Who you are:

responsible for extracting, transforming, reporting, & visualizing data generated by marketers on digital
advertising platforms including social. Working with the Technology, Product, Sales & Marketing teams
at Unified, you will drive the reports that enable customers to learn what works & what doesn't in digital
and social marketing.
Candidates that will enjoy & succeed in this position will probably agree with most of these statements:
You prefer solving problems via critical thinking rather than following a formal specification,
judging success by user acceptance & delight.
You believe that one of the most rewarding elements of engineering is seeing the look on
someone's face when you deliver a solution that gives them hours of their work week back.
You are a self-starter who loves working with large scale sets of data & can handle multiple
projects at a time.
You appreciate the benefits of a relaxed, but high-performing work environment.
You love the Pandas Python framework & wonder how much time you wasted doing that stuff
yourself before you learned how to use it.
You think SQL is underrated.
You're pretty good at Excel, but you think doing the same thing in real code is way better.
You're not a Data Scientist (yet), but you respect them, like working with them, & think that you
could possibly become one someday.
What you'll do:
Lead projects under the direction of the VP of the Professional Services & Analytics Engineering
Team
