- Deeply analyze existing competitor content and market trend data to develop content that creates unique value for readers.

About You
- Bachelor’s degree, preferably in a quantitative track (e.g. Statistics, Mathematics, Business, Economics, Marketing, etc.).
- Proven expertise with 2+ years experience conducting data analysis, research, or similar.
- Interest in transforming great research into great content (articles, whitepapers, etc.) required; experience in this function is helpful, not mandatory.
