Lemonade

Not your everyday company

Lemonade completely reinvented how insurance works. As a customer-centric tech company, we created an insurance experience that is smart, instant, and delightful.

At Lemonade, you’ll be working with a group of like-minded makers, who get a kick out of moving fast and delivering great products. We surround ourselves with some of the smartest, most motivated, creative people who are filled with positive energy and good karma.

Unlike most publicly traded companies, we’re nimble and efficient. We take pride in the fact that we still think and operate like a startup. We don’t care much about titles and hierarchy and instead focus on innovation, bold moves, and challenging the status quo.

We’re built as a lean, data-driven organization that relies on a common understating of objectives and goals to provide teams with autonomy and ownership. We don’t like spending our days in meetings and we skip committees altogether. At Lemonade, there’s no such thing as going over someone’s head. We have zero tolerance for bureaucracy, office politics, and lean-back personalities.

As a Public Benefit Corporation and a certified B-Corp, we deliver environmental and social impact using our products and tech. Through our Giveback program, we partner with organizations such as the ACLU, New Story, The Humane Society, Malala Fund, American Red Cross, 360.org, charity: water, and dozens of others, and have donated millions towards reforestation, education, animal rights, LGBTQ+ causes, access to water, and more.

We're looking for a Data Warehouse Tech Lead to drive the technical vision and execution of our data infrastructure that powers decision-making across all of Lemonade.

You'll lead both the technology and the business coordination for our data warehouse — architecting scalable solutions while working closely with stakeholders and data providers to ensure our platform serves the entire organization's needs. This role combines deep technical leadership with strategic business partnership as we build Lemonade's next-generation data stack.

We believe three things matter for every role at Lemonade: drive to push through challenges, efficiency that keeps standards high while moving fast, and adaptability that lets you pivot with data and AI insights. These aren't buzzwords, they're how we actually work.

Our AI-first approach isn't just a tagline either. We're building the future of insurance with AI at the center, and we need people who are genuinely excited to learn and grow alongside these tools.

In this role you'll

• Lead technical architecture — design and develop scalable data warehouse solutions that support multiple products and serve the entire organization's analytics needs
• Manage the technical roadmap — set strategy and guide execution for the Data Warehouse team, ensuring our platform evolves with business requirements
• Drive business process coordination — translate business needs into technical requirements while establishing clear data contracts with R&D, Analytics, and external data providers
• Establish and implement best practices — set technical standards for data warehouse architecture, performance tuning, and development methodologies that guide the entire team's approach to building scalable data solutions
• Create and maintain sustainable data pipelines — build resilient systems capable of handling unstructured data and managing an evolving schema registry across diverse data sources
• Implement advanced data modeling — create robust data structures using methodologies like dimensional modeling, and optimize ETL/ELT processes for our semantic layer
• Establish data quality standards — build processes for schema evaluation, anomaly detection, and monitoring data completeness and freshness across all sources
• Lead cross-team collaboration — work directly with Data Engineers, ML Platform Engineers, Data Scientists, Analysts, and Product Managers to align technical solutions with business goals

What you'll need

• 7+ years as a BI Engineer or Data Engineer, with 2+ in a technical leadership or architect role
• Proven experience managing complex data warehouses that serve multiple products and entire organizations
• Strong expertise in data modeling, ELT development, and data warehouse methodologies
• Advanced SQL skills and hands-on experience with Snowflake or similar cloud-native data warehouse platforms
• Extensive experience with dbt for data transformation and modeling
• Python and software development experience (a strong plus)
• Excellent communication skills — you can mentor technical team members and explain complex data concepts to business stakeholders
• Ready to work in an office environment most days of the week
• Enthusiasm about learning and adapting to the exciting world of AI – a commitment to exploring this field is a fundamental part of our culture
