With 4,500+ of the world’s top teams and a growing 100,000+ user base, strong data foundations are crucial to achieving our company goals.

You’ll join our growth team and report to Andrew, our Growth Partner.

You’ll be working asynchronously with a bright, dedicated team from across the globe, with a strong focus on taking complex problems and creating solutions that feel simple and intuitive for our customers.


What You’ll Be Responsible For

You’ll play a crucial role in leading the data infrastructure and operations that sets the business up for long-term growth.


In the first month, you’ll:

  • Get a high-level understanding of our data & analytics platform and its different parts. You’ll work closely with Andrew and partner with Roberto in our engineering team.
  • Take ownership of our data platform, and be the SME (Subject Matter Expert) of its daily operations. This includes learning how to manage and monitor the platform, ensuring smooth and efficient performance, and troubleshooting any issues that arise.
  • Ship your first data stack improvement. We’re big believers in setting new hires up with early wins to build confidence and rapport in your role. This could involve optimizing existing data pipelines or introducing a new tool or process to enhance our data operations.


Once you are a bit more settled, within the first 3 months, you’ll start to work on:

  • Define a product analytics tracking plan to enable self-serve analytics. You’ll partner closely with our Director of Product, Michael, and product managers to understand their needs and create a comprehensive tracking strategy that empowers the team with actionable insights.
  • Manage the technical implementation of the tracking plan. This involves collaborating with engineering to ensure accurate data collection and integration within our analytics platform.
  • Design, build, and maintain data pipelines and ETL processes. You’ll ensure that data flows efficiently from various sources into our data warehouse, and is transformed and stored in a way that is accessible and useful for analysis.
  • Ensure data quality and integrity through robust data governance practices. This includes setting up data validation checks, maintaining documentation, and promoting best practices within the team.
  • Set up advanced trial to customer conversion attribution. You’ll partner with Andrew to redefine our attribution modeling strategy, implementing advanced techniques to accurately track and analyze customer conversions, and providing insights that will drive our growth strategy.

  • Establish an Account Based Revenue attribution model.
  • Implement the tooling and reporting needed to drive our experimentation culture.
  • Lead documentation practices and data governance protocols.
  • Support the integration of new tools for growth such as Clay and enrichment services for automation and personalization.


Within your first 12 months, you’ll become our go-to expert for maintaining and operating our data platform. You’ll play a key role in long-term projects impacting our data infrastructure and future investments. Working closely with the engineering and product teams, you’ll shape our data strategy, including integrating AI and business intelligence into Float. As our first data and analytics engineer hire, you’ll set up our data and analytics for long-term success, determining our data infrastructure, tool stack, and identifying new roles to support our growth objectives.


What You’ll Need To Be Successful

We want you to love your work and believe that these skills will allow you to succeed in the role.

Applying these skills requires:

  • 5+ years in data & analytics engineering, preferably in a B2B SaaS environment.
  • Proficiency in SQL and at least one mainstream programming language.
