Indiegogo

San Francisco, CA | Full Time | Analytics Engineer / Data Scientist

There are some exciting and interesting data problems to solve in the crowdfunding world and we're tackling a bunch of them. At Indiegogo, we consider "helping people achieve their dreams" our primary objective, which isn't a bad thing to be doing every day.

We currently have a lean "Insights Team" of 3 people focused on data analytics, BI, scaling our data infrastructure, and advancements in machine learning. We'd like to stay small, but are looking to add a couple impactful people to the mix.

If you're interested, I'd love to chat more. For more info: http://www.indiegogo.com/about/careers

Cheers,

Eric Schell

Founder, Director of Insights

I'm not sure exactly what you are looking for, but IndieGoGo has had a lot of successful non-US projects. Community is building every day, and the payment options (e.g. PayPal & direct credit card) are not US only. Check it out.
