Senior Data Visualization Engineer

The Data Visualization Engineer makes data sets that are extremely complicated and nuanced and accessible to non-technical stakeholders. As a Data Visualization Engineer, you are not satisfied with dumbing down ideas (you might even be somewhat sickened by it!)– instead, you strive for elegance when designing visual solutions so that various stakeholders actually enjoy engaging with the data. You strive for simplicity without loss of meaning or fidelity. We believe that, by democratizing access to key information beyond those with coding backgrounds, we can make the information that much more useful and vastly improve the diversity and quality of insights; you enable this through your knowledge of our client’s business and a keen eye for design…all grounded in the experience of end users.

We believe that flat organizational structures make better breeding grounds for ideas; as a more senior member of an account team, you will contribute thoughts like everyone else, but your proposals will be backed up by experience on previous projects. You have plenty of practical experience and will take on the “harder” tasks.

• Streamline data ingestion processes for ease of analysis and reporting
• Identify opportunities to enhance existing statistical analysis or activate personalization capabilities and advocate for their implementation internally or implement them yourself
• Maintain a well-organized approach to a variety of projects and ensure on-time delivery.
• Attend meetings over videoconference during the day, potentially scheduled at short notice
• Keep in touch with the rest of the team through email and slack throughout the day
• Meticulous attention to technical and visual details.
