Apply to be a 2021 Data or Teaching Fellow

​​
Delta brings a passion for data and top notch technical talent to drive change in the non-profit world.
FAQ

Who you are

You have deep technical knowledge of data science, engineering, or data visualization and want to help the world. In your professional life, you might serve as an economic consultant, a data scientist, data analyst, or a software engineer. Your technical skills and love of data have brought you professional success, and your drive to make an impact has brought you to us. It's time to focus your efforts on bringing the best in data to the nonprofit world. 

​​As part of your volunteer experience with Delta, you will grow your technical, personal, and interpersonal skills. You will also be joining a community of like-minded, data-driven and passionate people, forming lifelong friends and connections.

Delta fellows work in two key areas: data consulting and teaching.
​

DATA FELLOWS ​
2021 applications are currently closed

  • Technical consultants who give their time to help our partner non-profits drive impact across the world. You will find trends and new opportunities for a nonprofit, quantify their impact, or set up data infrastructure built for longevity. You will find unique challenges serving clients from around the world. 
  • Our partner nonprofits drive change in many spaces. For example, Village Enterprises is devoted to alleviating extreme poverty in rural Africa; Transforming Education is effecting change to the education system by bringing students key success skills related to Mindsets, Essential Skills, and Habits (MESH); Tenants Together is effecting change locally to San Francisco by working for tenant advocacy rights.  ​​​

EXPECTATIONS
  • Time expectations are 5-10 hours per week, with monthly cohort-wide Saturday remote working sessions.
  • While the program is traditionally based in the San Francisco Bay Area, for the first time, we are accepting remote applicants across the US. 
  • This fellowship is a 6-month commitment that you make to your team. Our cohort cycle is typically January to July of each year.

TEACHING FELLOWS

  • Curriculum developers, teachers, and data enthusiasts who are excited to help build technical capacity across the world and make machine learning accessible. We believe that data is powerful, and anyone should be able to leverage it for good. 
  • We are currently recruiting teaching fellows to support two initiatives: (1) building out a curriculum focused on data foundations, and (2) support the second iteration of our Global Teaching Fellows program.
  • Learn more about our machine learning for good programs here, which describes our pilot program in Nairobi, Kenya in 2017 and our efforts since then to democratize access to machine learning tools and data education.​

EXPECTATIONS
  • Time expectations are 5 hours per week, with weekly group meetings and monthly hackathons.
  • Our cohort cycle for 2021 will likely be from March to November.
