Job description
The CA. Department of Social Services' Research, Automations, and Data Division (RADD) is recruiting for a Research Data Analyst II (RDA II).
Learn about CDSS programs, the existing body of knowledge related to those programs, and how they have changed over time. Use this understanding to assist in formulating and investigating research questions about programs that, if answered well, will make them more effective. Working collaboratively with programs to formulate useful research questions/strategies and generate actionable insights is more important than sophisticated analysis.
- Assist with data collection, documentation, management, and analysis including cleaning and assembling the files for data analysis. Use basic computational techniques (programming in R, Python, Stata, SAS or other languages) and inferential statistics to understand and analyze the completeness, quality and relevance of data to research questions of interest.
- Conduct literature review on safety net and child welfare programs and underlying policies, and assist in the development of knowledge management infrastructure that makes it easier for the Exploratory Research Unit and its program partners to apply the latest insights from social science research to program decision-making.
- Assist in drafting presentations and/or written reports related to research findings (both internal and external). Presentations of research findings will often be tailored to different audiences with different levels of technical understanding. We value the ability to communicate ideas clearly, both verbally and in writing, to a range of audiences.
- Assist in the management of projects investigating research questions developed in collaboration with program partners. This includes email correspondence with project stakeholders, drafting project documentation including research proposals, and documenting decisions made through the research project lifecycle
