Create the public face of BlueLabs by designing and building our interactive data analysis tools, data visualizations, and more.
Who We Are
BlueLabs is a technology firm formed by leadership from the Obama for America re-election campaign analytics team. On the campaign, we used sophisticated data integration and predictive modeling to inform voter targeting—and make dead-on election forecasts. You may have read a little about our team during the campaign: a close-knit, slightly eccentric bunch, crammed into what became dubbed as the Obama Campaign "Cave." But behind all of that success were a few radical ideas about how to build the best analytics team around and equip it to solve the campaign’s problem—and ultimately, re-elect the president.
Where We Are Headed
As we build BlueLabs from the ground up, we want to take those ideas and scale them to address new challenging problems and new opportunities for social good. Our engineering team is building an innovative class of tools that empower analysts to make rapid, analytical, data-driven decisions throughout their domains. We believe that the strongest and most cost-effective solution to a problem is one delivered quickly, evaluated, and then revised, rather than one built to precise and cumbersome specifications. We are inspired by IDEO and its “hot teams,” and we prefer cross-disciplinary teams of statisticians, engineers and analysts over skill “silos.”
Why We Need You
Join our team of analysts, data scientists, and software engineers as we leverage our groundbreaking technology and data science expertise to help identify prospective voters, donors and targets for a variety of sectors including political campaigns, nonprofits, and human services providers.
