In this role, the Data Analyst provides analytic/research support to Psychometricians and Assessment & Research staff through data management, data dissemination, and statistical analysis.

Reporting to the Manager, Psychometric Data Analysis, the Data Analyst has the following responsibilities:

• Perform routine processing (data validation, calibration, equating, and scoring) for Item Response Theory and Classical Test Theory exams.
• Perform data analyses in statistical software (SAS and R). Support code repository quality and maintenance.
