Platformable is hiring: Open Ecosystems and API Industry Writer Senior Policy Analyst
3 min read
Platformable continues to grow!
Our work is focused on measuring the value of open ecosystems and the opportunities for everyone to participate and co-create. We have developed a number of data models that track open ecosystems in banking/finance, health, sustainability and government -- and the tools and frameworks that support these areas. Our models have been used and shared by the European Commission, the World Bank, the World Health Organization, global non-profits, community health organisations, governments, and the private tech sector.
To help us expand on that work, we are now seeking an open ecosystems and API industry writer senior policy analyst to join our team in a part-time, contract position.
Key responsibilities
- Assist with client-focused open ecosystem projects including privacy technologies, government use of APIs/AI/open source technologies
- Document and build on existing data models and datasets and strengthen internal and client-facing data governance systems
- Create impact metrics across all programs and assist with automation of systems to ensure metrics and data collection is standardised
An ideal new team member is someone with a strong API/open ecosystems industry experience and a passion to understand the policy impacts of data sharing, business ecosystems, tech regulation, data privacy, equity tech and the role of data governance and data stewardship. We are all learning a lot on the job, so an interest in continually building on your skillset and knowledge base is essential. Our goal is to make our data collection and analysis more interactive and more engaging, so you will work with our developer and designer team to help us experiment with how best to convey our findings and share our research. Because we have a particular view of open ecosystems, applicants will be expected to understand our priorities and approach (mostly by reading our series on open ecosystems and our other web content).
This work is fully remote, so as long as you can invoice, we are open to applicants from all over the world. We look forward to hearing from you!
