What you will do
As our new Senior AI Engineer, you will join our Strategic Analytics team and help build AI- and automation-powered solutions that improve how teams access, understand, and act on data. This role sits at the intersection of analytics engineering, applied AI, and business enablement, and is especially focused on supporting financial reporting, operational visibility, and strategic decision-making.
You will work closely with analytics, data warehousing, and finance stakeholders to create scalable products and workflows on top of Lighthouse's modern data stack. This is an opportunity for someone who combines strong SQL and data modeling fundamentals with genuine curiosity for AI, a critical mindset around how it is used, and excitement for applying it in a practical, high-impact business environment.
In practice, this means taking on projects like building an agent or chat interface that allows our CFO and finance analysts to query financial performance data directly, moving away from manual, reactive analysis toward a self-serve, proactive model. You will bridge the gap between sales performance data and financial reporting, identify and explain revenue fluctuations at month-end close, and automate board reporting workflows that today rely heavily on manual effort. If you're excited by the idea of owning that entire pipeline (from the data model to the AI layer to the stakeholder) this role is for you.
Where you will have impact
- Architect and own feature pipelines end-to-end in dbt on BigQuery, ensuring reproducibility, versioning, and stability for our models.
- To productionise ML data products by designing and maintaining the infrastructure that connects feature pipelines to model training, evaluation, and output.
- Set the technical standard for AI and ML engineering within our data platform by defining and documenting design patterns and best practices.
- Partner with senior stakeholders across Data & Analytics, Business Operations, and Finance to translate ambiguous business problems into clear, measurable AI and ML data solutions.
- Build AI-powered products from scratch, including agentic chat interfaces, anomaly detection pipelines, and automated reporting workflows, that allow finance stakeholders to self-serve insights that today require significant manual effort from the data team.
Mentor and educate Analytics Engineers, providing expert code reviews and sharing your expertise in AI and ML engineering practices. - Drive data governance within your domain, ensuring quality expectations are met and data incidents are managed from triage to resolution.
About our team
You will be a key member of our Strategic Analytics team, which is part of the broader Data Analytics organization. Our team is at the forefront of leveraging data to drive strategic decisions across Lighthouse. We partner closely with the finance department and CFO to solve real business problems: automating month-end close reporting, surfacing revenue leakage between sales and financial performance, and building the agentic tooling that will allow finance leadership to move from reactive analysis to proactive decision-making. We are a team of innovators who set the technical bar for how AI and ML are engineered, and we are passionate about building the foundations that will power the company's future AI systems.
What's in it for you?
- Flexible working environment: Work from home or at one of our global offices.
