We analyze billions of alternative data points every day to provide accurate, detailed insights on ridesharing, e-commerce marketplaces, payments and more. Our on-demand insights team uses proprietary technology to identify, license, clean and analyze the data many of the world’s largest investment funds and corporations depend on.

For three years and counting, we have been recognized as one of Inc’s Best Workplaces. We are a fast-growing technology company backed by The Carlyle Group and Norwest Venture Partners. Our offices are located in NYC, Austin, Miami, Denver, Mountain View, Seattle, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou, and Singapore. We cultivate a people-centric culture focused on mastery, ownership, and transparency.

About The Role:

We are expanding our research team by hiring a Research Associate to drive the development of fundamental research for our high-demand subscription-based data products. This is an exciting opportunity for someone with 2-4 years of experience who is eager to play a key role in shaping the data-driven future of investment research.

You may be an ideal fit if you have a background in buy-side or sell-side research, management consulting, or have used data to analyze business trends and develop solutions to customer challenges. Experience covering or working in the financial technology (fintech) sector is a plus. If you are passionate about leveraging data to drive actionable insights, we encourage you to apply!

This is a remote-friendly opportunity that can sit in NYC (where our headquarter is located), one of our office hubs (Austin, Miami, Denver, Mountain View, or Seattle), or anywhere else in the US. However, depending upon where the remote work is performed, income could be subject to New York State tax withholding.

As A Research Associate, Your Key Responsibilities Will Include:

• Data Driven Research: Create and communicate valuable insights from our datasets
• SQL-driven Granular Analysis: Learn to derive trends from large datasets using advanced queries, building cohort, concentration, penetration, and competitive analyses
• New Product Development: Collaborate with our data team to help build new research products and features
• Customer Relationships: Become a trusted resource for our subscribers, the largest investors in the world
• Product Marketing: Work with our Sales, Client Strategy and Marketing teams to position our products on clients calls, webcasts, and in press references 

You Are Likely To Succeed If:

• You have 2+ years of experience in equity research or management consulting-styled writing
• You have a background in business analysis and a passion for data-driven fundamental investing
• You have a commitment to learning new technology skills and working at a company where everyone learns to code
