We're an early stage startup that teaches data science interactively in the browser. You learn by analyzing data and writing code; not by watching videos.
We're all self-taught and passionate about helping others do the same. Our revenue is growing quickly, and we're looking for a couple of people to join our team:
Data Scientist -- create lessons on topics like Spark and random forests that will be used by thousands of students. Create innovative learning methods (interactive coding exercises, visualizations, etc). Python and R experience preferred.
Frontend engineer -- redesign our learning interface. You'll have huge creative freedom to build things like realtime collaboration, hinting, and more. Design and angular experience preferred.

Vik is a great guy. One of his blog posts made it to the front page of HN a few months ago. I liked what he had to say, so I reached out to him for advice.
Not only was he willing to take time out of his busy schedule meet up with me for coffee to talk over my situation, but he also put me in touch with 2 or 3 of his close friends who were kind enough to share their perspectives with me as well. All for a random guy in college who was confused and looking for someone to talk to.
People like Vik make the HN community great, and I'm sure Dataquest will do great things with Vik in charge.
