Kumu is a web-based data viz platform that helps people understand complex relationships, mostly through network, systems, and stakeholder maps. We’ve spent years refining Kumu’s visualization platform, and we’re embarking on our next phase: developing a suite of specialized tools for tackling tough problems (such as building stronger communities through
Weavr, building better teams through
Compass, and collecting better data through
Undercurrent and
System Effects).We’re currently working with some of the world’s top organizations including The Omidyar Group, Gates Foundation, Hewlett Foundation, USAID, Stanford ChangeLabs, Democracy Fund, World Bank, Humanity United and more.
On a day-to-day basis you’ll primarily be working with Ryan (
@rymohr) and will be involved throughout the entire development process: from the initial brainstorm to flush out the basic architecture all the way to the final stages of testing and release. We like to move fast and ship often, and we try to break work into weekly deliverables to keep everyone’s expectations and progress in check. We do a quick hangout at the beginning of each week to revisit everyone’s immediate priorities.Once a year the whole team gets together for an adventure, with past retreats including snowboarding in Oregon, surfing in Hawaii and rock climbing in Colorado.If you're interested, please send an email to
