Statistical Modeling, Causal Inference, and Social Science gets results!

A few months ago, we posted this job ad from Des McGowan:

We are looking to hire multiple full time analysts/senior analysts to join the Baseball Analytics department at the New York Mets. The roles will involve building, testing, and presenting statistical models that inform decision-making in all facets of Baseball Operations. These positions require a strong background in complex statistics and data analytics, as well as the ability to communicate statistical model details and findings to both a technical and non-technical audience. Prior experience in or knowledge of baseball is not required.

Interested applicants should apply at this link and are welcome to reach out to me ([email protected]) if they have any questions about the role.

More recently, McGowan informed me that one of the people they ultimately hired applied because he saw it here on this blog.

Cool!

  1. Hey, this post is about me!

    Thanks, Prof. Gelman, for posting this job. I never would have seen it or applied otherwise. And thanks to the Mets organization for the opportunity. We’re going to do great things!
