Jonathan Vitale is a data scientist and product analyst with 13 years of experience applying cognitive science and software development to improve children's learning and assessment. He blends a Ph.D. in Cognitive Studies in Education with hands-on programming (Java, JavaScript/HTML, C/C++) and statistical expertise (R, SPSS, Matlab) to design assessment tools, dashboards, and education products at scale, including recent roles at Google and district-wide analytics for the School District of Philadelphia. His background as a classroom math teacher and postdoctoral researcher informs a pragmatic, research-driven approach to product decisions and evaluation. Comfortable with both experimental design and production analytics, he focuses on projects that measurably boost academic outcomes for children. Based in Collingswood, NJ, he is actively seeking opportunities in the New York–Philadelphia corridor and brings the uncommon combination of classroom experience, fMRI research exposure, and product analytics.
