Chime
is hiring
Senior/Lead Data Analyst, Strategy & Finance
About Our Company
Chime was created with the mission to make financial peace of mind a reality for millions of everyday people. We're one of the fastest-growing financial technology companies in the U.S., offering banking services that are helpful, easy, and free—because we want to profit with our members, not from them. Our model doesn’t rely on overdraft, monthly service, minimum balance, or other member fees—it just focuses on delivering member value.
How does Chime work? We partner with regional banks to design member-first financial products. This creates a more competitive market with better, lower-cost options for everyday Americans who aren’t being served well by traditional banks. We offer access to bank accounts with fee-free overdraft, provide members the chance to receive early access to their paychecks, help them improve their credit, and more!
We help drive innovation, inclusion, and access across the industry with one of the most experienced leadership teams in fintech guiding us along the way. We were recently valued at over $25.5B and we’ve raised over $1.7B in funding from leading investors including Sequoia Capital Global Equities, SoftBank Vision Fund 2, General Atlantic, Tiger Global, Dragoneer, DST, Coatue, Iconiq, Menlo Ventures and others.
Working at Chime means keeping our values in mind, putting our members first, and striving for long-term growth and success. To that end, we’re building an inclusive workplace where all perspectives and experiences are welcome on our team and creating an environment where every Chimer can thrive. If you’re passionate about applying technology to the challenge of making financial health a reality for everyone, Chime in–we want to hear from you! 💚

Job Description & Responsibilities
You will build and be responsible for the organizational process, technical infrastructure, and statistical techniques to forecast Chime’s member funnel. Your success in this role will enable Chime to predictably grow and make investments in new product and marketing areas. This role is a mix of analytics engineering work (building a data system to generate, store, and analyze forecasts) and analytics insights work (understanding the why of changes and helping Finance implement changes based on your analysis).
In this role, you can expect to
- Implement new forecasting processes and continue to improve and refine system over time
- Scenario plan with leadership under different assumptions (i.e. how does investing in one area translate into business metric improvement)
- Keep pulse on financial KPIs and unit economics. Unlike anyone else, you will be aware of changes in Chime’s key financial and business performance metrics and will be building the understanding for why.
- Be an arbiter of truth with data. You’ll use data to help the organization understand how members are interacting with Chime.
- Partner widely. You’ll work hand-in-hand with the Finance team and collaborate with stakeholders across Marketing, Product, Operations & Member Experience, and Risk. The stronger these partnerships, the more successful you and Chime will be.
- Ask why a lot. Your proactive inquisitiveness, supported by your data dexterity, means you’re leading first-of-its-kind analyses.
Requirements
To thrive in this role, you have
- 5+ years in data-focused roles, performing analyses or building data tools that support an executive audience and facilitate decisions of trade-offs.
- Proficiency in financial metrics and how investors evaluate business performance.
- Extensive stakeholder management experience and a Northstar for how Analytics partners with business units.
- Expertise in SQL - you innately translate business questions to queries, understand the edge cases of joins, and with dexterity explore a warehouse to find data most appropriate to the problem.
- Expertise in R or python - you write reproducible code and have a tendency toward automation.
- Sound statistical inference skills, with the ability to communicate uncertainty appropriately to business partners.
- A focus on impact - you don’t stop with just recommendations but ensure to see work through to changing the business.
