About KIPP TEAM & Family

KIPP TEAM & Family is our network office that includes support teams - such as Leadership Development, Recruitment, Advocacy, Facilities, Finance, HR and more - dedicated to empowering our schools and ensuring the success of KIPP students throughout New Jersey and Miami. Our schools are part of the nationally recognized “Knowledge Is Power Program” network of free, open-enrollment, college-preparatory public schools dedicated to preparing students for success in college and in life in our schools located in Newark, NJ, Camden,NJ, Paterson, NJ, and South Florida.

Job Description

KIPP TEAM & Family’s Data, Technology and Innovation Team (DTI) seeks a Data Analyst to develop and maintain trusted dashboards and reports across academics, student operations and enrollment, and compliance. You will work directly with leaders to build data products that help our students on their path to college, careers and choice-filled lives.

Our stack includes SQL, dbt, the Cube semantic layer, Tableau, Git and Claude, to name a few. Our analytics engineering work runs through an AI-assisted development workflow with version control and code review.

Develop and Maintain Data Models (25%)

  • Build, test and document dbt models and Cube semantic-layer metrics in our shared repository
  • Ship work through our development cycle: branches, pull requests, code review and automated checks
  • Use AI-assisted tools like Claude to work faster, while verifying every output and protecting student privacy

Support Users and Drive Improvement Cycles (15%)

  • Work directly with stakeholders, from teachers to board members, to integrate their feedback and build data products people can use effectively    
  • Manage life cycle of project intake and request tracking for data products
Qualifications

Must Haves

  • Love of data, problem-solving, and collaboration, and a drive to learn

  • Deep commitment to both racial and educational equity
  • Strong SQL skills
  • Experience with Tableau or other business intelligence tools
  • Experience with K-12 academic or operations data

  • Model KIPP TEAM & Family’s Be The Change values: Kid Focus, Radical Love, Excellence, Team & Fun

Preferred

  • 3+ years in a K-12 school operations, data, or technology role
  • Experience with dbt or a similar transformation framework, or with a semantic layer such as Cube
  • Comfort with Git and GitHub workflows: pull requests, code review and CI/CD
  • Hands-on experience with AI-assisted coding tools (e.g., Claude Code)
  • Experience with BI-as-code tools or Python for data work
  • Experience with a cloud data warehouse (BigQuery preferred)
  • Experience with student enrollment or state compliance reporting
