About Us

We believe teachers have one of the most vital jobs in the world, and we’re here to support them. What began as a word-of-mouth marketplace where teachers could buy and sell educational resources is now a teacher-powered digital learning platform. Our community of 7M+ educators relies on us for engaging, accessible, classroom-ready materials—and we rely on our team members to continue developing solutions that improve the lives of teachers, students, and, ultimately, the state of education itself.

Role:

Analytics Engineers build the data foundation for reporting, analysis and experimentation. We are looking for someone with expertise in metric development, data modeling & SQL. Using these and other tools, you will transform data from data warehouse tables into critical data artifacts that power impactful analytic use cases (e.g. metrics, dashboards) and empower our downstream data consumers. As an Analytics Engineer, you will work collaboratively with Data and Engineering teams, as well as business teams including Product, Marketing, and Finance, to achieve highly impactful outcomes.

Data can transform how a company operates; high data quality and tooling is the biggest lever to achieving that transformation. You will make that happen at TpT and help us democratize data.

Responsibilities: 

  • Understand data needs by interfacing with fellow data engineers, data scientists, data analysts, and business partners
  • Architect, build, and launch efficient, scalable, & reliable new data models using sound software engineering principles
  • Design, define, and implement metrics and dimensions to enable analysis and reporting for all levels of the organization
  • Become a data expert in your business domain and own data quality
  • Build and improve data tooling in partnership with other data and platform teams
  • Design and develop dashboards to enable self-serve data consumption
  • Train Data Analysts in data modeling best practices to help them contribute efficiently to the existing and new data models, as needed

Qualities for a successful candidate:

  • Passion for high data quality, scaling data, and analytics work
  • 3+ years of relevant industry experience as an Analytics Engineer, BI Engineer, Data Analyst or similar
  • Strong skills in SQL, and business intelligence tools
  • Experience in schema design and dimensional data modeling
  • Proven ability to succeed in both collaborative and independent work environments
  • Detail oriented and excited to learn new skills and tools

Extra credit for:

  • Hands-on experience with data modeling tools, such as dbt
  • Python, Looker, and Airflow skills preferred
  • An eye for design when it comes to dashboards and visualization tools
