The example you provide on the page: "discover what you should name your kid if you want them to be a US senator" are you actually going to show causal estimates? Names are very endogenous. If you are looking at the likelihood of being a US senator conditioning on someones name, this is very different from the causal effect of the name.
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.
