About Our Team
Analytics at "Foxford" consists of several areas: marketing, monetization, LMS, educational analytics, and business. There is also a team of data engineers building the DWH.
We have a matrix structure: each area is served by its own analyst, and the team members communicate with each other in the group during daily, weekly, and training meetups. Key tools are Metabase, ClickHouse, and PostgreSQL; we communicate in Loop (a full analog of Slack), track tasks in Jira, and maintain knowledge bases in Yonote (an analog of Notion).

- Flexible start of the day: the result is what matters most to us;
- We provide MacBook Pro for work;
