Podsights: Junior Data Analyst
Job Description
Headquarters: United States
URL: https://podsights.com
Remote within the U.S. — $60-90k
Podsights is a small, distributed organization seeking a junior data analyst to join our growing team!
Here’s a little about us, a little about what we believe, and what we are looking for.
Podsights is an industry-leading attribution platform for podcast advertising. We likely work with some of your favorite brands and publishers and handle over 10 billion events a month.
Our mission is simple, we are looking to grow the podcast industry. Far too many brands try a podcast advertising campaign and churn. Or worse: they don’t even try to enter the market. By providing a platform for brands to optimize results, we encourage investment in podcast advertising, and by proxy to publishers.
The podcasting industry has seen a lot of growth in the past few years, and we believe it has more room to grow. Beyond growth, podcasting presents some interesting problems: its decentralized, RSS-based nature, and the various ways people can listen. Joining Podsights is an excellent opportunity to be hands-on with an evolving medium.
Your role will be a hybrid of working with 1) the Machine Learning Research & Development team, helping to collect, clean and document data for ML models, and 2) contributing to strategic projects at Podsights, from the quarterly benchmark report to analyzing customer behavior and satisfaction. The benefit of joining a small team is you will have a tremendous impact on the company’s direction, and to some extent, the industry.

We believe that where you went to school has little bearing on your performance as a junior data analyst. Where you live isn’t a proxy for talent. Your current employer provides low signal about your future potential.
At Podsights, we look for ambition and curiosity.
Ideally, you will have 1-2 years of experience as a data analyst working in SQL, Python, and Excel. If you enjoy digging into data to solve problems, working in a fast-paced environment, and learning about all aspects of Podsights’ business, this job is right for you. You will use your analytical and communications skills to help build our ML products, and identify and address solutions to improve the business.
Our team consists of members of Embedly (acquired by Medium), Horizon Media, Claritas, NPM, and How Stuff Works. You can learn more about us here: Podsights Team
If the above interests you, drop us a note. We’re less worried about a resume, but more importantly, tell us about your ideal next role.

- Opportunity to build something meaningful from the ground up. We’re changing the way podcast ads are bought and sold.
- Fast-paced and challenging work environment ideal for a life-long learner.
- Competitive compensation and a 401K program.

- We cover 100% of health benefits (medical, dental, and vision)!
