- Collaborate cross-functionally with Harness engineering, product, and data science to ensure customer feedback informs product evolution
- Lead customer onboarding and adoption efforts for Looker-powered analytics, including training sessions, office hours, and customized dashboarding workshops.
- Develop and share reusable best-practice templates, “blueprints,” and playbooks for in-product dashboards and KPIs.
- Partner with customers during escalations, providing clear technical guidance and hands-on problem resolution.
- Stay current with BI, Looker, and cloud data engineering trends to continually improve Harness’ customer-facing analytics experience.
About you
- 2–5 years of hands-on experience in a BI Engineer, Looker Developer/Admin, or Customer Engineering role.
- Proficiency in Looker (LookML, dashboard design, performance tuning) with a strong grasp of BI principles and embedded analytics.
- Strong SQL skills with experience in data modeling, ETL design, and working across relational databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, etc.).
- Excellent troubleshooting ability across the data stack (ETL pipelines, data transformations, dashboards).
- Strong communicator with the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders and drive customer engagement.
- Comfortable leading customer calls, trainings, and escalations in a professional, consultative manner.
