About this role

FICO (NYSE: FICO)   is a leading global analytics software company, helping businesses in 100+ countries make better decisions. Join our world-class team today and fulfill your career potential!

The Opportunity

The Sr Engineer (Snowflake/dbt) is a hands-on technical role where you'll design, build, and own the data platform that powers enterprise analytics and AI at FICO. This is a high-impact IC role on a small team building modern data products on Snowflake, from dbt pipelines and semantic models to AI-ready datasets that Cortex Agents query directly. You won't be taking tickets, you'll own platforms, make architectural decisions, and deliver work that reaches SVP and C-suite stakeholders. If you want to build the future of enterprise analytics on a modern stack (Snowflake, dbt, Fivetran, Cortex AI, GitHub CI/CD) in an AI-first culture, this role is for you.

What You'll Contribute • Perform hands-on analysis, technical design, data modeling, development, testing, and deployment of Snowflake-based data solutions. Own the end-to-end lifecycle of analytics data products, from raw ingestion through dbt transformation to semantic models consumed by AI agents and BI tools.

• Design, build, and maintain dbt models, tests, and CI/CD pipelines for enterprise BI and analytics use cases. You'll own a production dbt project from day one.

• Build and publish semantic models (Snowflake semantic views) that make enterprise data consumable by AI agents, BI tools, and business users, without requiring SQL.

• Own Snowflake platform responsibilities including data architecture, query optimization, RBAC design, cost management, and warehouse administration. Experience in setting up Role-based access, Row Level Access, and Column Masking policies.

• Develop dashboards and analytics deliverables using modern visualization tools (Sigma, Power BI, Streamlit, or similar). We're evaluating Snowflake-native BI options, adaptability matters more than a specific tool.

• Partner with multiple cross-department business stakeholders and internal IT colleagues to translate business questions into data products, reports, dashboards, semantic models, or agent-queryable datasets.

• Contribute to FICO's AI-powered analytics platform by building the data foundation that Cortex Agents query, validating data quality, and expanding domain coverage.

• Troubleshoot and ensure timely resolution of production data issues and platform defects.

• Identify and apply creative and innovative approaches to resolving data modeling, integration, and delivery challenges.

• Follow and support established processes for enhancements and change requests, as well as recommend and enforce coding standards.

• Prepare and document technical designs and conduct code reviews and checkpoint meetings as needed.

• Support and mentor junior team members through code reviews, pairing, and technical guidance.

• Effectively communicate within the technical team and with business partners.

What We're Seeking • Extensive experience with Snowflake, including data modeling, query optimization, warehouse architecture, and administration. This is your primary platform.

• Strong experience with dbt, building models, tests, macros, and CI/CD pipelines. Solid understanding of dimensional modeling, star schemas, and semantic layer design.

• Best practice for implementing RBAC, Row Level Access, and Column Masking policies.

• Strong knowledge of SQL. Python experience is a plus.

• Experience building dashboards and analytics deliverables in at least one modern BI/visualization tool (Sigma, Power BI, Tableau, Streamlit, or similar). The specific tool matters less than analytical thinking and design sense.

• Fivetran experience, including experience with ELT pipelines and data integration patterns.

• Preferred experience with GitHub and GitHub Actions, or similar source code control and CI/CD systems.

• Wel versed in Analytics Engineering, Data Engineering, or related roles.

• Strong technical, critical thinking, analytical, and problem-solving skills.

• Ability to work independently as well as in a collaborative and dynamic team environment. Self-directed execution, can take a vague requirement and deliver without daily check-ins.

• Experience working within an Agile/Scrum software development environment.

• Demonstrated technical curiosity and passion for learning.

• Bachelor's in Computer Science, Data Science, or related disciplines or relevant experience in data architecture, analytics engineering, and data platform development.

• AI/LLM familiarity (Snowflake Cortex, semantic models, agents) is a plus but not required.

• Power Automate, workflow automation, or DataOps tooling experience is a plus.

• Terraform experience is a plus.

Our Offer to You • An inclusive culture strongly reflecting our core values:  Act Like an Owner, Delight Our Customers and Earn the Respect of Others.

• The opportunity to make an impact and develop professionally by leveraging your unique strengths and participating in valuable learning experiences.

• Highly competitive compensation, benefits and rewards programs that encourage you to bring your best every day and be recognized for doing so.

• An engaging, people-first work environment offering work/life balance, employee resource groups, and social events to promote interaction and camaraderie.

• The targeted base pay range for this role is: $105,000 to $165,000 with this range reflecting differences in candidate knowledge, skills and experience.
