Panda is a Helsinki-based early-stage coaching automation startup on a mission to help people become better versions of themselves week by week. Our vision is a world where leaders see a 10x return from investing in their people. Panda makes the usually expensive service of business coaching accessible to all - not just top management.
We are building a new way for businesses to take care of their employees’ development through automated coaching - informed by insights from psychology and adult education. All without leaving their normal workspace in Teams/Slack or using additional apps.
We have recently raised funding from Gorilla Capital and a group of angels who share our vision about a more accessible form of coaching.
We are still early, so don’t be too worried about all of the responsibilities or technologies. Roles can be crafted to fit your interests and personal abilities. We look at your future outlook, not just your current skills.
Key Responsibilities
As a Data Analyst at Panda you will:
Design, develop and evaluate recurring and ad hoc reporting to monitor Business KPIs.
Create visualizations, dashboards, and reports to help us understand our users as well as the performance of the platform.
Be tasked with pulling data, analyzing and turning it into actionable insight.
Develop data collection processes and data management systems.
Document processes & regularly update existing SOP’s.
Support daily, weekly, and monthly business reporting.
Next-level career development expectations
Taking an active role in making strategic decisions about our product's development. It's too early for us to be set in our ways.
Building better processes for gathering data about our customers’ and users’ needs
Relevant technologies and keywords
Experience in process improvement, DMAIC and/or process redesign, NoSQL, statistics, Data visualization frameworks, Tableau/QuickSight or other visualization platforms, Experience with MongoDB, Python, and HTML.
We are looking at how you work - more than what you know.
You thrive in uncertainty
With us being very early on, things are bound to change quickly. We hope you are able to act proactively and independently in a role where not everything is fully defined. Maybe you can be part of defining it yourself.
You are a natural learner
Learning is at the very core of our product - so the drive to learn proactively and on the fly is also something that we value in each and every person we work with.
You care about our mission
We’d love it if you cared about improving people’s lives and helping them become better versions of themselves. :-)
You are honest and caring
None of us is infallible and we are bound to go in the wrong direction from time to time. Calling out faulty assumptions, letting us know when we’re going the wrong direction, and owning up to mistakes is important to us. But even more important is helping people learn from those mistakes.
We are unable to let you train Pandas, but we do offer:
A caring and equitable workplace
Strict hierarchies aren’t really our thing so we want to make sure everyone has a voice and feels at home. Our small team already has four different nationalities so we are committed to welcoming everyone regardless of their background.
We are flexible and fully remote
Where you come from doesn’t matter. We are building a fully remote organization to fit modern needs. Living that nomadic lifestyle that doesn’t fit with the usual 9 to 5? That’s all good with us. Work is supposed to serve your life, not the other way around.
Something to pay the bills + equity
Apart from receiving a solid salary, you will also be part of our employee stock option plan. We have not set it up yet, but we will soon!
Grow with us and have an impact early
Panda is still early on so you’ll have a chance to have a real impact on the way we help our users as well as how our organization is built. This means there’s also an opportunity to progress while we grow.
