Data Analyst, Business Analytics

This job is no longer open
Are you passionate about leveraging data to solve interesting business problems? On a daily basis we collect and analyze millions of data points to help to solve the problems of parking. We’re looking for a Data Analyst to join our growing Business Analytics team and help us make it faster and easier for people to get where they need to go.  

The Business Analytics team at Arrive owns the flow of data from its raw state in our data warehouse to the BI tools and data products that consume it.  This means our analysts are regularly building/updating ETLs and data models via SQL, surfacing data in our BI tools via dashboards and interactive data products, and working with stakeholders across multiple departments to formulate goals and build a deeper understanding of our two-sided marketplace.

Your day-to-day work will be SQL heavy, but will also require you to operationalize ambiguous business problems into answerable questions, translate the data you pull into effective visualizations, and clearly communicate key findings. We're in an exciting and rapidly evolving industry that requires constant innovation, evaluation, and iteration. Help us perfect the parking experience and make an impact on the industry!

What you'll be doing

    • Work with variety of data sources - extracting knowledge and actionable information from massive datasets
    • Build and flesh out data models in our Redshift database for use in regular and/or automated reporting and analysis
    • Expand the breadth of questions that internal stakeholders can solve independently by adding on to and refining our heavily-used BI tools, Looker and Tableau
    • Be a passionate problem solver - breaking down problems and developing analytical insights
    • Convey your work and results to a wide variety of internal and external stakeholders – nerds and non-nerds
    • Evaluate process inefficiencies and identify areas where you can create, automate, and develop tools (SQL-based or otherwise)
    • Diagnose data-related bugs in our SQL code and ensure they are resolved in a timely manner
    • Support the business with ad hoc and regular reporting
    • Continuously strive for a deeper understanding of our business drivers

    • Solid communication skills
    • Passion for automation
    • Comfort in a complex data environment and understanding of data structures
    • Experience with SQL and Excel (Experience with Python or R is a plus, but not expected)
    • Experience with some flavor of data visualization (we use Looker and Tableau)
    • Familiarity with transactional and data warehouse environments (Postgres, Redshift)
    • The business sense to understand why you're pulling data and whether it seems accurate...not just pulling it
    • You like to formulate the right questions versus just seeking answers to make sure the best and smartest decisions get made

What you get

    • The tools - or additional tools, if need be - to get the job done
    • A data engineering team to help you get clean, reliable data and maintain the ETLs you build
    • Solve big problems across departments and for leadership
    • High functioning, collaborative, and capable teammates with a desire to both share their knowledge and learn from you
    • Opportunity to directly impact success for a rapidly growing business in a fast-paced industry
