  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including data analysts, data scientists, and software engineers to understand data requirements and design efficient and scalable data pipelines.
  • Develop and maintain data models that facilitate data consistency, integrity, and efficiency. Design and implement data warehouse schemas, ensuring proper partitioning to support the performance needs of analytical queries.
  • Monitor the performance of data pipelines and databases, identifying bottlenecks and inefficiencies and implement optimizations to enhance system performance and stability.
  • Contribute to the development of Whoop’s modern data stack which is built on cloud computing platforms (e.g. AWS, Azure, GCP), relational & non-relational databases (e.g. PostgreSQL, MySQL), data lakes, distributed databases (e.g. Snowflake, Redshift, BigQuery), and more.

This role is based in the WHOOP office located in Boston, MA. The successful candidate must be prepared to relocate if necessary to work out of the Boston, MA office.
Interested in the role, but don’t meet every qualification? We encourage you to still apply! At WHOOP, we believe there is much more to a candidate than what is written on paper, and we value character as much as experience.
