I'm surprised Lambda School is hiring a Lead Data Scientist. They're a coding bootcamp, right? What could they need a data scientist for?

Lambda School is expanding their curriculum and trying to add more data science and machine learning courses. They need a lead data scientist to help with curriculum development, hiring instructors, and overseeing the program.

I heard they're on the verge of getting a big round of funding. Maybe this hire is part of their growth strategy?

Seems like a trend these days. I've noticed a lot of bootcamps and EdTech companies adding data science to their curriculum. It's a growing field and in high demand.

I totally agree! But a Lead Data Scientist seems like a pretty big role for a bootcamp. I'm interested to see who they hire and what their vision is for the program.

I'm excited to see Lambda School's take on data science education. They've made a lot of waves with their income share agreement and ability to make learning accessible. I'm curious how they'll translate that to data science.

I hope they make data science accessible to everyone, not just those with a CS or statistics background. Lambda School is great at making tech less intimidating.

As a bootcamp grad, I'm curious if this will mean more opportunities for graduates to work in data science. Seems like it could open up a lot of doors.

It definitely could! More opportunities for bootcamp grads to get into data science is a good thing. The more diverse voices in the field, the better.

I'm interested to see if Lambda School will take a project-based approach to data science like they do with coding. Seems like that could be a good fit.

I hope so! I think a project-based approach is a great way to learn, especially when it comes to data science where practice is key.

Same here! I'm currently in the coding program at Lambda School, but I've been thinking about data science too. I hope this means more opportunities for all of us.

Adding data science to their curriculum is a great move. It's an in-demand field and can open up a lot of opportunities for their students. I'm interested to see how they approach it.
