Practicing the Way is hiring a
Remote Data Integration + Insights Engineer (Part-Time)
Skillset
The Data Integration & Insights Engineer helps us connect and make sense of the many streams of data that support our mission. From our PostgreSQL-based platform and Planning Center to Salesforce, this role brings together information from across the organization to create a clearer picture of how people are engaging with the practices of Jesus and how we can serve them more intentionally.
This role requires someone who’s both technically capable and collaborative —someone who can navigate APIs and data models, but also enjoys partnering with others to solve real problems. You’ll work closely with the Pathways, Church Formation, Invitation, and Generosity & Prayer teams to turn raw data into meaningful insights.
A mix of problem-solving, and attention to detail is essential. You’ll need to move between writing clean scripts, troubleshooting bugs, and translating technical output into something accessible and actionable. You’ll collaborate often with our Technology Lead and other team leads to build trustworthy systems, maintain data health, and bring clarity to the work we’re doing across the organization.
- The Technology Lead to shape system architecture, maintain data integrity, and manage integrations
- Pathways, Church Formation, Invitation, and Generosity & Prayer teams to identify data needs and translate them into solutions
- Leadership, to support strategic visibility and organization-wide decision-making
- Salesforce admins and developers to improve the flow and accessibility of data across systems
Connect and organize data across systems
- Write SQL queries to pull and structure data from our PostgreSQL database (churches, users, groups, SHR, Rule of Life, etc.)
- Use JavaScript or similar scripting languages to call APIs gather data from systems like Planning Center and Salesforce
- Build one-time or reusable scripts to process, filter, and merge data for reports, follow-up lists, or internal needs as they arise
- Build and maintain dashboards (Google Looker Studio, Salesforce, or Google Sheets) that surface meaningful data for the right teams
- Automate recurring reports and metrics that help track participation, engagement, giving, or growth over time
- Provide clean data exports or summaries to help teams send thank-yous, identify opportunities, and better care for people
- Troubleshoot bugs and system limitations when things break or need refinement
- Understand the data being gathered in order to judge the accuracy of queries, and respond to follow-up questions about the data from stakeholders
- Maintain a clear and organized documentation trail so teammates can use the tools with confidence
You’re rooted in Jesus
- 3–5+ years of experience working with data, engineering, or analytics
- Confident writing SQL and working with relational databases (PostgreSQL experience is a plus)
- Comfortable using JavaScript, Python, or similar tools to build lightweight scripts and automate data work
- Experience with Salesforce, or similar CMS / database
- Familiar with data visualization and reporting tools like Google Looker Studio or Salesforce dashboards
- Strong communication skills—you know how to translate technical details into clear takeaways for others
- Familiarity with Planning Center is a plus
- You work well independently, stay organized, and enjoy helping others solve real-world problems
