Data Analyst | Education

At RV Education (EDU), we believe in the power of online learning to create opportunities and transform lives. In partnership with over 300 colleges and universities, we help individuals make smart educational decisions that meet their needs and career aspirations. Our trusted brands like BestColleges serve over 90 million unique annual visitors with educational resources and advice.

As a Data Analyst, you'll play an instrumental role in developing core data infrastructure and reporting to help determine the efficacy of products for internal brands and industry leading partners. Our Data Analysts identify opportunities for applying business insights, advanced analytics, and data science techniques by becoming intimately familiar with both data, business, and partner goals. You will act as a data-savvy consultant, creating insights, solving problems, building new solutions and making business and marketing recommendations.

The right candidate for this role will be highly-organized and collaborative; with a passion for solving problems cross-functionally. But you won’t do it alone — you’ll have a collaborative cross-disciplinary team of engineers, designers, product managers, and other analysts to support you. This is a high-impact role that will be involved in defining the next chapter of data-driven growth for the RV-Education team. 

RV EDU is proudly headquartered in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and is dedicated to cultivating local talent and driving economic development on the island. While many of our roles are located in Puerto Rico, some are also located at RV’s main campus south of Charlotte, NC, or are remote-based. 

This role requires a hybrid schedule and will be based out of our San Juan, Puerto Rico or South Charlotte area office with in-office Monday-Thursday and fully remote work on Fridays each week.

We believe that diverse, inclusive teams are better teams. Think of the bullets below as guidelines: if you only partially meet the qualifications on this posting, we encourage you to apply anyway!

• Leverage data processing tools to manipulate large datasets to create data-based solutions. You won't just build programs and visualizations; you'll also interpret and explain outputs to non-technical stakeholders.
• Ensure your outputs are integrated into our products and processes, assisting adoption and being accountable to the business value creation.
• Analyze the impact of your data products, experiments, and/or deployments, synthesizing and presenting your findings in a way that clearly communicates the impact.
