Your experience
  • Demonstrated professional and/or academic projects writing analytic SQL queries (emphasis on SELECTs using JOINs, GROUP BY, window functions, etc., not so much INSERTs/UPDATEs)
  • Experience with data visualization
  • Ability to effectively communicate findings and recommendations, and connect with a variety of stakeholders
Your personal attributes
  • Naturally curious, organized, and analytical 
  • Truly loves making sense of large amounts of data
