Job description
About Empassion
Empassion is a Management Services Organization (MSO) focused on improving the quality of care and costs on an often neglected “Advanced illness/ end of life” patient population, representing 4 percent of the Medicare population but 25 percent of its costs. The impact is driven deeper by families who are left with minimal options and decreased time with their loved ones. Empassion enables increased access to tech-enabled proactive care while delivering superior outcomes for patients, their communities, the healthcare system, families, and society.
$100,000 - $140,000 a year
The Opportunity
Join our high-impact Data & Analytics team to shape a modern, flexible analytics platform that powers Empassion’s mission. As a Senior Data Analyst, you’ll collaborate with analytics engineers and cross-functional partners—Growth, Product, Operations, and Finance—to turn complex data into actionable insights. Using tools like SQL, dbt, and Looker, you’ll build pipelines, models, and dashboards that decode patient care journeys and amplify our value to partners. This is a chance to influence both internal strategy and external impact from day one.
What You’ll Do
🌟 Partner with teams across the business to pinpoint analytics needs and deliver solutions that solve real problems.
🔍 Dig into proprietary app data and third-party sources (e.g., medical claims) to map care journeys, assess provider performance, and fuel growth strategies.
👥 Support growth and partner strategy by analyzing medical claims to size opportunities, evaluate program impact, and surface insights that inform sales conversations and expansion priorities.
🚀 Enhance and scale data models with SQL and dbt, ensuring precision and adaptability for new partnerships.
📊 Craft intuitive Looker dashboards and Explores with LookML, empowering self-serve access to trusted metrics.
🤝 Team up with Product and Tech to evolve reporting as our platform grows, working in shared dev environments.
📝 Document processes and train users—technical and non-technical—to maximize tool adoption.
⏳ Balance your time across modeling (dbt), dashboarding (Looker), and ad hoc analysis.
What You’ll Bring
- 2–6 years in data analytics or analytics engineering, with a knack for turning data into insights and visuals that drive decisions.
- SQL mastery—writing efficient, reliable queries on complex datasets.
- Hands-on experience with dbt for modeling and Looker for dashboards/LookML.
- Strong communication to bridge technical and non-technical worlds—think engineers, operators, and external partners.
- A proactive mindset, thriving in a fast-paced setting with iterative problem-solving.
- Curiosity about operational workflows and a drive to partner with non-technical teams, ensuring data and reporting align with how the business actually runs. You’re not just a spec-taker, you’re part of the solution.
- Curiosity about healthcare workflows and a passion for patient impact.
- A collaborative spirit, eager to build scalable, user-friendly tools.
Bonus Points
- Knowledge of healthcare data (claims, ADT feeds, eligibility files).
- Experience with internally built apps alongside Product/Engineering teams.
- Familiarity with Git/GitHub for version control.
- Early-stage startup experience (seed/Series A), especially mission-driven ones.
