What sets us apart? We've built the most advanced location intelligence platform in the market while maintaining an uncompromising commitment to privacy, proving that powerful analytics and responsible data practices can coexist.
Our growth reflects the market's demand: we reached $100M in annual recurring revenue within just 6 years of launching, achieved unicorn status with a $1B+ valuation in 2022, and continue to expand rapidly as one of North America's fastest-growing tech companies. We're creating a $100B+ market opportunity, and we're just getting started.
Named one of Forbes America's Best Startup Employers and a Deloitte Technology Fast 500 company, we're building a culture where innovation thrives, collaboration is the norm, and every team member contributes to reshaping how the world understands location.
The Data Quality team sits at the intersection of data, R&D, and the business. We investigate complex data questions, validate the quality and reliability of Placer’s data products, and help our customer-facing teams understand what the data is telling us - and, just as importantly, when something doesn’t make sense.
We’re looking for a Senior Data Analyst who genuinely enjoys working with data. Someone who loves investigating, solving puzzles, opening a dataset just to see what’s inside, and doesn’t stop at finding what happened but wants to understand why it happened.
A big part of the job is hands-on investigation in Databricks - writing code, creating notebooks, exploring large datasets, testing hypotheses, and following the data until you understand the story behind it. If reading data sometimes feels more like a hobby than a task, you’ll probably enjoy this role.
This role requires strong analytical judgment and an exceptional approach to QA. In an era where AI tools can generate code and analyses faster than ever, we care deeply about the ability to challenge the output, identify inconsistencies, ask the right questions, and determine whether the answer actually makes sense.
This is also a highly business-oriented role. You’ll work closely with our Commercial teams, understand customer questions from their perspective, and translate complex data findings into clear, actionable answers. For those interested, there are also opportunities to join customer conversations directly.
