Data Platform Lead at Zipline

We believe in the power of being close to the end user. To better serve operations and our customers on the continent, Zipline’s data team is expanding from California to Ghana, where we’re also building a small team of operations data analysts. This role includes ~1 month/year of international travel to support our team’s global user-base.

Responsibilities

• Enable analysts across the company using Zipline’s data dashboarding platform. This includes everything from providing access and onboarding to sharing tips & tricks for communicating data visually.
• Develop and maintain a roadmap of new features as our user base grows and use cases expand.
• Support the addition of new data sources on the back-end.

Strong candidates will have many of these traits

•   Product vision: a customer-centric mindset and the capacity to ruthlessly prioritize the development of new features
•  Data engineering: you won’t just be managing a product, but also implementing features, e.g. prototyping a Python-centric ETL of new data sources into the data warehouse to make them available for dashboarding & reporting
•  Data science: working familiarity with SQL and the Python data science stack, e.g. numpy, pandas, matplotlib
•   Seeing around corners: balancing scrappy results with building high quality data and infrastructure

Compensation

• Zipline offers a competitive salary and benefits package commensurate with the scope and impact of the role. Most of all, we'll provide you the opportunity to do your best work along with mentorship to build up your skills as both a technical contributor and leader.
