About Nisar Shaik

Senior Analytics Engineer with 8+ years of experience designing and building mission-critical analytics platforms at scale.At DoorDash, I own the C-suite executive reporting and enterprise BI across dbt, Sigma, Tableau, and Mode, supporting 40K+ users globally.Most recently, I am leading an enterprise wide BI modernization effort by migrating ~9K dashboards from legacy SQL pipelines into canonical, de-duplicated dbt semantic models to shift the organization from a SQL-first workflow to point-and-click self-serve analytics.Prior to this, I drove an enterprise-wide cost reduction initiative which lowered our Snowflake costs by ~33% while BI usage grew ~50% YoY. I really enjoy partnering with product leadership building KPIs right from ingestion to dashboards and I am also excited by roles where I can own critical analytics platforms, influence architecture across teams, and build systems that power high-stakes decisions at scale, while keeping the costs manageable.Competencies: dbt, Snowflake, SQL, Airflow, Python, Analytics Engineering, Semantic & Metric Layers, Data Modeling, BI Platforms (Tableau, Sigma, Mode), Cost Optimization, Data Quality & Lineage
