We're looking for another Data Miner to help with the workload (we call
them Data Analyst so that the outside world understands and differentiates
between the PhD type Data Miner).  Here's the blurb.  Please let me know
if you know anyone.

                              Position: Data Analyst

Compete advises leading companies on their customer strategies and
competitive performance and you can be a critical part of that process.  
In this position, you will use Compete proprietary data models and perform
analysis on large data sets.  Using an innovative, state-of-the-art
Terabyte Data Warehouse as well as Compete's file format, you will produce
analytical reports, take responsibility for the data quality and analytics
in answering questions core to Sales and Compete's customer base.

You will interface with sales and marketing and other analysts to discern
requirements and explain results.  You will create and run production
reports and create new scripts using Unix tools, Python and SQL.  The
ideal candidate should also be able to learn new technology quickly and
thoroughly and be equally able to work as a team member or tackle a
complex project individually.

A Bachelors Degree and 3-5 years experience, an analytical mind, an
attention to detail, strong experience on Unix systems, good SQL skills
and strong Unix scripting experience are required.  Familiarity with the
language of the web is highly desirable as is exposure to Python.

For immediate consideration, please apply online or e-mail your resume to
jobs at compete.com.
