Wonderschool Data Lead at Wonderschool responsible for building the canonical data model and delivering state-mandated data work for government partners. Hands-on role involving SQL, model shipping, data loading, and pipeline debugging.
Responsibilities
We are hiring a Data Lead to build the data foundation the whole company runs on: our commercial product, our government platform, and the AI agents that coach and support providers at scale.
This is a deeply hands-on role. You will write SQL, ship models, load data, and debug pipelines yourself every day. You will own two things that are really one problem: a single, trusted model of our providers, children, and families, and the delivery of state-mandated data work (Data Hub integration, legacy migration, identity resolution) for our government partners.
Get this right and every agent, dashboard, and coaching interaction gets smarter. This role reports directly to the CEO.
Build the canonical data model for providers, sites, children, and families across BigQuery, HubSpot, Stripe, and our product databases. One ID, one definition, one source of truth
Structure our data so AI agents can read it and act on it: entity tables, snapshots, and pre-computed briefings that power provider coaching at scale
Own data delivery for our state government platform: bi-directional Data Hub sync, historical licensing data migration, staging-to-prod loads, validation, and governance sign-off
Lead identity resolution and deduplication across legacy state systems so every provider and child has one accurate record
Define and document the metrics the business runs on, from "active provider" to churn risk, and make them self-serve for operations and provider success teams
Set the data quality bar: monitoring, alerting, lineage, and handling of sensitive data in line with government agreements
Use agents to automate your own workflows first, then help other teams do the same with their data questions
What Success Looks Like
State data loads pass validation and acceptance without heroics
