About the Role
At KOHO, our Senior Data Analysts are strategic partners who transform raw information into actionable business impact. We're seeking an experienced analyst who thrives at the intersection of technical expertise and marketing strategy to join our data team. In this role, you'll own the lifecycle and marketing analytics domain within our fintech ecosystem, turning complex customer lifecycle data into pipelines and clear narratives that drive decision-making at all levels. The ideal candidate is both technically proficient and marketing-savvy, equally comfortable optimizing a complex SQL query as they are presenting campaign performance insights to lifecycle managers.
What You'll Do
Own the lifecycle and marketing analytics domain: integrating data requirements into project planning, collaborate with lifecycle managers and cross-functional teams, building pipelines and dashboards for campaign analysis, audience measurement, and program effectiveness
Design and optimize data models with a strong focus on performance, leveraging advanced DBT features independently to support lifecycle campaign analysis and customer journey tracking
Develop dashboards that go beyond visualization to answer critical marketing questions and support strategic decision-making around customer lifecycle programs
Analyze lifecycle campaign performance, measure program effectiveness using global control groups, and support audience creation initiatives through data-driven insights
Proactively identify trends and opportunities through deep customer lifecycle analysis, thinking beyond immediate requests to uncover additional relevant insights about customer behaviour and campaign optimization
Partner with lifecycle managers to refine requirements, offering data-driven recommendations that align with marketing priorities and maximize campaign impact
Autonomously own project planning and participate in cross-functional domain ownership for lifecycle and marketing initiatives
Mentor team members and contribute to establishing best practices within the data organization
Who You Are

You proactively identify work that should be prioritized based on business needs and collaborate effectively with stakeholders across domains
You have general marketing data knowledge including customer journey mapping, attribution modelling, retention/churn analysis, marketing mix modelling, and A/B testing methodologies

You are DBT certified
Financial industry experience
Track record of driving process improvements and implementing data governance standards
Previous experience working with Braze or similar lifecycle marketing platforms for analysis or data projects
