We’re Tovala, a food-tech company reinventing home cooking to save consumers time. Through an innovative combination of hardware, software, and fresh food delivery, we make it incredibly simple for anyone to prepare and enjoy delicious, home-cooked meals without sacrificing time to do whatever matters to them. Through our superior technology, product experience and food quality, we have separated Tovala from the busy pack of other meal delivery businesses. In the process, we’ve amassed a loyal, rapidly growing following and our retention, product engagement and customer NPS are all best-in-class. We’ve raised over $100mm from great investors like Left Lane Capital, Origin Ventures, Y Combinator and Comcast Ventures and have invested strongly in building a unique culture that fosters growth, personal development and camaraderie.

How you'll spend your time at Tovala

Develop and disseminate subject matter expertise across multiple domains of business / data
Design, conduct, and report on experiments to verify/nullify business hypotheses
Develop and maintain reports in Looker, speak knowledgeably to the insights they uncover
Conduct ad-hoc analyses to provide data-backed recommendations to the business
Make and champion analytically backed recommendations to uncover high value opportunities
Own ETL, data validations, and documentation to support your and others’ analyses
Partner with Data Engineers to identify and scope integration of new value-add datasets

About you

We’re not big on buzzwords like “rockstar”. So here’s what we’re actually looking for:
You’re humble, accountable, and intelligent. You value those things in that order.
You’re highly analytical. You have a strong foundation in statistics, experiment design, and analytical methods. You dig beyond surface-level answers and get to the “why” rather than stopping at the “what”.
You’re an excellent communicator. You effectively communicate priorities, blockers, and results. You can identify ambiguities and work collaboratively with less technical folks to achieve clarity. You cater your messaging to your audience and are comfortable presenting findings, whether to a fellow Analyst or the CEO.
You’re technologically savvy. You will be trusted to make and justify tradeoffs between technical implementations depending on the scope, impact, and urgency of the problem.
You’re results oriented. You’re comfortable making tradeoffs between “the best way” and “the most useful quick way”. Nobody checks (or cares) what hours you work - we care that the work gets done and that you feel happy and supported doing it.
You bring your authentic self to work. Give us a chance to appreciate the person behind the job title!

Technical Requirements

Proficiency in SQL, Looker, and Python/R
Proficiency in dbt to develop ETL
Experience using version-control to develop and update code (git, bitbucket, etc.)
Experience selecting and applying optimal statistical techniques to solve business problems
Begrudging proficiency in MS Excel (rare, but sometimes necessary #StartupLife)
