Data Engineering & Analytics

One number, one meaning.

We build the pipelines, models and governance that let your board, your product team and your finance team quote the same figure and be right.

  • dbt + warehouse native
  • Contract-tested pipelines
  • Lineage end to end

What it is

Most data problems are definition problems

When two dashboards disagree, the cause is almost never the pipeline. It is that 'active customer' was defined twice, by two teams, six months apart.

We fix the definitions first and the plumbing second: a modelled warehouse with a semantic layer, tested transformations, and lineage that answers 'where did this number come from' in one click.

  • Semantic layer as the single definition
  • Tested, version-controlled transformations
  • Column-level lineage
  • Governance that does not block analysts

Capabilities

The full path from source to decision

Ingestion

Reliable, monitored extraction from operational systems, SaaS platforms and event streams, with schema-change alerting.

  • Batch + streaming
  • CDC from operational stores
  • Schema drift alerts

Warehouse modelling

Dimensional models that analysts can navigate without a map, built in dbt and reviewed like application code.

  • Dimensional design
  • dbt transformations
  • Test coverage on models

Semantic layer

Metrics defined once and consumed everywhere — BI tools, notebooks and product surfaces alike.

  • Metric definitions
  • Governed access
  • API for product use

Analytics enablement

Dashboards worth keeping, plus the training that stops your team rebuilding them privately in spreadsheets.

  • Executive dashboards
  • Self-serve exploration
  • Analyst enablement

Data quality

Freshness, volume and distribution tests wired into the pipeline, with owners and escalation paths.

  • Automated testing
  • Data contracts
  • Incident ownership

Governance

Classification, access control and retention that satisfy your regulator without making analysts file tickets.

  • PII classification
  • Row-level access
  • Retention policy

Process

How we build it

01

Audit

We trace your three most-argued-about metrics from dashboard back to source and show you where they diverge.

  • Lineage map
  • Definition conflicts

02

Model

Core entities modelled and tested, with the semantic layer standing up the agreed definitions.

  • Warehouse models
  • Metric layer

03

Automate

Ingestion, orchestration and quality checks running on a schedule with alerting to a named owner.

  • Orchestrated pipelines
  • Quality suite

04

Enable

Dashboards, documentation and training so your analysts extend the platform without us.

  • Dashboards
  • Analyst training

FAQ

Questions we are asked

Probably not yet. Most companies under a few terabytes get further with a well-modelled warehouse than with a lakehouse they cannot staff. We will tell you when the threshold is genuinely crossed.

We will trace it end to end and show you exactly where the definitions split.
