Data Analyst

About the role

The Data Analyst will play a key role in supporting Hippo’s Business Enablement & Insights function by driving analytics across Portfolio Management and Partner Programs, helping business leaders understand portfolio performance, profitability, risk exposure, partner performance, and operational outcomes to inform strategic decision-making and drive business growth.

This role goes beyond traditional reporting—focusing on translating complex data into actionable insights that drive profitable growth, operational efficiency, and risk-aware decision-making. The analyst will partner closely with leaders across business domains to monitor performance, diagnose drivers, and identify opportunities to optimize outcomes across the business.

As part of a centralized analytics team, this individual will help ensure consistent metrics, strong data foundations, and high-impact insights that directly support Hippo’s strategic and financial goals.

About You

• You bring strong analytical skills and experience in business analytics across growth (GTM) and/or insurance domains such as retention, underwriting, and claims.
• You act like an owner: going beyond reporting to identify trends, diagnose root causes, and recommend clear, actionable next steps.
• You are detail-oriented and proactive, continuously looking for opportunities to improve performance.
• You thrive in cross-functional environments, embrace diverse perspectives to sharpen your thinking, and communicate insights in ways that resonate with stakeholders across the business — because you know that the best results come from being in it together.
