Company:  Aristotle
Location: Provo
Closing Date: 24/10/2024
Hours: Full Time
Type: Permanent
Job Requirements / Description
Come work in a startup like environment (small team, big challenges, massive growth opportunity, relaxed office culture) with solid company stability (30+ years) and benefits including health, regular holidays, 401K, PTO, and great office views. Together with our 200+ university research partners, we have built (url removed), into the “The Stock Market of Politics” where more than 100,000 enthusiastic Traders make $1 winner-take-all political forecasts with stunning accuracy thanks to the wisdom of the crowd. Now we need your help taking it to the next level.

As a Data Analyst for PredictIt you will need to understand the site and our data well enough to be the go-to expert who can help answer the hard questions. Under the direction of the Director of Software Development, you’ll work with different teams to make sure your coworkers have the data insights they need to do their jobs. You will work on several projects at a time, and you’ll need to balance ad hoc requests with medium- and long-term priorities set by management. Because our team is small, you may be asked to help with other work that doesn’t align with the typical responsibilities of a data analyst (e.g., writing a story for the PredictIt homepage, producing material for marketing to share, drafting process documents, communicating with academic research partners, etc.). You will be expected to put in the work, and wherever possible, improve the process to make it easier in the future. However, as a member of a small team you will also get to take on challenges and responsibilities that make the job extremely fulfilling and rewarding.
