Job Description
At HeyPolo, data isn’t an afterthought — it shapes how people stay safe and connected without sacrificing privacy. We’re building a smart, privacy-first location-sharing app where every metric, model, and insight has real-world impact. You’ll work with meaningful data (not vanity dashboards), help define what “good” looks like in a consent-based environment, and influence decisions from day one in a product that’s still being shaped.
If you want to::
• Create intuitive, actionable dashboards and visualizations for daily operational use and strategic decision-making;
• Partner with leaders in product, marketing, and operations to understand business context and translate questions into analytical frameworks;
• Provide consultative insight to stakeholders and influence decision-making through clear communication of results;
• Define and prioritize the analytics backlog — anticipate business needs rather than waiting for tickets;
• Build and maintain analytical models in dbt to support reporting and analysis;
• Advocate for best practices in data hygiene, measurement, and analytics deliverables.
And you can check off::
• Proven experience as a Data Analyst with a track record of independent execution and impact;
• Strong SQL skills with the ability to write performant queries and build dbt models;
• Demonstrated ability to create meaningful dashboards and visualizations using tools such as Looker, Tableau, Power BI, or equivalent;
• Comfortable translating vague, open-ended business problems into structured analytical tasks;
• Highly motivated self-starter with strong problem-solving instincts and a proactive work style;
• Experience working across multiple domains (e.g., marketing, product, operations) to influence cross-functional outcomes.
Here’s the deal::
• Growth and learning opportunities: time dedicated to learning, conferences, online learning platforms, and books for your professional development;
• Health and wellness: we want you to feel and be your best. That's why we offer various benefits, from online workouts, a physical coach and a gym to regular mental health checks;
• Tools of your choice: choose technical equipment and the tools you need to do your best;
• Community and celebrations: get ready for long-lasting traditions such as yearly workation, Friday get-togethers, various team buildings and company celebrations;
• Convenient commuting: traveling from point A to point B can be a pain. That’s why, depending on your unique circumstances, we compensate part of your public transport costs;
• Work-life balance: We encourage working in the office, with the possibility of up to two remote days per week. Plus, with our WFA policy, you can work from almost anywhere in the world;
• Premium Surfshark accounts: for you, your family, and friends;
• Gross salary: 5200-6300 Eur/month for the Lithuanian market, 23350-26000 Pln/month for the Polish market. It may vary depending on your skills and experience.
