About the role

What You'll Do

  • Collaborate closely with other teams (Sales, Finance, Product, Marketing, and more) to translate problems and needs into action-oriented data solutions
  • Design, build, and maintain data pipelines for reliable ingestion and transformation
  • Rapidly prototype and iterate using AI coding tools to accelerate development and reduce toil
  • Drive rigor and best practices, with a focus on data quality, consistency, and transparency
  • Develop and deploy statistical models and machine learning, where appropriate
  • Build clear, decision-oriented visualizations and dashboards for stakeholders across multiple departments
  • Own selected production data systems: selection, orchestration, monitoring, and tuning
  • Communicate and shepherd key data results and analysis to executives

What We're Looking for

  • Experience with B2B SaaS-relevant data, including Salesforce and financial metrics
  • Strong communication skills and ability to work effectively across multiple departments and stakeholder groups
  • Ownership mindset and ability to deliver end-to-end outcomes independently; must be a "startup type"
  • Demonstrated ability to design data pipelines and work with imperfect, evolving data sources
  • Sharp attention to data quality, including validation, anomaly detection, and root-cause analysis of inconsistencies
  • Strong proficiency in Python and SQL; experience with modern data stack tools (e.g., dbt, Airflow, Spark, or equivalents, a plus)
  • Experience with data visualization tools (e.g., Tableau, Looker, or similar)
  • Some familiarity with infrastructure and related setup (databases, data warehouses, VMs)
  • Knowledge of core machine learning concepts and when to apply them pragmatically

Example Initial Projects

  • Build a likelihood-of-close model for Salesforce opportunities, which factors in relevant metadata and history
  • Create a framework and initial implementation for an executive operational dashboard, working with a broad set of teams
  • Define, validate, and implement key SaaS product-usage metrics

Salary Range: The base pay range for this role is between $170,000 and $190,000. Base pay will depend on your skills, qualifications, experience, and location
