Data Warehouse to build a robust, scalable Finance-grade semantic layer that supports Finance, Accounting, and internal Corp Tech analytics initiatives.

Own the Finance data modeling strategy across core systems, including Net Suite and sub-ledgers, ensuring consistent definitions for key measures (revenue, COGS, asset balances, depreciation, accruals, close KPIs).

Define and enforce standards for dbt modeling, SQL style, CI/CD workflows, documentation, and automated testing — so the entire team operates with audit-grade precision.

Build reconciliation-ready datasets that support month-end close and audits: control totals, roll-forwards, sub-ledger to GL tie-outs, variance explanations, and transparent lineage.

Enforce strict data governance and controls: data ownership, glossary, lineage, change management, access patterns, and automated data quality validation aligned to Finance expectations.

Partner with Finance stakeholders (Accounting/FP&A/Finance Ops) to ensure analytics solutions support month-end close workflows, audit evidence needs, and stakeholder trust.

Evaluate and integrate orchestration & automation capabilities that reduce manual intervention and operational risk across ingestion → transformation → reporting pipelines (including alerting/observability and SLA monitoring).

Mentor Analytics Engineers on the team through design review, code review, and pairing — raising the bar on modeling, testing, and operational rigor.

About You:

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Data Engineering, or a related technical field.

5+ years in analytics engineering / data warehousing, with a track record of designing architectures that scale in fast-growing environments.

Strong backend instincts: you think in data contracts, idempotency, late-arriving data, reprocessing, control totals, and lineage — not just dashboards.

Demonstrated ability to influence technical and non-technical stakeholders at the Director/VP level, navigating conflicting requirements to land the best long-term solution.

Technical Requirements

Cloud & warehouse: 5+ years building and scaling data stacks on cloud providers (AWS preferred), including deep production experience with Snowflake — warehouse sizing, clustering, incremental strategies, query profiling, and cost/performance trade-offs.

SQL & Python: expert-level, high-performance SQL, plus strong Python for transformation, tooling, and automation. You can develop and debug complex transformations and explain why they perform the way they do.

dbt: deep expertise (macros, packages, performance patterns, project structuring) and a clear philosophy on how to run large-scale dbt programs with maintainability and reliability.

Data modeling: dimensional modeling, ELT pipeline design, and semantic layer design for…
