About Stitch Fix

At Stitch Fix, we're the first fashion retailer to blend expert styling, proprietary technology and unique product to deliver a refined shopping experience. Using a blend of art and science, we deliver a deeply personalized shopping service to our customer. This novel juxtaposition-at once analytics and artistic, technical and adventurous-attracts an extraordinary collection of talented people who are both thinkers and doers. Our diverse workforce has catalyzed enormous company growth over the past three years in terms of customer satisfaction and service efficacy. We'd love for you to help us carry on the trend.

About the Team

The Frontend / Data Visualization team is a small, nimble group of engineers that is focused on enabling our data scientists to communicate their insights to the rest of the organization. We have wide latitude to build and deploy whatever tools we deem appropriate to the situation, from custom React / D3 web applications, to dashboards written in Shiny, to ambient displays. We are driven by the thrill of helping our colleagues see their work in new ways.

About The Role

We are looking for a Data Visualization Engineer to join our Frontend / Data Visualisation team! As a Visualization Engineer, you will be making sure that the analysis that comes out of our data looks amazing and meets best practices when it comes to data presentation. You will work with multiple data scientists on business problems across Stitch Fix's business.

We use these technologies…

* React, Redux, and GraphQL for web application development
* D3 for bespoke data visualization
* Git for source control
* Python and R for data analysis
* Hive, Redis, Presto, and Spark for data access and querying
* You are also encouraged to explore and evaluate new technologies

You'll love working at Stitch Fix because…

* We are a group of bright, kind and goal oriented people. You can be your authentic self here, and are empowered to encourage others to do the same!
