About The Position

Khan Academy is seeking a Data Analyst I for a 24-month fixed-term position to support high-visibility reporting and dashboarding across the organization. This role will partner with senior leadership and the Philanthropy team to ensure stakeholders and funders receive timely, accurate, and well-explained metrics. The ideal candidate enjoys making data usable through clean definitions, consistent reporting, and clear visuals to aid decision-making.

Requirements

A passion for Khan Academy’s mission and a desire to improve educational outcomes through better decision-making.
At least 2 years of experience in analytics, business intelligence, or a related role (internships/academic projects welcome).
Solid SQL skills (comfortable querying, joining tables, and validating results).
Experience building dashboards and visualizations in a BI tool (e.g., Looker, Tableau, Power BI).
Interest in or experience with AI tools (e.g., LLMs) and a willingness to learn how to build and iterate on AI-driven solutions.
Comfort working with spreadsheets and slide decks to present metrics clearly and consistently.
Strong attention to detail and a healthy skepticism: you like validating numbers before sharing them widely.
Clear communication skills, especially with non-technical stakeholders.
Ability to manage multiple requests, prioritize effectively, and meet deadlines for recurring reporting cycles.
Proven cross-cultural competency skills demonstrating self-awareness, awareness of other, and the ability to adopt inclusive perspectives, attitudes, and behaviors to drive inclusion and belonging throughout the organization.

Nice To Haves

Familiarity with Python or R is a plus (helpful for light automation or deeper analysis, but not required).
Prior experience in education, nonprofits, or funder-facing reporting is a plus.

Responsibilities

Produce recurring reporting for senior leadership, including maintaining and updating Monthly Business Review (MBR) slides with company-level KPIs and narrative context.
Build, own, and continuously improve self-serve dashboards for organizations/teams, ensuring metrics are clearly defined, quality checked, well-documented, and trusted.
Respond to reporting requests from Philanthropy, translating questions into clear requirements, pulling data, and delivering outputs on schedule.
Align on metric definitions, reconcile discrepancies, and partner with data/engineering on instrumentation or pipeline issues impacting reporting.
Create lightweight analyses to add context to reporting (segmentation, comparisons over time, funnel summaries) and communicate findings clearly.
Improve reporting workflows by templating, documenting processes, and automating repeatable tasks.
Shift toward building AI-powered, self-serve access via AI agents that can respond to stakeholder questions in real time.
