Data Analyst – Remote

Company Overview

Lucent Analytics provides data analytics support to clients across multiple industries. A basic tenet of our work is the concept of “subject matter expert guided analytics”, in which data analysts partner with subject matter experts to effectively apply data analysis solutions to relevant client challenges. Rather than doing analysis with no underlying goal, our team works with internal subject matter experts and client to determine the most important questions or goals, and then efficiently perform directed analyses. Our firm’s leadership has many years of research and strategic consulting experience and has established this firm to fill an unmet need – purposeful analytics to assist clients in achieving their strategic goals.
