The data science team focuses on helping drive business outcomes across Calm. The business problem comes first (what are we trying to solve?), and the analysis follows (how do we best solve this problem?). Sometimes the solution is straightforward and sometimes it is highly complex—we always rely on data to drive our solutions.

What You’ll Do

As a Senior Analytics Engineer it is your directive to design and develop scalable data models that power our data products serving internal analysis, experimentation and reporting across our entire business. You will collaborate with key stakeholders across our product, engineering, operations and data science teams to understand our various first and third party data sources and translate this knowledge into performant analytical data models.

  • Own and improve our dbt implementation and data models, turning raw data into scalable, business-ready datasets that enable clear analysis of business and platform performance.
  • Collaborate with partners across technical and non-technical teams to bridge the gap between data and action
  • Inform key decision makers about the state of the business through internal data products
  • Own the development, testing, documentation and evangelism of our core data models
  • Utilize analytical tools such as Databricks, BigQuery, Airflow, Mode and Tableau to help our business and data science partners to build actionable insights
  • Develop strong cross-functional partnerships across Calm to drive success

Some past projects include:

  • Developing and implementing an alerting system for critical metrics
  • Architecting the data warehouse to serve many internal data consumers (analysts, engineers, product managers, operations managers)
  • Building an efficient and scalable data pipeline for high-volume events in the data warehouse
