## About the role

As a Member of Data Staff, you will own the full picture of how data enters and flows through Simile - both the third-party datasets we license and the first-party data we collect.

## What they're looking for

- You are excited about enhancing Simile’s data supply chain: You are excited about expanding Simile’s global data partnerships and the engine through which we collect data all over the world
- You are interested in building scalable processes: You can hold many live threads at once and still know the status of each. When you leave a project, the person after you can reconstruct every decision and why it was made
- You have intuition for what makes an interesting dataset: You know when a dataset is worth spending time with, when an exclusivity clause is worth paying for, and when to keep looking for alternatives. You are willing to say no to something impressive
- You have negotiating experience or aptitude: You are effective in rooms where you have no leverage and no warm introduction. Some of our highest-value sources will come from convincing an organization to do something it has never done before
- You are comfortable looking at and thinking about data. You think about things like data biases, sample selection, ideal data schema for the simulation task, the tradeoffs of various collection strategies, and what high quality data should be defined as
