About Us:

YipitData is the leading market research and analytics firm for the disruptive economy and recently raised up to $475M from The Carlyle Group at a valuation over $1B.

We analyze billions of alternative data points every day to provide accurate, detailed insights on ridesharing, e-commerce marketplaces, payments and more. Our on-demand insights team uses proprietary technology to identify, license, clean and analyze the data many of the world’s largest investment funds and corporations depend on.

For three years and counting, we have been recognized as one of Inc’s Best Workplaces. We are a fast-growing technology company backed by The Carlyle Group and Norwest Venture Partners. Our offices are located in NYC, Austin, Miami, Denver, Mountain View, Seattle, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou, and Singapore. We cultivate a people-centric culture focused on mastery, ownership, and transparency.

About The Role:

We are expanding our research team by hiring a Research Associate to develop fundamental research for our popular subscription data products. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with 2-4 years of experience who wants to lead the data-driven future of investment research. You could be a good fit if your background includes buyside or sellside research, management consulting, or have experience utilizing data to understand business trends and solve customer problems.

This is a remote-friendly opportunity that can sit in NYC (where our headquarter is located), one of our office hubs (Austin, Miami, Denver, Mountain View, or Seattle), or anywhere else in the US. However, depending upon where the remote work is performed, income could be subject to New York State tax withholding. Please note that we pay NYC-based salaries for US roles regardless of where employees choose to work.

As A Research Associate, Your Key Responsibilities Will Include:

Data Driven Research: Create and communicate valuable insights from our datasets
SQL-driven Granular Analysis: Learn to derive trends from large datasets using advanced queries, building cohort, concentration, penetration, and competitive analyses
New Product Development: Collaborate with our data team to help build new research products and features
Customer Relationships: Become a trusted resource for our subscribers, the largest investors in the world
Product Marketing: Work with our Sales, Client Strategy and Marketing teams to position our products on clients calls, webcasts, and in press references

You Are Likely To Succeed If:

You have 2+ years of experience in equity research or management consulting-styled writing
You have a background in business analysis and a passion for data-driven fundamental investing
You have a commitment to learning new technology skills and working at a company where everyone learns to code
You have a Bachelor's degree or foreign equivalent in Finance, Economics, Statistics or a related field
