Day to day, you will work with Product to help improve our EHR platform, through analyses of metrics, trends and experimentation. You will also dig into billing workflows, identify where things break down, and help teams make informed conclusions that improve accuracy, reduce friction, and support sustainable growth. This role sits within the Analytics organization and plays a critical part in helping Rula deliver a reliable, trustworthy experience for patients, therapists, and insurance companies.

  • Strong experience in working directly on A/B testing, including experiment design, deployment, and results interpretation
  • Deep understanding of financial metrics (e.g., CAC, billing, key accounts, retention, churn, LTV, etc.) and operational metrics (e.g. resolution time, product uptime) and experience translating data into actionable insights
  • Expert-level proficiency in Python and/or SQL to model predictive analytics, as well as hands-on expertise utilizing data visualization tools (Looker, Tableau, Hex, etc.)

Preferred Qualifications

While having the preferred qualifications enhances your candidacy, having all of them is not mandatory. We encourage all interested applicants to apply, even those who may not meet every preferred requirement.
  • Experience within a fast-paced, high-growth startup environment with the ability to handle dynamic and shifting analytical priorities
  • Expertise proposing and executing operational efficiency experimentation
  • Prior experience in healthcare, marketplace or financial services operations
  • Ability to connect analytics insights to business strategy, influencing financial and operational decisions that drive profitable growth

We're serious about your well-being! As part of our team, full-time employees receive:
  • 100% remote work environment: Working hours to support a healthy work-life balance, ensuring you can meet both professional and personal commitments (must be based in United States, currently not hiring in Hawaii)

  • Comprehensive health benefits: Medical, dental, vision, life, disability, and FSA/HSA
  • 401(k) plan access: Start saving for your future
