Data Full Stack

Hello there, we're Alan. Alan exists to reimagine the health system by creating a better experience centered on the user. Alan is a subscription to better living, where health is a part of the way you want to live, not a restriction on your way of living. Alan is your friend in health and your partner in the system. Our flagship product is a delightful health insurance that covers people in France, Belgium, and Spain.

⭐️ The Data team ⭐️

Being part of Alan's data team means you'll have a positive impact on people's health and wellbeing. We create insights to help our colleagues focus on what is most impactful. We build features and tools powered by data that directly help our members. Examples include: going deep into health consumption patterns, understanding our product usage, creating visibility to help our sales team perform, automating how we reimburse our members, building reminders that help our members stay healthy...

We believe in having a full stack approach. Each one of us contributes to all 3 aspects of the data spectrum (analytics, engineering, science). This encourages strong ownership and drives impact.

We own our infrastructure. We pride ourselves on a nimble data stack that gives us the flexibility we need. We're mainly using SQL, Python, R, Airflow, Snowflake, and Metabase. We build in-house tooling to organize our data and serve it to the rest of the company.

⭐️ Expected skills and abilities ⭐️

We are looking for all levels of seniority:

• If you are at the beginning of your data journey, you'll have the opportunity to take ownership of projects quickly and grow in a healthy environment.
• The more experience you have (or gain once you join us), the broader the scope, size and complexity of projects you'll handle. You'll also have the opportunity to directly support the growth of other members of the team.

You would thrive at Alan if most of this sounds like you:

• Passionate about owning ambitious problems and developing simple solutions for them
• Experience or willingness to grow in all 3 aspects of the data spectrum (analytics, engineering, science) being specialized in one of these areas is good too!
• Proficient in SQL, Python and/or R
• Setting a high standard of rigor and precision for yourself, interested in your craft
• Great listening and communication skills
• Humble, kind, collaborative, and still willing to grow (no matter your seniority!)
• Fluent and clear in English, both oral and written (no need to speak French!)

Impostor syndrome: if this description matches what you'd like to grow into and not necessarily where you are now, we encourage you to apply.

⭐️ The Alan Method ⭐️

We have a set of cultural values that translate into our approach to work:

• We shoot for the moon, then roll backwards. We think longterm and carefully plan where we allocate our resources. We dare to dream and turn our failures into learnings in a caring environment.
• We tell and share everything. We have a strong written culture and put a lot of love in our internal documentation. We trust each other and do almost all our communication in public. All of our decisions and dashboards are accessible to every Alaner.
• We grow as individuals while we are developing the company.
• We are kind to each other and praise one another. We also do not shy away from telling the hard truths and sharing feedback with empathy to help us grow.
• We encourage Alaners to learn new skills and grow internally.

We strive to make our culture as inclusive as possible, and believe that both the company and its culture are stronger when composed of diverse experiences and backgrounds. As a few examples of how we put this value into action:

• We have an open salary & equity policy combined with a transparent career path: we base our people decisions on objective criteria.
• We have flexible working hours and leave policy.
• We trust people to work remotely (we are a "work from anywhere" company).
• We are committed to the wellbeing of parents. For instance we set paternity leave at 5 weeks minimum and up to 5 months, 100% salary paid.

Alaners are provided a stimulating environment for them to focus on their work in a serene manner. Therefore, we offer:

• Competitive compensation packages, along with meaningful equity.
• An awesome office in the center of Paris.
• Relocation packages for our international candidates.
• A great healthcare program for employees residing in France, Belgium, and Spain (you guessed it right, it's Alan!).
• Flexible and remotefriendly work environment.
• The necessary equipment for you to do your best work (noise cancelling Headphones, a Macbook Pro, secondary screen, etc.).
• You can have them at home, in case you are working remotely.
• And a lot more great stuff (feel free to ask!).
