Who we are
At arenaflex, we have developed strong opinions on how companies should practice analytics. Specifically, we believe that:
- Code-based transformations offer unmatched flexibility and transparency across various “multi-player” development to power everyone in the organization to collaborate on a common language
- Data analysts should adopt similar practices and tools to software developers
- Critical analytics infrastructure should be controlled by its users as open source software
- Analytic code itself - not just analytics tools - will increasingly be open source

We're looking for passionate individuals who share our vision and values, and are excited to join our team as we continue to shape the future of analytics engineering.
