Data Scientist (Research & Evaluation)

Role Overview

LaunchEd is an innovation platform that helps education companies prove the real-world impact of their products through independent research and evidence-based validation. We partner with promising edtech companies, evaluate their effectiveness, and use those insights to support investment, growth, and go-to-market decisions.

As the Data Scientist (Research & Evaluation), you'll build and deliver the research behind those decisions.
