At Lyft, our purpose is to serve and connect. We aim to achieve this by cultivating a work environment where all team members belong and have the opportunity to thrive. The People Analytics team at Lyft exists to build data trust — turning people data into clear, reliable insights that help our HR Business Partners, talent leaders, and executives make better decisions. We're a small, high-impact team in the middle of a meaningful BI transformation: we recently moved to ThoughtSpot as our primary analytics platform, and we're not just replicating old dashboards — we're rethinking what self-service analytics looks like for a People team. That includes exploring ThoughtSpot's AI capabilities to surface proactive insights, enable natural language querying, and reduce the friction between a business question and a data answer. There's real greenfield work here, and we're looking for someone who wants to help define what AI-powered people analytics looks like at Lyft. We're looking for a Data Analyst to join our People Analytics team, based in Toronto. You'll report to the Senior Manager, People Analytics and serve as the first point of contact for incoming data requests across the People organization — triaging, scoping, and delivering on analytical needs ranging from quick ad-hoc pulls to fully built ThoughtSpot dashboards. This role is well-timed: you'll be joining as we complete our migration from Tableau to ThoughtSpot, which means you'll have genuine influence over how we build our reporting layer and push into ThoughtSpot's AI features — think natural language search, AI-generated insights, and proactive anomaly detection applied to people data. This isn't a "maintain the dashboard" role. It's a chance to help build something new. You'll be a self-starter who is equally comfortable writing SQL and presenting findings to a VP.

Data and analytics are at the heart of Lyft Business's products and decision-making. We're looking to hire a Data Analyst to support our Self-Serve segment — the fastest-growing part of Lyft's B2B portfolio, serving small and mid-size businesses across North America. This is a hands-on role for an analyst who is energized by turning product and customer data into insights that shape strategy — and who builds those insights on a foundation others can trust and reuse. You will be the dedicated analytical partner to the Self-Serve product team, measuring how new features — a redesigned signup experience, onboarding improvements, and lifecycle campaigns — drive customer activation and growth. You'll own the funnel from acquisition through engagement, define the metrics that matter, and deliver the insights that inform where the business invests next. The ideal candidate pairs analytical rigor with a builder's instinct — turning recurring questions into well-defined, reusable datasets instead of one-off answers — and can translate findings into a clear narrative for both technical and non-technical audiences. Responsibilities: Produce high-impact analyses on Self-Serve performance that directly inform product and go-to-market strategy Own the Self-Serve funnel — acquisition, signup, onboarding, and engagement — building the dashboards and datasets that give the team real-time visibility into product health Define what the team's core metrics mean and where they live, so every dashboard, report, and tool returns the same answer to the same question Partner closely with Product and Engineering to validate instrumentation and surface data gaps before they distort the funnel or new features launch — catching the data quality issues that stay invisible until someone goes looking Turn recurring reporting into w
