Thrive is a leading behavior change B2B SaaS company founded by Arianna Huffington in 2016 with the mission to end the stress and burnout epidemic. Thrive helps individuals and organizations improve well-being, performance, and mental resilience with its AI-powered behavior change technology platform. — small, science-backed steps to improve health and productivity — have been adopted by employees at more than 125 organizations in over 140 countries.

As a Data Engineer at Thrive, you will be a foundational architect and developer of a cloud data processing platform for a high-growth startup.

This challenge will exercise the entire range of your skillset as an engineer—which includes not only programming, but also the ability to gather requirements from stakeholders across the business to create a data engineering roadmap.
