Data Analyst / BI Engineer

London, England
Full-time

About the role

We're looking for a Data Analyst / BI Engineer to join Magentic's Forward Deployed Engineering team. You'll be embedded at a critical point — working directly with customers during pilots and onboarding, turning complex, messy data into the insights that make our AI procurement solution sing. This isn't a build-dashboards-on-request role. You'll be working on real problems with real stakes, using modern data tooling — including LLMs — to move fast without sacrificing rigour. You'll be joining a small but exceptional team with backgrounds from Revolut, OpenAI, Meta, NASA and McKinsey. We're backed by Sequoia Capital and chasing a $3tn market opportunity.

What You'll Do Partner with Forward Deployed Engineers to design and execute complex analyses during customer pilots and onboarding Turn ambiguous, real-world data into clear, actionable outputs for both technical and commercial audiences Use LLM-based techniques as a native part of your analysis workflow — not as a curiosity, but as a tool Work with data platform tooling built by our data platform team; potential to grow into building platform components yourself Communicate findings clearly to engineers and business stakeholders alike You Might Be a Great Fit if You Have 2+ years of experience in a data analyst, data engineer, or BI engineer role Are fluent in Python and SQL Have hands-on experience integrating LLM-based steps into a data analysis or pipeline workflow Can work with messy, real-world data and still ship something clean and useful Are a strong communicator with commercial understanding — you're comfortable explaining what you found and why it matters Thrive in fast-paced environments where speed and quality both matter

Bonus Points Experience with dbt or similar SQL-based transformation tools Familiarity with cloud data storage (Azure Blob Storage, S3, or GCS) Experience building or contributing to data platform infrastructure Familiarity with a data orchestration tool (Dagster, Airflow, Prefect, or similar) Familiarity with supply-chain, procurement, or manufacturing domains.
