We sit in Data Modelling and Engineering Team (DMET), we are the 'Data Modelling' part! The title, [Analytics Engineer](https://www.getdbt.com/what-is-analytics-engineering) comes from the fact that we sit between Data Engineers on one side, who load the data onto our data warehouse; and Data Analysts (and other data users), who use the data on the other. There is a growing need for clean, standardised data that is consistent across the business and easy to use for any downstream users. That is where the Analytics Engineering function comes in. We aim to provide consistent, reusable data models conformed to common standards so that: - Analytical users (including Analysts, Statisticians and Data Scientists) can focus on analytical work instead of building their own pipelines -- Analysts working in different parts of the organisation have consistent experiences when using data models +- Analytical users working in different parts of the organisation have consistent experiences when using data models - Apparent discrepancies among numbers reported between different analytical teams is minimised Here are some useful links if you want to do some further reading around Analytics Engineering:
