@annika does a pneumatic nail gun that also does staples count?

Job ad: "Work with smart people"
Hmm, nope. That sort of attitude gets you the sort of people who THINK they're smart

Ad continues: "PE backed AI consultancy"
:bunneknife:

Different ad: "Pricing analyst... industry competitive wages"

The heated cat bed is on

Hey #FediHire
Anyone after a remote data nerd, around central Australian time? Ideally 4 days per week

Lots of experience with data analysis, liaising with stakeholders about what information they actually need. Can design and build ETL processes and databases, and do the documentation for them

Experience working with older, poorly documented systems and trying to understand them
Also a lot of experience with sensitive data about people, like medical records

Technical skills: SQL, SAS, some exposure to R. Happy to learn new languages
My preference is for building things that are simple and robust. Infrastructure should be boring

@clarity hmm, probably. I'm willing to give it a go

@NireBryce according a relative who was senior in various corporate BS they show committent to it all, that you're doing the MBA rather than something useful. I'm pretty sure they didn't meant this as a negative thing either

@NanoRaptor Disc: a data storage mechanism based on a rotating disc

Therefore the 1894 gramophone records were floppy discs :P

Some cats being cute
