AI is a fundamental part of how work gets done at Gusto. We expect all team members to actively engage with AI tools relevant to their role and grow their fluency as the technology evolves. AI experience requirements vary by role and will be assessed during the interview process.
About the Role
Gusto's Customer Experience team is changing how we serve small businesses: new service models, a telephony platform migration, and the data infrastructure to support both. We are hiring a Business Intelligence Analyst to own the data layer that makes this work.
You will work directly with CX leaders to identify and scope priorities, own the foundation of pipelines, data models, and dashboards that make CX data trustworthy, and use that foundation to answer causal questions about what actually moves customer outcomes. The strongest candidates pair real coding and statistical depth with the judgment to know which question is worth answering.
About the Team
CX Data and Insights is the analytical backbone of Gusto's Customer Experience organization. We define the metrics CX leaders run the business on, and we produce the analysis that shapes operational roadmap decisions.
Here’s what you’ll do day-to-day
- Lead: Own ambiguous problems, design analysis and measurement frameworks, and introduce policies and practices by which data integrity is monitored and enforced within your domain.
- Execution: Deliver multiple high-impact projects, balancing trade-offs to maximize business value, and maintain clear expectations of deliverables and timelines.
- Strategic Partnership: Partner with CX leaders, cross-function data-science teams, tool developers (i.e. Salesforce), and data engineering to align on strategy.
- Analytical Rigor: Apply advanced statistical methods and AI-driven anomaly detection to proactively uncover opportunities, diagnose performance issues, and shape CX strategy, separating signal from noise. Navigate messy, conflicting data sources to establish reliable sources of truth. Use AI to accelerate hypothesis generation, code drafting, cross-source reconciliation, validation, and build agents to automate repetitive tasks.
