Senior Python Engineer Offline

Overview

Every day, somewhere in the world, important decisions are made. Whether it is a private equity company deciding to invest millions into a business or a large corporation implementing a new strategic direction, these decisions impact employees, customers and other stakeholders.

Consulting and private equity firms come when they need to gather knowledge, critical to ensuring they make the right decision. It is our mission to provide them with this knowledge efficiently and collaboratively.

In the four years since the company was founded, we have grown to 250 colleagues. This year alone, we are on track to more than double in size! In order to support this growth, we raised a $10m Series A round led by Smedvig Capital.

Creating knowledge

Our talented client service teams use a combination of their initiative and leading technology to locate industry experts all around the world. These experts will have significant experience in various industries and provide insights to our clients via conference calls and surveys.

Curating knowledge

Our market-leading platform curates insight which helps our clients to make bigger, better decisions with less effort. We believe in the right insights and not the most insights.

Collecting knowledge

Insight can sometimes be found within your own organization, hidden within terabytes of files and folders. Our platform helps to surface these insights when they are needed.
