We’re hiring: Data Analyst
Location: Remote or Los Angeles
Type: Contract or Full-Time (Flexible)
At Owl & Co, we help media and tech companies figure out what really drives attention, engagement—and ultimately—value.
We’re looking for a sharp, curious Data Analyst to help us spot the value-creating patterns others overlook. Sometimes they’re hiding in plain sight. Sometimes they’re buried in a 10,000-row spreadsheet. Sometimes they live in a private database we subscribe to, but you need to know where to look.
What’s in it for you?
You’ll be the first hire at Owl & Co, the consulting firm started by Hernan Lopez (founder of Wondery, former CEO of Fox International Channels). You’ll get a front-row seat to where the puck is going across media and tech. And you’ll get to move comfortably between the 10,000-foot view and the spreadsheet-level detail—and know when to zoom in or out.
You might be a fit if:
- You love puzzles, patterns, and asking the second question
- You’ve worked with large, messy data sets (Excel a must, SQL, Python, a plus)
- You’re as comfortable with pivot tables as you are questioning assumptions
- You think like an analyst but write (and talk) like a human
- Your AI skills are up-to-date and constantly evolving
- You’ve worked in—or are fascinated by—media, tech or consumer trends (especially streaming in TV, film, music, podcasts, YouTube, the Creator Economy, or subscription businesses)
Whether you have a degree in data science, economics or none at all, you should be fluent in data, love TV, Film, music, YouTube and/or podcasts, and driven by curiosity.
Bonus points if:
- You’ve built models that explain or predict behavior
- You’ve worked in consulting, VC, or with startups
- You can quickly "code-switch" between large English-language markets and places like Brazil, Japan, or South Korea
- You can chart things using PowerPoint in a way that makes people go “ohhhhhh”
Compensation:
Pay will depend on several factors—your location, whether you’re looking for full-time or contract, exclusivity, and competitive market data. In all cases, work will be subject to strict NDAs.
If you decide to apply, you will be asked to put your sleuthing, data analysis, AI skills to the test on the next page. If you want to stand out, you can also send your resume to contact [at] owlandco.com, including (a) relevant work in the space you have authored and (b) how you arrived at the answers to the test questions, and how long it took you.
