About us

At Arbor, we’re on a mission to transform the way schools work for the better.

You’ve probably seen the headlines. Heavy workloads, constant change, admin pressure on teachers and staff at every level… sometimes it feels like this is just part and parcel of school life today. But it doesn’t have to be this way.

We passionately believe that there’s a better way to work. And it starts by giving everyone the right tools and technology for the job.

We’re building a platform and products we believe in - as well as a strong, diverse team of experienced specialists, ex-teachers and Edtech engineers passionate about making a difference to the sector.

Ultimately, we’re here to help make our schools and trusts stress a little less, and focus on what matters most - improving the lives of teachers and outcomes of students everywhere.

About the role

Our Data function at Arbor centralises the data from all instances of the Arbor tool to a scalable modern data warehouse and delivers analytics and analytics-enablement to our customers including schools, local authorities and multi-academy trusts.

The Analytics Engineer role is responsible for developing the interfaces to our core data platform. This means owning and maintaining the data model, ensuring that analysts, customers and applications are able to access clean and analysis-ready data, and generally enabling the delivery of quality analytics for any downstream consumer.

  • Maintain interface between data platform and users/applications

  • Develop and document data model

  • Extensive experience writing SQL code for analytics use cases

  • Experience working on a modern data platform

  • A positive and proactive attitude to problem solving

  • A team player, who is willing to help where they can and can help foster further collaboration

  • Familiarity with a data warehousing tool e.g. Snowflake, BigQuery, Azure Synapse

  • Familiarity with a data visualisation or BI tool e.g. PowerBI, Looker, Metabase

  • Some understanding of modern software engineering principles
