Job Description

Join Our Talent Network We'll pay you to argue about whether correlation implies causation. Applied Curiosity is a fast-growing data and AI consulting firm based in Austin, TX, with team members spread across the US. We work with government clients on interesting, impactful problems, and we have the good fortune to use modern tech to do it.
Our mission is simple:
help organizations build responsible, data-informed decision cultures. We're not always hiring, but we're always wanting to meet people who live, breathe, and love data. Apply to hear when we have openings and get on our radar before we post anything. Who We're Looking For Data Engineering When someone asks "does this data look weird?", do you see opportunity? If you've survived the land of "it's just a simple data request" and come out wanting more, you might be our kind of people. Everyone here speaks SQL and Spark (the data scientists still complain), and we take pride in turning "can you just pull this real quick" into something that actually holds up. Lost your cape? We'll provide one. Data Science Do you have the patience to explain why a 10-year forecast built on two years of data might not go well? Do you love cleaning data that looks like it was assembled by caffeinated wombats? Our team thrives on incomplete data, murky assumptions, and the eternal work of helping clients understand the difference between statistical significance and practical significance. We build models that are actually useful — imagine that. Data Platform Have (or had) a 127.0.0.1 t-shirt? Do you have a ready answer for every "can I just get root access to production this once?" request? We'd like to meet you. If building zero trust data platforms gets you more excited than the Hamburglar in a burger factory, and you have Zen-like calm when someone says "it works on my machine" — you'll fit right in. Still deciding if your interested in joining the team? A SQL query walks into a bar, sees two tables, and asks: "May I join you?" If you laughed, that's a good sign.
