Compensation:
$147,000/year to $208,000/year + bonus + equity + benefits
Responsibilities:
- Design and evaluate A/B experiments to measure the causal impact of product changes on user behavior and key product metrics.
- Develop and maintain predictive models and statistical frameworks to generate actionable insights that inform product strategy.
- Build scalable data pipelines and self-service visualization interfaces that enable cross-functional partners to explore and interpret product performance data.
- Define success metrics and measurement frameworks that connect product goals to business outcomes.
- Conduct exploratory and confirmatory analyses on large-scale behavioral datasets to identify opportunities and surface risks.
- Collaborate with product managers, engineers, and designers to translate analytical findings into prioritized product decisions.
- Communicate complex analytical results clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders through written narratives and data presentations.
- Advise cross-functional partners on analytical design, hypothesis formulation, and interpretation of quantitative and qualitative research.
- Integrate AI tools into analytical workflows to accelerate insight generation, improve reproducibility, and expand the scope of analyses.
- Contribute to team-level goal setting by sizing opportunities, tracking operational performance, and identifying gaps in existing measurement approaches.
Minimum Qualifications:
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
- Experience in data science, applied analytics, or a related quantitative field working on consumer or enterprise products.
- Experience designing and analyzing controlled experiments, including hypothesis formulation, statistical testing, and interpretation of results.
- Experience writing production-quality code in SQL and at least one scripting language such as Python or R to manipulate and analyze large-scale datasets.
- Experience building predictive models using statistical or machine learning techniques and translating model outputs into product recommendations.
- Experience developing data visualizations and self-service dashboards to communicate product performance to diverse stakeholders.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience building forecasting models using time series methods to project product or business metrics.
- Experience adhering to and implementing responsible, ethical AI practices (e.g., risk assessment, bias mitigation, quality and accuracy reviews).
- Demonstrated ongoing AI skill development (e.g., prompt/context engineering, agent orchestration) and staying current with emerging AI technologies.
- Experience working on social platforms, feed ranking, notifications, or engagement products where behavioral data is high-volume and high-dimensional.
- Experience applying causal inference methods such as difference-in-differences, instrumental variables, or regression discontinuity in a product analytics context.
- Demonstrated ability to integrate AI tools to optimize/redesign workflows and drive measurable impact (e.g., efficiency gains, quality improvements).
- Demonstrated ability to influence product roadmap decisions through data storytelling and stakeholder alignment at the team or organizational level.
