As a Senior BI Developer, you will be a key individual contributor building trusted data products for Agoda’s technology organization, including curated datasets, metrics, dashboards and visualizations, and scalable data transformations. You will work closely with engineers, engineering managers, team leads, and senior leadership to help the organization make better decisions with data. This role combines analytics, metrics definition, and stakeholder consulting with hands-on data engineering and development
IN THIS ROLE, YOU’LL GET TO
• Act as a partner and consultant to engineering managers and leaders: translate stakeholder and engineering questions into measurable metrics/information such as developer velocity, cost efficiency, and code quality, and keep those definitions consistent across reports.
• Design, build, and maintain ETL/ELT transformations, including Spark/Python workflows and warehouse models, so data is accurate, timely, tested, and fit for reporting. As a Senior, review others’ pipeline and metric work, raise delivery standards, and unblock the team.
• Analyze large datasets with SQL and Python to support engineering and operational decisions.
• Design and maintain dashboards and visual reports so engineering managers and leaders can explore metrics (for example developer velocity, cost efficiency, and code quality) without a ticket for every chart.
• Improve data reliability through validation, quality checks, observability, production troubleshooting, and query performance tuning. Own published metrics: explain filters and grain, flag numbers that should not be trusted, and recommend next steps.
• Use AI tools (for example Cursor, Claude, or similar) to accelerate SQL development, testing, refactoring, analysis, pipeline work, and documentation, and reject unsafe or unverified output before it reaches production or stakeholders.
WHAT YOU’LL NEED TO SUCCEED
• 5+ years in business intelligence, analytics, and/or data engineering, with experience in both stakeholder consulting and hands-on pipeline or data-product work.
• Advanced SQL (joins, window functions, and performance on large datasets).
• Strong Python skills (or similar) for building data pipelines.
• Experience with ETL/ELT and orchestration (for example Kubeflow or similar).
• Strong analytical thinking: comfortable framing business questions, exploring data, and turning results into clear insights.
• Experience building dashboards or visual reports for stakeholders.
• Ability to switch context between stakeholder discussions and hands-on technical work — metrics definition/analysis one day, ETL or data modeling the next.
• Practical AI-assisted development: generate, review, test, and own the result. You can explain what you trusted AI to draft and what you verified yourself.
• Clear written and verbal English, and the ability to work independently with engineers and leaders in an agile environment.
IT’S GREAT IF YOU HAVE
• Experience with software-delivery practices such as Agile/Scrum and CI/CD (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or similar).
• Interest in developer productivity or engineering analytics.
• Experience with common data platforms / big data technology (e.g., BigQuery, Snowflake, Redshift, Hive, Spark, Vertica, StarRocks, or similar).
• Hands-on experience with visualization or data-serving UIs such as Apache Superset, Tableau, or a lightweight web app.
• Experience building APIs or internal data products beyond dashboards, not only ad-hoc analysis.
• A degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or equivalent practical experience.

* Continuously improve CEG end‑to‑end processes across the post‑booking journey to remove pain points, and improve operational performance through targeted initiatives and data driven insights.
* Own and evolve frameworks and roadmaps for how we continuously improve our internal Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and related processes; balancing CX/PX outcomes vs. efficiency/cost.
* Drive strategic initiatives across CEG such as improving Localization support in key growth markets, regulatory initiatives and partner closely with our commercial teams in order to improve partner/supplier pain points.
* Define clear problem statements and build business cases to define and prioritize customer/partner pain points and success metrics.
**Lead and Develop a High‑Performing Team**
* Set long‑term vision, strategy, and annual/quarterly OKRs for your team, aligning with CEG and Agoda-wide priorities.
* Manage and coach a team of project managers (and potentially people managers), building talent, capability, and succession within the Operational Excellence and Automation team.
* Provide structured feedback, mentoring, and support to enable your team’s growth and to consistently raise the bar for quality and impact.
* Build trusted relationships with senior leaders and stakeholders across CEG and other functions, effectively influencing priorities and decisions.
* Monitor project milestones, identify risks and dependencies, troubleshoot issues, and implement mitigation plans—acting at all times as the ultimate owner of the portfolio’s outcomes.
