Why this site exists
The title does not exist yet. The work does.
Insights Engineer is a site about a job that is showing up inside consumer insights teams faster than anyone has named it: the person who builds the system that answers the question, instead of answering it again next month.
We think this job is to consumer insights what the analytics engineer was to analytics. That title was a blog post before it was a profession. This is the blog post.
What is here
- The manifesto, which is the argument.
- The definition, so the term means one thing.
- A glossary, so the words hold still.
- A two-week assessment for teams that want to know where their hours go.
How it is written
We use AI the way an insights engineer would: to draft, under a house style, never to publish. Nothing goes live without a human edit.
