Job Position: Data Analyst
Location: Lagos
About the Team
Our mission
is to make better decisions faster by leveraging data.
We
accomplish that mission by working cross-functionally at Andela to collect data
and understand our business processes in order to enable analysis of the
underlying systems. Additionally, we democratize data access for all Andelans
so that they can answer the questions most important to them.
About the Role
Your job is
to help us to craft and answer questions that we don’t yet know how to answer
in order to drive our overall strategy. Some of these questions are about
testing the decisions we have made. Such as, how does the current curriculum
compare to previous versions of it? Others are about more forward-looking
decisions. Questions like, what makes the most ideal developer?
Answering
these and other things will require you to work collaboratively with department
leads in Success, Learning, and Talent. Oftentimes the data being collected to
help answer these questions is not done with an eye to scale, and your job will
be to ensure that the data we collect aligns with how our business operates
today, and how it should run tomorrow.
More than
that though, you will be vital in driving the entire company toward a
data-first culture, and ensuring that we are making decisions not just quickly,
but with confidence that a more knowable truth is supporting that decision.
About the Skills
A curious
mindset that obsesses over how to break down a problem to its most granular
level.
Communication
skills that allow you to not just present your analysis to business owners, but
allows you to work with them as a collaborative thought partner to answer
Andela’s most critical questions.
A
remote-first mindset that allows you to work collaboratively and asynchronously
with team-members across the world.
Intimate
knowledge of Excel and SQL.
Experience
with data analysis and business intelligence tools (e.g. R, Jupyter, Tableau)
2-5 years of
work experience as a data analyst, or similar role.
Familiarity
with PostgresSQL databases and ETL tools.
Interest for
to work for a new organization within a fast-paced startup, including the
chance to help create and define that role for future hires, take ownership of
key projects.
