Role
Who you are
- 4+ years of experience working in data science and/or product analytics, ideally at a high-growth enterprise SaaS business
- Experience defining and implementing product metrics
- Expertise in leveraging data to deliver actionable insights for non-technical stakeholders
- Skilled at data visualization, with strong opinions on the right way to distill information to various audiences
- Strong SQL and data modeling skills, with experience applying skills to create data models thoughtfully in a warehouse environment
- Proficiency in statistical analysis (e.g., descriptive statistics)
- A bias towards communication and collaboration with business and technical stakeholders
- Experience bolstering quantitative analysis with qualitative insights
- A solution-oriented growth mindset. You’ll need to be a self-starter and thrive in a dynamic environment
- Comfortable with common git workflows and at least one scripting or statistical programming language (ideally Python and/or R)
What the job involves
- As a member of the data science analytics team, you’ll play a pivotal role in building the data culture at Retool. You’ll initiate projects to generate strategic insights and help the company remain data-driven.
- You’ll build data pipelines, dashboards, and reports to streamline operations, inform strategic priorities, and empower stakeholders to make data-informed decisions. You’ll apply statistical knowledge and the scientific method to the data questions we face today, and help us think critically about the questions of tomorrow
- As a data scientist, you’ll work closely with engineering, design, and product teams to size opportunities, prioritize product features, set goals, and quantify impact.
- We’re a hard-working, passionate bunch who are motivated by collaboration, strong results, and bringing the impact of Retool to our customers. When we’re in the office, we enjoy eating lunch (and occasionally dinner!) together, and we’ve been known for our lively game nights.
- But at the root of it all, we come together to show our customers and not-quite-yet customers how Retool can make them and their companies more efficient and successful. If this sounds like a fit, we’d love to hear from you!
- Embed with engineering, product, and design teams to surface key insights
- Develop dashboards and define metrics that drive key product and business decisions
- Build and maintain ETL pipelines
- Work with our engineering teams to validate existing data sources, identify opportunities to improve data quality, and craft requirements for robust new instrumentation as needed
- Be a self-starter
Our take
Retool allows developers to build internal applications quickly using a complete set of ready-made building blocks. These internal applications can be used to display company data from a range of sources, including Redis, Salesforce, Google Cloud, and Slack.
For a monthly fee, the platform enables companies to save time that they would have otherwise spent on developing their own internal applications. Retool brands itself as 'low-code,' meaning that it is easy to use and customize. There is a huge demand for systems that allow teams to analyze the data they already have. Retool already counts brands such as Amazon, Philips, Peloton, NBC, and Mercedes-Benz as customers.
Retool was founded in 2017, and the company is now valued at over $1 billion. Founded by Oxford graduate David Hsu, the management team includes ex-Stripe and ex-Airbnb employees with plenty of experience in taking a company from a start-up to a global brand. Retool was awarded $45 million in Series C in 2022, which it is using to expand its workforce, tweak its platform, and develop new products.
