Summary
The Wikimedia Foundation is looking for a pragmatic, detail-oriented Data Analyst to help drive informed product decisions that enable our communities to achieve our Vision: a world in which every single human being can freely share in the sum of all knowledge.
Data Analysts are the experts within the organization on measuring what is going on. Their analysis and insight help product analysts and managers envision, scope, and refine features, products and services that hundreds of millions of people around the world use.
You will join the Search & Discovery Department, which is focussed on improving in-site search on all Wikimedia across all platforms, with the view of launching an open-source knowledge engine for the entire web.
Description
Work closely with product managers to build out and maintain detailed on-going analysis of the usage and performance of Wikimedia’s search and information discovery products.
Write database queries and code to analyze Wikipedia usage volume, user behaviour and performance data to identify opportunities and areas for improvement.
Work with other data analysts to contribute to the development and ongoing maintenance of the department’s dashboards, ensuring they are up-to-date, accurate, fair and focussed representations of the efficacy of the products.
Communicate clearly and responsively your findings to a range of departmental, organisational, volunteer and public stakeholders, informing and educating them.
