Empassion is one of the most impactful and exciting start ups in health care. We are focused on improving the experience and lowering costs for seniors at end of life. Specifically, we provide palliative and hospice care for seniors with serious illness and high risk of an over-medicalized death. This population is highly neglected in the current market.
Empassion clients are payers and risk-bearing entities and we work with community palliative and hospice partners to deliver superior outcomes. We are live today across 44 states and growing rapidly.
Empassion is a hybrid remote/in-person company, with headquarters in NYC. We prioritize asynchronous work and communication but are quick to get on a call, Zoom, or even flight if the situation requires higher fidelity discussion. You will have the opportunity to spend time with colleagues in person, including an all-team offsite 1-2x per year (location varies).
What your experience will be:
The Data & Analytics team is a high-impact, high-visibility team that works cross-functionally with the entire organization. We are creating a robust, flexible, and modern analytics platform that is core to delivering the company's technology and service capabilities. The Data Analyst will report directly to the Director of Data & Analytics. They will work alongside a team of experienced Analytics Engineers and Data Analysts to build out and maintain robust data pipelines and analytics solutions to better understand our patient population using a combination of SQL, dbt, and Looker. They will partner closely with our Growth, Product-Dev, Ops, and Finance teams to deliver explanatory and actionable insights as we work to improve the care our patients receive.
How work affects my life:
We are a remote company, fully distributed across the United States. We prioritize asynchronous work and communication but are quick to get on a call, Zoom, or even flight if the situation requires higher fidelity discussion.
At Empassion, you will learn to focus on a later stage of life. You will build an understanding and worth for what the end-of-life experience means. While challenging, it's humbling and centering. Your time will be dedicated to helping people have more good days. This transcends to a more profound value of your present life and how you choose to spend your days
Why you belong here and how you will grow:
This is a hybrid NYC based opportunity to support the buildout of Empassion's analytics platform and to be part of a passionate, skilled, and committed team working together to realize our shared vision. We pride ourselves on providing accurate, timely, and actionable data to our internal and external users. We hold ourselves to a high standard that respects the impact our data and analytics can have on a patient's course of care.
The Data & Analytics team is composed of specialists who can flex across different types of work as needed. The Data Analyst will be designing and building analytics models, reports, and dashboards to enable and empower Empassion and our customers to better understand their patients. We strive to build sustainable data products that our users can operate themselves day-to-day, but are highly responsive when the business has additional data needs and questions.
We are a remote first company, fully distributed across the United States, with a hybrid in-person option for those based in NYC, meeting 2x per week. We prioritize our work activities weekly and hold ourselves accountable to deliverables. We use Slack as a team and have regular Zoom touch points. We have full team offsites 2x per year and additional travel as needed (both to improve work productivity and build team trust).
We are dedicated to cultivating relationships built for trust and meaningful experiences that promote your growth. We recognize the value of autonomy, flexibility, and ownership while not losing sight of the importance of real-life experiences. We do not accept anything less than respectful, supportive, and growth-oriented teammates.
