Data is better. - The ability to synthesize disparate data from different sources, both quantitative and qualitative. - Excellent communication skills, and ideally experience presenting. - The ability to write clear, digestible and insightful analysis of complex technology – and not take months to do it. - A reasonable online presence. You don’t need to be Taylor Swift, but if you don’t know what Twitter is there’s a problem. - Deep and relevant technical expertise in technology infrastructure. - A personality that both we and our clients enjoy working with. You can call this the no assholes rule. - The ability to travel regularly to industry events and client sites. - A passion for developers. ## It’d Be Nice If You Had - A background in statistics, economics or both. - Exposure to/training with statistical programming languages (R or Python if you must). - Experience as a developer, whether as a hobby or profession. - A broad range of technology exposure (as opposed to being expert in a tiny niche). - Familiarity with media creation and editing; audio, video or both. - An affinity for craft beer.
