What's It Like to Work at CodePath.org?

What’s it like to work on the data and analytics team at CodePath.org?

We’re a small team: two data/software engineers, two data scientists and one reporting lead. We’re taking on challenges much bigger than our size, and we’re often wearing different hats, but we’re doing it in a calm, thoughtful way. We’re choosing the right solution to the problem, but we’re also careful to prioritize the right problems to solve. We’re also very close to the instructors, ops teams, learners and other stakeholders.

What makes data work at CodePath.org meaningful or satisfying?

It’s awesome to be able to help CodePath quantify the extraordinary impact we’ve had on learners across the country. We can see exactly how much the job placement rate goes up for people who complete more of our courses. I also love the culture and camaraderie on our team. I’m constantly learning from my teammates and growing my own skills.

What should candidates know about the impact data professionals can have on your business?

Our data team is key to the organization’s success. Our data products help the org secure funding and get our story out there, both inside and outside the organization. Our insights and predictive models help the org see more clearly what is working well in our courses, and why. It feels great knowing that what we do helps our students have a more effective and better-funded learning experience.
