Senior Data Scientist - job 1 of 4

Coda started with an observation: In a world full of applications, why do documents and spreadsheets still run everything? And why haven't they been meaningfully updated in over 50 years?

It's a big product with an even bigger mission. And we need your help to spread the word!
