Who We Are

We’re a collaborative, high-quality team of dog-lovers that solves problems with thoughtfulness, empathy, and speed. We have a big dream: to build a generational company that remakes the pet health & wellness industry nationally. We’re a fun, ambitious group that is working to build something new in pet care.

If you’re ready to build the future of pet care with high standards and speed, come on board. We need exceptional people to help us build something new in the world.

 

About This Role

We're looking for a highly skilled Tableau Contractor who can turn spec sheets, wireframes, and SQL queries into beautiful, functional dashboards—fast. If you thrive in high-velocity environments, sweat the details, and care deeply about accuracy and design, this could be a great fit.

 

As our Tableau Contractor, your work will help drive data-backed decision-making across the company. You’ll own the process end-to-end—from interpretation of requirements to production-ready dashboards—and collaborate closely with team members for same-day fixes and rapid iterations. We’re looking for someone who combines technical know-how with clean design sensibility, and can work independently while staying aligned with branding and coding best practices.

 

Role & Responsibilities

• Translate spec sheets, BigQuery SQL queries, and wireframes into interactive Tableau dashboards

• Deliver functional dashboards within 1–2 day turnaround, including same-day iterations as needed

• Ensure data accuracy and validate your own work prior to publishing

• Implement corporate branding, design best practices, and maintain consistency across dashboards

• Iterate quickly based on internal feedback and shifting requirements

• Communicate effectively with internal teams to understand data goals and context

Qualifications & Experience

• Portfolio showcasing clean, dynamic Tableau dashboards

• Expertise with Tableau features like calculated fields, parameters, table calcs, hierarchies, local/global filters, and tiled layouts

• Deep understanding of design principles, including maximizing data-to-ink ratio

• Expert-level BigQuery SQL proficiency

• Must have at least 4–6 hours overlap with 9AM–3PM Pacific Time. This role will start at 30 hours per week.

• Must be both a people and dog lover!

 

Who You Are:

• You’re Fast + Precise: You can move quickly without sacrificing accuracy

• You’re a Design Thinker: You know how to balance data, function, and form

• You’re a Self-Starter: You take ownership and run with it, but you’re not afraid to ask clarifying questions

• You’re Detail-Obsessed: You care deeply about clean visuals, proper filters, and intuitive UX

 

Compensation

• Competitive Hourly Rate, based on experience. 

 

Equal Opportunity

• Barkbus is an equal-opportunity employer who celebrates diversity. Come as you are.
