Original posting

Dataquest (www.dataquest.io) | Boston, MA | Software engineer, data scientist Dataquest is an early stage online education company making "codecademy for data science". Since we launched a few months ago, we've taught tens of thousands of students around the world everything from basic python to data visualization to machine learning. We're expanding, and looking for a full-stack developer and a data scientist to help people learn, apply, and prove their data science skills. Our tech stack is Python and Javascript (Django + Angular), with docker used for code sandboxing and deployment/testing. A software engineer would focus on building and improving the learning platform, whereas a data scientist would focus on content, community, and analytics. The salary range is 75k-90k, with significant equity (2-5%). This is a great chance to have a huge impact on the development of an early stage startup. We have an office in downtown Boston, and great investors. Email vik@dataquest.io if you're interested.
