All new and existing Mode employees will continue to work from home until it’s safe to return to our offices. When our offices re-open, you will have the choice to work from our office in SF or from home.
Mode is a company built for analysts and data scientists. We're on a mission to help businesses turn data into a force of gravity that brings people—data experts and domain experts alike—together to solve their hardest problems and drive action. We work toward this mission everyday by building our collaborative, interactive data science platform while also serving as a source of education and inspiration for analysts and data scientists of all experience levels.
Mode’s visualization team is a critical part of this mission. The team has a dual mandate.

- Collaborate closely with the product, design, and analytics teams to identify areas where we can develop new visualization features and functionality
- Define and maintain development practices that help us build more quickly and confidently

- A full stack implementor - you want to work across the entire stack from theory to implementation
- A systems builder - you want to work on identifying abstract patterns and structures that we can apply to solve a wide array of real-world problems
- Expertise in encoding based visualization systems such as Vega-Lite, Tableau, ggplot2, etc.
- Experience working with web-focused 2d rendering technologies such as Vega, d3, SVG, etc.
