A typical day in the life of an Analytics Engineer at CarePay 

You start the day by catching up on the latest analytics engineering news and tools. Then you will peer review code of your team members and point out SQL improvements. At 11AM you participate in our standup and give an update on your tasks and their dependencies.  Before lunch you take some time to pair-program with a teammate on a new technology you always wanted to wrap your head around.

In the afternoon, you will conduct a workshop with our payments team to gather data requirements for their largest pain points and inspire them with your own ideas. Based on the outcomes you will spend the rest of the day building the new loans data model in SQL. You will end the day by scripting a new dbt macro together with one of our data engineers.
