About Betterment
Betterment is a leading, technology-driven financial services company that offers investing and retirement solutions for retail investors and investment advisors as well as financial wellness solutions, including a 401(k) for small and medium-sized businesses. Our team is passionate about our mission: making people's lives better. We're headquartered in NYC, and offer hybrid NY-based (three days/ week in-office) and select, non-NY-based remote positions.
About the role
At Betterment, we work hard to maximize every dollar our customers have entrusted to us. Data plays a critical role in nearly all of our pursuits and operations - it's core to how we decide the focus of the efforts of hundreds of engineers, product managers, and designers, how we allocate resources to different customer acquisition channels, how we efficiently run the operations of a business that manages over $40 billion dollars of our customers' money, and much much more.
The Analytics team makes an impact across the entire organization, partnering with the business to help shape strategy, identify opportunities, and influence product decisions that create the best experience for our users. Projects range from creating beautiful and informative dashboards that provide a pulse on the business, to delving deep into customer behavior, to making game-changing discoveries about how we can improve our business and make our product better for our customers.
In this role, you will be a Senior Analyst with the ability to have a direct impact across our business lines. You'll be given the opportunity to research the most important priorities in our business, as well as surface priorities we are yet to identify. You will partner closely with our Product, Engineering, Finance, Strategy, Customer Experience and Marketing teams to improve business performance and deliver the best product to our customers.
This role is based out of our NYC office. Below we've reflected the base salary range we would offer for this position. Actual salaries may vary depending on factors including, but not limited to location, experience, and performance. The range listed is just one component of Betterment's total compensation package for employees.

We offer a competitive equity package, health, dental and vision benefits, life and AD&D, short-term and long-term disability insurance, EAP, commuter and parking benefits FSA/HSA, and 401(k) with employer match as well as a flexible PTO policy. This job may also be eligible for variable compensation in the form of a company incentive bonus. For jobs based out of our NYC HQ, we require in office attendance Tuesday through Thursday, weekly.
