Are you ready to turn your analytics thinking and foundations into real-world impact? Smartly’s Launchpad Program is built for recent Master’s graduates in analytical fields - economics, maths, physics, or related fields who are eager to take their first step into full-time analytics. Over six months, you’ll gain hands-on experience, sharpen your skills, and contribute directly to the global platform powering the world’s largest online advertisers.
Our tech stack includes BigQuery, Airflow, dbt, and Tableau.
