🐦 About Birdie

At Birdie, we’re reimagining care for older adults. We’re building the technology that powers the future of home healthcare, empowering care teams with tools to deliver better, more dignified care, and enabling older people to thrive in their own homes for longer. Our all-in-one solution powers millions of care visits every month, equipping care providers with the tools they need to deliver exceptional, efficient care.

We’re not here to tinker at the edges. We’re here to radically transform a broken system.

That’s why we’ve built an all-in-one platform that supported over 60 million care visits and enabled care for 116,000 individuals in 2025, and we continue to grow our impact. We’re scaling fast, but staying true to our purpose. That’s why we’re proud to be a B Corp, using business as a force for good.

Founded in 2017, Birdie is backed by world-class investors like Index Ventures, Sofina and Omers. In 2023, we ranked #6 in the Deloitte Fast 50, making us one of the fastest-growing tech companies in the UK. You can check out more about our impact and recognition here.

But speed isn’t the point. Impact is.

⚡️ Your mission

As an Analytics Engineer at Birdie, your mission is to make our partner-facing analytics trustworthy, reliable, and genuinely useful. You will own the data models and dashboards that care providers depend on every day to understand how their teams are performing, turning complex care data into clear, accurate insight that drives better outcomes for older adults.

🦸‍♀️ How you will contribute

• Own the transformation layer: writing, testing, and maintaining dbt models that turn raw care data into reliable, well-documented data that the rest of the business and our partners can trust.

• Build and iterate on the Looker dashboards and LookML metrics that give care providers a clear view of their performance across Care Excellence, Operational Excellence, and Carer Experience.

• Take end-to-end ownership of one or more data domains, becoming the person who understands the data deeply enough to make good judgments about what our partners actually need to see.

• Proactively monitor and improve data quality, investigating issues before they reach partners, implementing testing standards that prevent regressions, and treating correctness as non-negotiable.

• Work closely with product managers, customer success, and other internal stakeholders to understand what metrics matter and why, building enough domain knowledge to challenge requirements as well as deliver them.

🤩 You'll thrive here if...

• You’ve got experience writing production-quality SQL and dbt models with a genuine understanding of testing strategies, incremental modelling, and documentation. You care about the difference between code that works and code that is maintainable

• You’ve built dashboards and metrics in Looker (or a comparable BI tool) and understand what it takes to make a metric trustworthy enough for an external customer to rely on

• You’ve owned a data domain end-to-end in a production environment, making decisions about grain, relationships, and naming without needing to be directed at every step

• You’re curious about the problems your work is solving, not just the technical implementation. You seek out context from stakeholders rather than waiting for a full brief

• You could explain a metric definition or a data quality issue to a care manager with no data background, and you don’t find that frustrating - you find it important!

• You’re comfortable operating in a small, fast-moving team where priorities shift and ambiguity is the norm. You deliver without needing close management and raise blockers early rather than quietly waiting for clarity

• You’re motivated by work that has a direct impact on people's lives. The data you build here is used by professionals caring for older adults, and that matters to you.

🧠 Imposter syndrome is real — and we don't expect you to tick every box. If you're excited about our mission and think you could make a difference here, we want to hear from you.
