Founded in 2007, we scaled the business with less than $3 million in outside funding until 2021, when we did a traditional IPO on the Nasdaq stock exchange. Today, Backblaze generates over $136M ARR and is the leading specialized storage cloud, managing over three billion gigabytes of data storage for 500K+ customers in 175+ countries, including businesses, developers, IT professionals, and individuals.

About the Role
Backblaze is seeking a Senior Revenue Analytics Lead to build and scale our post-sales and revenue intelligence capabilities.
This is a senior individual contributor role for a highly technical and business-oriented analyst who can unify product telemetry, customer success signals, and revenue data into a single, actionable analytics layer.
This is not a reporting-only role. You will architect, build, and operationalize systems that directly impact renewals, expansion, and revenue growth.
What You’ll Do
- Design and maintain a scalable data model integrating product usage and telemetry data, customer success and support signals, and revenue data such as ARR, MRR, renewals, and pipeline
- Align and normalize data across systems, including Salesforce, product systems, and support tools
- Build clean, reusable datasets for analytics and BI
- Define and standardize core SaaS metrics, including Net Revenue Retention (NRR), Gross Revenue Retention (GRR), expansion, contraction, churn, renewal forecasting, and pipeline coverage
- Partner with Customer Success, Revenue Operations, Sales, and Finance teams to drive revenue insights
- Build models to forecast usage and revenue growth, predict expansion likelihood, and identify churn and saturation risk
- Apply statistical and analytical techniques such as time-series modeling, cohort analysis, regression, and probability modeling
- Design dashboards in Tableau that connect product usage to revenue outcomes, surface expansion-ready and at-risk accounts, and provide visibility into renewal pipeline and performance
- Ensure consistency through centralized metric definitions and SQL logic
