Team: Data & Analytics
🚀 About Fig
Fig is building a digital food-as-medicine platform to help anyone with complex dietary needs live an easier, healthier life around food. We’re an early-stage startup backed by Sequoia, Artis Ventures, Goodwater Capital, and Correlation Ventures — already helping over 1,000,000+ users find food that fits their needs.
Our app helps people with dietary restrictions — from food allergies to chronic conditions — navigate grocery stores and restaurants. Users love us (4.7 stars in the app stores), and our impact is real:
“THANK YOU!! It is sometimes such a struggle to find PCOS-compliant snacks, ingredients, etc. This app has truly changed my life in the 2 weeks I’ve had it!”
We’re looking for a Staff Data Engineer to help us build the foundational data infrastructure that powers everything from our recommendation engine to user insights and operational reporting.
