Why Shiftsmart

We're building the Amazon of labor. We're a labor platform pairing end-to-end workforce management technology with a rapidly growing global network of 4M flexible workers (ranked #3 in the App Store) to create scalable labor solutions for the largest companies and government agencies in the world like Walmart, PepsiCo, Starbucks, and Circle K. Our unique business model fractionalizes jobs down to shifts and makes it easy for workers to work across multiple employers through a digital marketplace. We're one of the fastest-growing scaleups in the country. We've grown 2-3x each year since we started and raised $120M+ from top-tier investors including D1 Capital & Imaginary Ventures…and we're only getting started.

Role overview

The mission of our Product team is to build best-in-class experiences that drive key business outcomes for Shiftsmart. We work closely with our cross-functional teams to determine how we can create technology-powered solutions across our Partner App and Employer Portal that move the needle for key metrics across our business.

As a Product Analyst, you will play a pivotal role in supporting product strategy and execution through data-driven insights. This role will collaborate with engineering, design, and operations teams to shape prioritization and direction of our product roadmap and enhance our ability to measure, analyze, and improve product performance. This role is crucial in developing actionable insights to optimize customer experiences and support revenue growth initiatives.

While prior product experience is not necessary, this role is a unique opportunity for an analytically-minded operator to grow within a product organization. If you're passionate about design and driven by results, you'll make a tangible impact on operational efficiency for national brands like Walmart, PepsiCo, Google, and Circle K.

Note: This is a New York City based role requiring 3 days per week in office

What you'll do

Your role will evolve over time but some of your early responsibilities will include:

  • Drive ROI Analytics: Develop and maintain custom dashboards and reports to monitor key performance metrics associated with new products that drive labor savings and in store sales for our enterprise customers

  • Build & Execute: Own analytics initiatives that support daily operations such as using data to identify opportunities for product invention and building reports to summarize, monitor, and illustrate progress

  • Experiment & Test: Design, execute, and analyze product and operational experiments with our customers to validate hypotheses and inform product direction and prioritization

  • Insights & Communication: Work closely with a cross functional team of operations leaders, software engineers, and designers to drive progress against the roadmap and share ROI insights both internally and externally

Who you are

You enjoy designing and understanding the business impact of new products. You are excited to work on a business with multiple stakeholders and unique product challenges.

  • Analytically-Minded: You have 3-5+ years experience in an analytical role (e.g. data analyst, bizops, consulting, investment banking), and ideally in startups

  • Results-Oriented: You are results-oriented, with a focus on driving measurable business impact and shaping product direction and relative prioritization based on insights gleaned from data

  • Technically Skilled: You have strong experience with both Google Sheets and SQL and can blend quantitative data with qualitative insights to test hypotheses.

  • Highly Organized: You think in systems and processes, relish bringing structure to ambiguity, ruthlessly prioritize, and feel that organized and hypothesis-driven analytics are second nature to you.

  • Clear Communicator: You are an excellent communicator, with the ability to present complex findings to a wide audience, including leadership; proven ability to manage and deliver on multiple projects simultaneously

  • Problem Solver: You thrive working through and solving complex problems, quickly learn and adapt to new situations, and synthesize the abstract into the concrete.

Operating Principles @ Shiftsmart

Inspired by Leadership Principles @ Amazon

Execution Is Binary

We #GetShiftDone. We take immense pride in both the quality of our work and our relentless determination to deliver on our commitments. If we say we are going to do something, we do it.

We own the outcome with an unstoppable mindset through the finish line and are impatient to move the ball forward. This means we work really hard, execute with urgency, and ruthlessly challenge timelines for anything important. As a result, we do not defer responsibility to other teams or individuals. Instead, we take the problem as far as we can and only when needed ask others for help.

Each time a crisis or opportunity emerges we take the hill as one team, because we are allergic to the words "it can't be done".

Missionaries, Not Mercenaries

We before me. We believe in our mission to build a better world for workers. We understand why our work matters and take seriously how it impacts our customers and our partners. This belief permeates everything we do from the strategic to the mundane.

We are energetic, ambitious, and want to win. We constantly raise the standards for ourselves and everyone around us. We show up for our customers, our partners, and most importantly our teammates, and make every effort to build lasting relationships with each of them.

We do not measure success based on our titles or the size of our empires. This also means we put the needs of the business before the details of our job descriptions. Rather than fight for a bigger piece of the pie, we fight to grow the entire thing and recognize this is how to grow our careers too.

Inputs > Outcomes

We work really hard. Fundamentally changing how labor works is not easy. It often requires long days, late nights, and weekends to deliver on our commitments. We lean into this challenge.

We focus on the process. We think in terms of value chains and appreciate that a bad process with a good outcome is simply dumb luck.

We lead with data. We use facts, not fiction, to build narratives and make decisions. To do this we prepare written memos in advance and resist the urge to engage in endless water cooler what ifs, because we value the time and attention of our teammates.

We hire and develop the best. When we decide to hire a new team member, we do so because we believe they will increase the talent density on our team. We view ourselves as leverage maximizers rather than inconvenience reducers and strive to increase the output of everyone we interact with.

Honesty Over Harmony

We share the truth even when it is painful. We do not, however, share the truth callously to hurt people's feelings or make them look bad. We also assume positive intent. If someone is not delivering in a way that we need, we ask them and tell them before assuming the worst.

We embrace mutual feedback. As people leaders we care more about our team's growth and success than how much others like us. As individuals we seek, accept, and apply feedback. We do not give or take feedback personally because we understand it enables us to learn and grow.

We tell the truth to ourselves. We reject a pollyannaish view of our world. Instead if something isn't going well that we are responsible for, we call it out. And when someone calls out their own truth that may be less optimal, we don't punish them for it.

We have the meeting in the meeting. If something is broken or we disagree, we call it out and say something in the moment even if it feels uncomfortable to do so. This means that if something is broken, we do not just accept it and complain later.

Invent & Iterate

We are inventors @ heart. We categorically reject the phrase "that is how it's always been done", and constantly discover new and better ways to do more with less. This means we are resourceful and often do things that don't scale, only to create ways to scale them later. We're builders.

We think BIG. At every level of the company, we embrace big, hairy, audacious, and transformative goals. We fear lack of progress and incremental thinking more than failing to deliver or falling short of an audacious goal. We believe courage means to try without fear and learn without ego.

We do not let perfect get in the way of better. When faced with the choice we prioritize delivering something, even if imperfect, over endless debate and alignment. We embrace good mistakes.
