Data Analyst  

A Little Bit About Us

Shippit is Australia’s best connected shipping software. Logistics infrastructure is a sophisticated beast, and we’re not only improving the experience for everyone involved, we’re impacting the planet in a positive manner: deliveries made through our platform are already 100% Carbon Neutral. Proudly Australian founded, we’re truly global in our approach and have the benefit of being a free moving scaleup with the security of impacting a growing industry that needs some love and attention.

The Role

Data is core to how Shippit operates. Every scan and movement a parcel makes is a snippet of data. As a result, we have the opportunity to make delivery experiences faster, more delightful, and more environmentally friendly. The Data Squad at Shippit is a close-knit team that believes in constant, never-ending improvement–and we’d love to have you along for the ride. Some of our stack includes Snowflake, dbt, Estuary, Looker, and Rudderstack, and we’re constantly looking for ways to improve our practice and the lives of our internal and external customers.

We are looking for a Data Analyst in Indonesia to play a key role in building the infrastructure and capabilities needed to scale AI, machine learning, and data-driven applications - including the development of new data products. At the same time, the role strengthens our partnership with the Commercial Shipping team, equipping them with insights and simulations to enhance customer relationships, support carrier integration decisions, forecast performance against budget, and identify logistics network issues early.

Day to Day

• Rapid triage of and response to internal data queries, and partnering with internal departments (such as with our Go-To-Market and Shipping organisations) to help manage requests and workflow.
• Modify existing dbt and LookML to provide for self-service analytics across Shippit.
• Update the definitions of reverse ETLs (we use Rudderstack for these) when new fields are created or new systems are in play.
• Create new reports and updating of reports, such as reports on adoption of new products, that may require data from both the business systems and Shippit’s internal systems
• Perform particularly gnarly once-off analysis utilising the full suite of tools available to you - such as a cloud notebook, R, or Python - to support us making impactful decisions more quickly.
• Improve data quality issues arising from our integrations with carriers and eCommerce platforms, helping to find causes of missing scans and anomalous issues.
