## About the role

You'll take on a product area within core Kikoff as its data lead, working day to day with the product, engineering, design, and lifecycle marketing leads for that area, and you'll sit in the Kikoff-wide conversations on roadmap and objectives. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- Experience partnering with product, engineering, and marketing peers across the whole arc of the work: strategy, goal setting, approach, and execution, not just the analysis at the end
- A track record of defining metrics from scratch and getting a team to run on them, including for products where success was hard to pin down
- Designed and ran experimentation programs, including changes where clean randomization wasn't available. Comfortable with quasi-experimental and causal inference methods, and clear about their limits
- Hands-on with production-quality SQL and Python. You build pipelines, analyses, and models yourself
- AI tools are a core part of your daily analytical work and you can show how they changed the speed and quality of what you ship
- You drive decisions with data in front of senior audiences, including when the data doesn't support the plan
