At Anaplan, we’re looking for a Senior Engineering Intelligence Developer to build the measurement engine behind Product and Technology. This is not traditional BI. It is a hands-on, high-trust role for someone who can turn engineering toolchain data into the metrics leaders use to improve delivery, quality, investment, adoption, and the future AI-augmented SDLC.

You’ll sit in Engineering Enablement and own the intelligence layer for how engineering work is understood. That means shaping DORA and value-stream measurement across Atlassian, GitHub, CI/CD and adjacent tools; managing a KPI landscape of around 190 measures; and defining what we measure next as AI changes how software is planned, built, tested, and shipped.

We need a developer-minded analytics specialist who can take an ambiguous leadership question, find the real problem, model the data properly, and create trusted self-serve insight that lasts beyond the first dashboard.

Your Impact

  • Own engineering intelligence end-to-end: raw data, modelling, semantic layers, dashboards, documentation, and the story behind the numbers.
  • Build DORA metrics and value-stream measurement across Atlassian, GitHub, CI/CD, and related engineering systems.
  • Make sense of a KPI estate of around 190 measures spanning delivery, quality, dependency health, investment, and adoption.
  • Define the next generation of SDLC metrics as AI changes how engineering work is planned, built, tested, and shipped.
  • Advise when to build, buy, embed, or consume AI-enabled BI through Rovo, Atlassian Intelligence, Tableau/eazyBI, Power BI, and similar tooling.
  • Turn broad questions from senior engineering leaders into clear, defensible, actionable answers.
  • Contribute to engineering delivery through development tasks, data quality checks, and test data that improve completeness and confidence.
  • Set the standards for definitions, governance, and modelling so Engineering Intelligence remains trusted as access broadens.

Your skills

  • Strong experience in reporting, BI, or analytics engineering within an Atlassian-heavy or comparable engineering toolchain.
  • Deep SQL skills across warehouses with hundreds of tables, plus the judgment to turn complexity into usable models.
  • Python capability for harder transformations, enrichment, automation, and data-quality work.
  • A track record of building semantic layers, governed definitions, and reusable models that outlast the person who built them.
  • Practical familiarity with DORA, value-stream measurement, DevOps data, and CI/CD pipeline data.
  • Hands-on experience with eazyBI, Power BI, Tableau, or comparable BI platforms.
  • Working knowledge of development practices and tools, including repositories, build tooling, scripting languages, and agile delivery.
  • Consulting strength: you can shape requirements, explain trade-offs, and challenge metrics that would mislead.
  • High ownership and autonomy: you can run a specialist domain without a large support team.

Nice to have

  • Familiarity with Atlassian data models such as Jira, Confluence, Jira Align, and JSM Assets. Including use of Atlassian Analytics.
  • Experience in a SaaS, software development, or platform engineering environment with multiple stakeholders and shifting priorities.
