Job title: Senior Agentic Analytics Engineer
About the Role
Opendoor is building an AI-first analytics organization, blending data science, data engineering, and AI to enable proactive insights and decision-making. As a Senior Agentic Analytics Engineer, you will help design AI agents and systems that surface actionable insights and guide leaders—shipping AI-driven decisions across the business.
What You'll Do
-
Design and deploy AI agents that monitor business performance and surface actionable insights without being asked.
-
Architect systems that shift analytics from answering questions to anticipating needs.
-
Create intelligent alerting that distinguishes signal from noise and recommends specific actions.
-
Develop natural language interfaces that let business leaders query data conversationally.
-
Build semantic layers that translate business concepts into data structures optimized for LLM reasoning.
-
Ship internal tools that transform how Opendoor makes decisions at every level.
-
Design data models that support automated analysis, pattern detection, and AI agent interactions.
-
Build workflows that connect insight generation to recommended actions.
-
Establish feedback loops that make our AI systems smarter over time.
-
Identify high-value opportunities where AI can augment human decision-making and implement end-to-end solutions using Claude, custom agents, and modern AI tooling.
-
Measure impact rigorously—we care about decisions influenced, not dashboards built.
-
What We're Looking For
-
5+ years of experience in analytics, data science, or data engineering, with increasing scope and ownership.
-
Expert-level SQL with demonstrated ability to design complex data models and optimize for both human and AI consumption.
-
Strong Python proficiency for data engineering, automation, and AI agent development.
-
Experience with modern data warehouses (Snowflake, BigQuery, or similar) and the broader data stack (dbt, Airflow, etc.).
-
Hands-on experience building and deploying AI agents or LLM-powered applications in production.
-
Deep understanding of LLM capabilities, limitations, and prompt engineering best practices.
-
Experience architecting semantic layers or natural language interfaces for data access.
-
Proven ability to identify high-ROI automation opportunities and ship end-to-end solutions.
-
Track record of driving measurable business impact through analytics—not just producing analyses, but influencing decisions.
-
Strong analytical intuition—you know what questions matter before they're asked.
-
Experience translating ambiguous, cross-functional business problems into technical solutions.
-
History of operating autonomously and setting direction, not just executing on defined projects.
-
Experience mentoring other analysts or engineers, formally or informally.
-
Demonstrated ability to influence senior stakeholders and drive alignment across teams.
-
Comfort operating in ambiguity and shaping strategy, not just responding to it.
-
Track record of building systems and processes that scale beyond yourself.
-
You ship products, not just dashboards; you measure success by business impact, not technical complexity.
-
Experience in real estate, fintech, or marketplace businesses.
-
Background in marketing analytics, sales operations, product analytics, or pricing/economics.
-
History of building tools or platforms that replaced recurring analyst work.
-
Experience leading technical projects or small teams.
