Flexport is hiring a data analyst

Flexport is a platform for global trade. As a global logistics company built around a modern web application, our goal is to make it easier for the next generation of brands to get their products to market.

Paul Graham says,"Flexport is one of those rare startups that will not merely satisfy its market, but grow it. There will be more international trade because of Flexport, and international trade is a very big thing for there to be more of."

We've raised $6.9M from great investors including Google Ventures, Bloomberg BETA, First Round Capital and others. And we've reached product-market fit with over $1M in monthly revenue, so we're now looking to build out our team here in San Francisco.
