Economist, Ramp Economics Lab

The Role: AI-Driven Economic Architect

Ramp is looking for a data-driven economist to helm the Ramp Economics Lab, the primary source for tracking how the modern business world invests in artificial intelligence. You won't just be crunching numbers; you will lead the flagship Ramp AI Index and create high-visibility research cited by the world's top financial publications. This is a high-agency position where you own the entire data pipeline, from the initial SQL query to the public-facing visualization.

Modern Tech & Vibe Coding Culture

At Ramp, the "vibe coding" ethos is baked into the workflow. You will utilize a modern data stack featuring Snowflake, Redshift, and Hex, while leveraging AI assistants to accelerate your data science and design tasks. The team values builders who can move from a complex question to a functional visual or argument quickly, using AI to bridge the gap between economic theory and technical execution.
