Good at thinking through high leverage research projects that you’re happy to iterate on or sunset if they don’t pan out so you can test new approaches/insights? You might be the ideal Discovery Project Scientist @ArcadiaScience! Our next round of review begins in about a month so this is the time to apply! jobs.lever.co/arcadiascience…

Aaron Swartz’s father is in desperate need of a kidney…he has been in renal failure for over a year now. If you know of anyone who might consider donating, please send them my way. And please boost this! Thanks everyone!
