• Core Expectations • Problem-solving mindset: You structure ambiguous problems precisely before reaching for a tool, AI or otherwise. • Problem-solving mindset: • Ownership mentality: You take responsibility for your work from framing the question through delivering the recommendation and tracking its impact. • Ownership mentality: • AI-native working style: You use AI tooling (Claude Code or equivalent) as a genuine development partner: delegating discrete tasks, reviewing outputs critically, and running parallel workstreams. • AI-native working style: • Curiosity and initiative: You don't wait for the roadmap to tell you what to analyze. You dig into data because you're genuinely curious about how things work. • Curiosity and initiative: • 6+ years in an analytics, data science, or decision science role at a consumer tech company • Advanced degree in a quantitative field (economics, statistics, quantitative social science, operations research) or equivalent practical experience • Demonstrated experience with causal inference methods in applied settings (e.g., difference-in-differences, instrumental variables, regression discontinuity, synthetic controls, propensity score matching) • Track record of influencing product or business strategy through data, with specific examples of cross-functional impact • Experience with experimentation platforms (Statsig, Optimizely, or similar) • Proficiency in SQL and Python/R for statistical analysis • Experience with subscription or freemium business models • Familiarity with international / multi-market analytics • Experience building dbt models or contributing to analytics engineering workflows • Background in growth, retention, or lifecycle analytics • Experience with LTV modeling, incrementality testing, or marketing mix modeling
Responsibilities
• Be the strategic thought partner for cross-functional teams (PMs, engineers, marketing, finance).You understand the roadmaps and users, and you notice the gap between what the data shows and what the team assumes. • Tell stories that move teams to act. You'll present to leadership and working teams with clear narratives and a point of view. A great insight that nobody acts on is a failed insight. • Establish causality with the right tools for the situation, including A/B testing, analytics, and causal inference. You work with engineering to implement event instrumentation and with Product to translate insights into action. • Work backward from an understanding of how users experience our product to develop and implement metrics strategies that measure what matters to our users and our business. This enables a deep understanding of our users and their motivation, in a complex ecosystem with multi-user engagement and many ways to interact with our product. • Build explanations on top of measurement, always grounding analysis in the reality that users are people with motivations and context the data alone won't tell you. • Use AI to multiply your impact. You'll use coding agents and automated analysis daily, and help shape what our AI-native analytics stack looks like, contributing to how we move from reactive to proactive to autonomous.
