Rivac LabsData Visualization Engineer
A chart that's technically accurate but perceptually misleading — a truncated axis, a rainbow color scale, a chart type that hides the actual trend — does real damage when executives make decisions from it. We build data visualizations in D3 or Vega grounded in real chart-design principles: honest scales, colorblind-safe palettes, and a chart type chosen because it fits the data, not because it looks impressive. This is for teams whose dashboards are either misleading their own stakeholders or too slow to render at real data volumes. You get visualizations that are fast, accessible, and tell the truth about the underlying data.
How We’d Approach This
A clear, staged plan — not a black box
- 1
Review existing charts and dashboards for perceptual honesty, accessibility, and performance at real data scale.
- 2
Build pilot visualizations for the highest-stakes charts, testing against colorblind-safe palettes and real data volume.
- 3
Review the pilot charts with stakeholders to confirm they read correctly and support the decisions being made.
- 4
Roll out the full visualization set with performance optimization for your actual dataset sizes.
