Work on iterative improvements to key parts of Onja’s model to continuously increase overall effectiveness and impact.

Responsibilities

  • Analyse one or more parts of our organization. Examples could be our student recruitment process, our English & software development courses, client attraction or hiring. Each of these are crucial and relate directly to our impact.
  • From our successful first cohort of developers, we have a wealth of relevant data for analysis. You will be responsible for understanding the process, understanding the data, making key assumptions, applying statistical models to reveal strengths and areas for improvement, and reporting on your findings.
  • You will work very closely with the relevant team, our CEO and will probably have support in data processing, or data collection if required.
  • We tend to strive for simplicity in our analysis and closely document our work so that others can clearly understand what we did. So far, we mostly use Python for our analysis.
  • Being a startup, the role is fairly broad, and often goes beyond analysis, to working on or leading others to work on systems/tools.

Skillset

  • Background in Engineering, Science, Mathematics or related field.
  • Ability to understand complex problems and reduce them to useful, meaningful components.
  • Programming knowledge.
  • Experience with Python or at least a strong desire to learn and work with this language.
  • Twelve month commitment (this ensures sufficient time to make a truly meaningful impact) with potential to renew/extend.
  • Excellent English communication skills.
