The Fishtown Analytics team is distributed throughout the United States. Folks who typically work out of the Philadelphia office are working from home until it is safe to return to the office. All interviewing and on-boarding for our roles, regardless of where you are located, are taking place over Zoom for the foreseeable future.

Fishtown Analytics was founded in 2016 to empower analysts to create and disseminate organizational knowledge. Since then, we’ve grown to become one of the most respected brands in the analytics industry. Our product, dbt, is used by thousands of companies.

We’re looking for an experienced analytics engineer to join our Data team. This person will be a partner to Fishtown’s marketing team to drive the advancement of our marketing attribution strategy, increase efficiencies around our acquisition channels, design experiments to advance our growth strategy, and adopt a warehouse-first approach to marketing operations. They will be responsible for communicating their findings and recommendations to key stakeholders and should be proactive in seeking new and innovative solutions to solve company-wide data challenges.

Sound like something you’re interested in? We’d love to hear from you.

Who we are

At Fishtown Analytics, we have developed strong opinions on how companies should practice analytics. Specifically, we believe that:

- Code, rather than graphical user interfaces, is the best tool for defining complex analytical logic.

- Data analysts and analytics engineers should adopt similar practices and tools to software developers: version control, testing, multiple environments, and continuous integration.

- Critical analytics infrastructure should be controlled by its users as open-source software.

- Analytic code itself — not just analytics tools — will increasingly be open source.

It turns out that a lot of other people believe this too! Over the course of the past several years we've built a community of 9,000+ people and 3,000 companies who are using our ideas, products, and workflows to conduct analytics, including Lyft, Monzo, GitLab, Snowflake, the ACLU, Amazon, JetBlue, and RentTheRunway. Our product, dbt (https://www.getdbt.com/), has come to be synonymous with the practice of analytics engineering, defining an entire industry. We’re backed by top investors including Andreessen Horowitz and Sequoia Capital, recently raising our series B - read the announcement here.
