In this episode of Digital After Dark, Andrew and Matt explore how AI is reshaping the way analytics teams are hired, trained, and managed. As automation takes over many of the technical tasks that once defined junior analyst roles, the conversation shifts to a bigger question:
What skills will matter most in the future?
The discussion covers everything from AI-generated code and automated workflows to the growing importance of critical thinking, ownership, problem-solving, and business understanding. Andrew shares the five key traits he looks for when hiring analysts, while Matt discusses why today's teams are becoming increasingly "AI-augmented" and what that means for the future of analytics careers. The episode also explores:
- How AI is changing day-to-day analytics work
- Whether there is still a place for junior analysts
- Why technical fundamentals still matter
- The risks of losing hard-earned experience and tribal knowledge
- How training and onboarding need to evolve
- The growing importance of soft skills in technical roles
- AI, automation, and the future of consulting delivery models
- Why accountability remains a uniquely human responsibility
"We're not hiring robots. We're hiring cyborgs."
The future analyst isn't replaced by AI. They're enhanced by it.
Whether you're building analytics teams, managing digital professionals, or trying to understand how AI will impact your own career, this episode provides a practical and honest discussion about where the industry is heading.
