Ask HN: I design datavis but what is my job title?
I work in the data analysis field. I have a background in BI but I specialise in designing ways to encode data to a visual format.
I'm not a Data Scientist because my mathematical abilities are laughable at best but I do work with statistics and data, especially in the communication of these.
I wouldn't say I have anxiety over it but I would like to be able to tell people my role in a one liner.
I know a rudimentary amount of D3 and various other JS libraries, smattering of Python and lots of experience with Enterprise BI stacks.
...WTF am I?
- dlu 12y agoData Visualist Or I'd go with a designer role. Designer within the Data group? Something like that
- aregularguy 12y agoIf $$'s a concern, I'd lean on the data analysis side more-so than design.
