About Hightouch

Hightouch’s mission is to empower everyone to take action on their data. Through our Reverse ETL platform, business and data users can seamlessly sync data from where it resides, such as warehouses and databases, to where it is needed, including operational systems and SaaS tools. Traditionally, acting on data has required engineering time and bandwidth, and left most business users stuck with charts and reports that are unable to take automated action on their data. With Hightouch, every business user, without writing any code, can activate data to streamline critical processes, improve marketing performance, and scale operations.

Our team operates with a focus on making a meaningful impact for our customers. We believe in approaching challenges with a first principles thinking mindset, moving quickly and embracing our value of efficient execution, and treating each other with compassion and kindness. We look for team members that are strong communicators, have a growth mindset, and are motivated and persistent in achieving our goals.

Hundreds of companies use Hightouch, including Spotify, Ramp, Retool, NBA, Plaid, and Betterment. We’re based in San Francisco, are remote-friendly, and backed by leading investors such as Amplify Partners, ICONIQ Growth, Bain Capital Ventures, Y-Combinator, and Afore Capital.

About The Role 

Hightouch is looking for a Senior Analytics Engineer to drive our business forward. In this role, you’ll be responsible for maintaining and improving our current data stack (Fivetran, Snowflake, dbt, and of course… Hightouch) as well as driving insights to key stakeholders across our team. 

We anticipate that in this role you’ll spend 60% of your time building and maintaining models and reports and 40% of the time interfacing with stakeholders to deeply understand their needs and surface insights. 

How to know this role is for you? If your first question when reading the newest dbt release notes is “what business problem could this solve?” then you might be a great fit.

How you'll spend your time 

• Be responsible for the uptime, quality/integrity, and cost of our data stack (which currently includes Fivetran, dbt, Snowflake, Looker, Hex, and Hightouch - and could include whatever you think is best!)
• Build strong relationships with stakeholders across Hightouch to ensure that: 1. we’re tracking the right information in our product and operational systems to best understand our business, 2. we’re delivering analysis that drives clear visibility into our KPIs, and 3. our data is driving actionable business results, all with the urgency that our rapidly-growing startup deserves
• Define and maintain our data team coding standards/style guide - what should our code look like, what are best practices, and why?
• Help us become a Data team that inspires other Data teams - give feedback to our Product organization on Hightouch itself, and provide guidance/mentorship to customer teams about their use of Hightouch and potentially other technical topics via consulting sessions and blogposts

About you

• 2+ years of experience with Fivetran, Snowflake, and dbt 
• Demonstrated ability to understand business stakeholders’ needs and translate those into additional data visibility and/or improved reporting 
• A drive to find the right tool for the right job - while you’re passionate about being up-to-date with the latest technologies, business needs come before having the slickest technology stack
• Special note: if your title doesn’t have “engineer” in it today - please don’t hesitate to apply! We’d especially love to speak to folks who have transitioned into the data world from another analytical field (e.g., finance, revenue operations, or performance marketing)

Compensation

Hightouch’s salary range for this position is $165,000 - $200,000 USD per year.

At Hightouch, we value impact over years of experience when it comes to your role and compensation. Your compensation is based on our assessment of your interview performance, which our recruiting partner and hiring manager will walk you through when you receive an offer.

Salary is just one component of Hightouch’s total compensation package for employees. We also offer a generous equity package for all of our full-time employees, as we believe being an owner of Hightouch is incredibly important. See below for more information on our benefits and perks.
