Pie Insurance is an insurtech company tackling meaningful problems. At Pie, we work with small businesses using technology and innovation to improve how they access insurance. Like our small business clients, we are a diverse team of builders, dreamers, and entrepreneurs. So, at the heart of every decision we make is the idea that if it doesn’t serve our clients, it doesn’t serve us. 

The Workforce Analyst will build and scale our first Workforce Management (WFM) functions at Pie through capacity planning, forecasting, scheduling, and staffing.
