• Analyzing our massive amounts of data to develop ways of improving the Kinnek user experience as well as building admin-facing analytical tools that make other teams at Kinnek tick.

Qualifications:

• Expertise in our techstack and beyond; angular, django, redshift, redis, (to name a few)
• Required: Designing, building, testing, and maintaining large-scale software applications like it ain't no thang;
• Optional Bonus: AWS, Google App Engine, or similar cloud platforms; background in quantitative research / data science;
