Recidiviz is thrilled to be hiring an impact analytics data analyst to join our team! The impact analytics team at Recidiviz measures our interventions so we can more effectively improve outcomes for the justice-involved population. We’re looking for a data analyst to join our team to measure historical impact and estimate future impact to inform both our product strategy and partnerships with funders.

## About us

Recidiviz is creating safer, healthier communities by improving outcomes for people in the criminal justice system. We build technology to reduce the number of people in prison and to help criminal justice leaders embrace data-driven decision-making.

Using software tools and thoughtful product design, we’ve been able to safely and permanently reduce incarceration and improve outcomes. We work side-by-side with leaders of the criminal justice system, people in prison and on supervision, and ecosystem partners to build a better path forward. In addition to the revenue we earn from state partners, some of the most respected philanthropists and foundations support our work.

People who succeed at Recidiviz lead with kindness and humility, assume good intent, learn from failure, and fix problems when they see them. They are excited to work arm in arm with government leadership and staff to improve outcomes. They are great listeners. They build deep relationships with and empathy for the people we work with and the people who our mission serves, even when those two groups feel at odds.

## About the role

The Impact Analytics Data Analyst will work alongside the research and impact tracking leads to analyze the impact of Recidiviz’s products and interventions. They will build statistical models, communicate findings with stakeholders, and build reusable processes to facilitate repeated analyses. They will also contribute to aggregated metrics infrastructure and consult with other data analysts to design and measure experiments.

Core responsibilities

- Define measures of product usage and impact in Python and SQL through Recidiviz’s aggregated metrics framework and Looker
- Consult with the data analysis and data science team to develop experimental and quasi-experimental rollout analysis methodologies

Wild success

One year into the role, you will have developed a model that estimates Recidiviz’s impact on the justice-involved population over the next several years. That model, alongside other impact evaluations you conduct, will have enriched both Recidiviz’s partnerships with funders and product strategy efforts with a more detailed understanding of how Recidiviz interventions can improve outcomes for the justice-involved population.

## Minimum qualifications

- Strong communication and collaboration skills, to help nurture a knowledgeable, data-oriented culture
- Enthusiasm for working with internal and external partners from diverse backgrounds and worldviews, such as government staff, researchers, journalists, technical staff, and practitioners in criminal justice reform

More about Recidiviz

Recidiviz was an all-volunteer effort until early 2019, when Clementine, Andrew, and Joshua founded the organization. Since then, we’ve built an A-team of software engineers, designers, product managers and domain experts, from companies like Google, Apple, Dropbox, Opower, and Sidewalk Labs. Recidiviz was part of Y-Combinator’s 2019 class and has received support from some of the most respected philanthropists and foundations, including Ford Foundation, Mackenzie Scott, Schmidt Futures, Arnold Ventures, Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, and the Mozilla Foundation.

Today, Recidiviz works with (and earns revenue from) over 20 state partners - big and small, red and blue - and touches over 46% of the country’s incarcerated population. We have helped to get hundreds of thousands of people out of the criminal justice system, safely and equitably. In addition to partnering with state Departments of Corrections, Recidiviz collaborates with and learns from partners – from organizations like the Correctional Leaders Association (CLA) to community based organizations and justice-impacted individuals, whose perspectives guide our work.
