  Our Ways of Working

  We are a remote first company, with team members across the United States, spanning multiple time zones. However, the executive team has prioritized meeting in our Emeryville office monthly. We know that personal connection is the foundation for the great work we do together and this allows us deeper collaboration and business alignment as an executive team. As this role sits on that team, there is an expectation that the role will either reside locally in the Bay Area or be open to travel to the Bay Area 2-4 days a month. Your direct team will be remote most of the time, with the exception of our department and company offsites that happen two times a year. These offsites are expected of employees and executives and are great opportunities to meet the people you work with every day and to do the work that is much more difficult to do virtually.

You will lead an existing team of 12 and help grow it to a team of 20 or more data analysts, data scientists, and data engineers.
