The AI & DX (Developer Experience) Analytics team exists to measure and improve Block's developer experience and investment in AI. We turn raw engineering signals (agent session data, pull request and CI activity, and AI spend) into reporting and analysis that shape leadership's AI investment decisions, and drive improvement in AI ROI and developer experience. Your work will be the trusted source of truth that engineers and executives use to decide where AI investment is working and where to redirect it.

We're hiring a Senior Analytics Engineer to own parts of that pipeline end to end. This is a broad, high-visibility role with a lot of white space: you will instrument new telemetry at the source and build production pipelines that turn it into governed data, then turn that governed data into executive-facing reporting and the analysis that surfaces concrete opportunities to improve AI ROI and developer experience.

You'll also help pioneer one of the most consequential open problems in the industry right now: measuring the productivity impact of an increasingly AI- and agent-augmented engineering workforce, where there is no textbook answer and real room to set the standard. You'll define new metrics and craft the visual narrative — the charts, dashboards, and presentation materials — that make them land with an executive audience.

AI-first workflows are central to how this team operates and critical to succeeding in this role: using AI coding agents is a default part of how you build and maintain pipelines and dashboards. You'll excel in this role if you're as comfortable defining and visualizing a brand new executive-facing metric from a messy signal as you are debugging why a pipeline silently stalled overnight.

Instrumentation & Telemetry:

• Instrument and extend the raw telemetry captured about AI usage, code changes, CI/CD activity, and spend — building new data capture, not only transforming what already exists. This is core to the role, as evolving AI tools and increased AI adoption constantly creates new signals that need to be captured.
• Partner with data engineers on production ETL pipelines that land that telemetry into governed tables, with the freshness monitoring, backfills, and alerting that keep it trustworthy, rather than a one-off script.
• Define new metrics out of ambiguous or evolving signals, and earn stakeholder trust in a new number by validating and reconciling it until it holds up.
• Build and ship the executive-facing dashboards and visualizations that turn governed metrics into decision-ready reporting — with the polish and precision a room of executives will scrutinize.
• Run the analysis that a new chart or metric needs and anticipate questions that an executive audience will ask, then bring senior stakeholders a recommendation, not just a number, and defend the methodology behind both.
• Translate complex, technical findings into a clear narrative: the headline chart and the one sentence that makes an executive act on it.

Across both:

• Use AI coding agents as a default part of how you write,…
