Interview Process
The hiring process for this role looks like this:
Gratia Health is looking for a self-motivated mid-level Product Analytics Engineer to own our data landscape. As the sole data practitioner, you will embed directly within our product and engineering team. Because our ingestion pipelines are already automated and lightweight, you won't waste time on infrastructure plumbing. Instead, you will focus on product mechanics, tracking telemetry, maintaining dbt models in Snowflake, and turning product data into actionable insights.
About Gratia Health
Gratia is a venture-backed health technology startup that specializes in helping healthcare employers create healthy, sustainable workforces through its behavior change platform. Our goal is to develop and deploy a portfolio of data informed programs that help create more sustainable work environments for shift-based healthcare providers, like nurses. Our programs are designed using proven behavioral science concepts to address chronic workforce challenges within systems and are deployed using our proprietary software platform that gamifies the experience for participating providers. The end result is increased compensation and satisfaction for providers and a definitive, significant near-term ROI for employers.
You'll be joining the engineering team, currently 3 members. We're all remote and live across the US. We love to collaborate via paring, async tools, and timely gifs. We have created an environment of kindness and generosity. We lift each other up, don't blame, and solve problems when we see them. Every member operates with high levels of autonomy to produce the best work in the way that works best for them and the team. As the only data engineer, you'll have to be self-guided and self-motivated, but you'll have a strong group of very smart engineers at your back. We believe in the Agile Manifesto and do our best to let it guide us. No daily standups, no story points, just working software. Our general disposition is towards doing, not talking about doing. We all work directly with the business, our end users, our clients, and anyone we need to, to build the best product possible.
