  • 8B+ earned since Patreon's inception

  • 30M free new memberships in the first year of launching that option, and

  • You are a SQL expert and have experience in Python or R to perform statistical analyses.

  • You have a track record of building strong relationships with product, engineering, research, and design teammates.
