Analyst, Schooling Data & Insights

New York

Thanks for your interest in Success Academy! Running a large, fast-growing, and high-performing network of public charter schools takes a village - families, children, teachers, staff and faculty, advocates, and supporters alike. We are growing fast in New York and expanding to Florida, and we would love to welcome you to our community! We work tirelessly every day to ensure children have access to a fun, rigorous, whole-child education regardless of zip code or economic status. When you join SA, you play a part in giving every student who walks through our doors a fair shot at reaching his or her potential.

About Success Academy

Success Academy is the highest-performing charter network in New York — 59 schools, 22,000+ scholars, and eight straight years of 100% college acceptance. We’re growing to 100 schools and 50,000 scholars. Figuring out how to see our own academic performance clearly — and act on it fast — is one of the most important problems we have.

The Role:

  • Use AI to do everything. You build, analyze, prototype, and clean data with the full AI toolkit (Cursor and beyond). AI isn’t a side tool here — it’s how one person does the work of a whole team, and how we move at the speed leadership needs.

  • Build the visualizations the network runs on. Interactive reports and dashboards that take a pile of scholar data and tell a clear story — exam results, school and teacher performance, readiness over time. The bar isn’t that a chart exists; it’s that someone looks at it and feels where the problem is.

  • Design the methodology underneath. Take an ambiguous question — how do we fairly rank schools that give different mixes of exams? — and build a fair, defensible way to answer it. This is the reasoning core of the job.

  • Get real data into shape. Pull the exports, point AI at the grunt work of cleaning and deduping, then QA every number against the source before it goes anywhere.

  • Distill for executives. Turn the analysis into plain-English takeaways and a recommendation. If a smart 8th grader couldn’t follow it, it’s not done.

  • Partner across the org. Work with the data and learning teams to get what you need, and present to senior leaders.

What we’re looking for:

We care about how you think, not where you’ve been. Specifically:

  • Reasoning, first and foremost. You can take a vague, tangled question and turn it into a clean, structured analysis. This is the one thing we can’t teach.

  • AI-native. You reach for AI tools by default and learn new ones fast.

  • Clear communicator. You can explain a complex result simply, in writing and out loud, and hold your own in a room with leaders.

  • Design instinct. A feel for simplicity and clarity — you know the difference between a busy chart and one that lands.

  • High agency, low ego. You take a problem from question to answer end-to-end, and no task is beneath you.

  • Quantitatively fluent. Comfortable in data; can teach yourself the tools and domain you don’t already know.

We’re deliberately open on years of experience and background — we’d rather have a sharp, fast-learning reasoner than a longer résumé. Non-traditional paths welcome.

Exact compensation may vary based on skills and experience. This position is not bonus eligible.

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
