Meet GetUpside:

We created GetUpside to help communities thrive! Our retail technology uses the sophistication of online retail—profit measurement, attribution, and incrementality—to provide users with more value on their everyday purchases and brick and mortar businesses with new, profitable customers. We’ve helped millions of users earn 2 to 3 times more cash back than any other product, and tens of thousands of brick and mortar businesses earn measurable profit. Billions of dollars in commerce run through the GetUpside platform every year, and that value goes directly back to our local retailers, the consumers they serve, and towards important sustainability initiatives. Our mission, values, and commitment to inclusivity guide our team of more than 200 people worldwide, and the quality of our culture is reflected in the impact we’ve had on communities nationwide.

Meet our Engineering Team:

Our Engineering Team is a close-knit group of hardworking, fast-learning individuals that believes in our mission to help communities thrive. We believe in a data-driven approach to decision-making and an encouraging culture that emphasizes learning from our mistakes. We debate and deliberate on the best ideas to improve our tech stack, and strive for an inclusive atmosphere that champions the psychological wellness of all of our teammates.

About the role:

Our data team is growing! From its earliest days of a couple core data sets in Snowflake, to an end-to-end holistic data product with thousands of data models, our data platform is on an exponential growth curve, and GetUpside’s appetite for data has grown right along with it. This individual will join a small data engineering group enabling engineering teams and business teams to better utilize data and make daily decisions that drive the business. They'll interface across the company, iterate quickly to respond to business needs, and help maintain order in our data products. Plus, as an early member of the team, they'll help set the direction for the analytics engineering team and GetUpside as a whole.
