About the role
We're hiring a Staff Decision Scientist to lead Advanced Analytics: the methods, models, and standards the rest of the data team builds on. You won't be embedded in a single Operating Group (OG). You'll work across all of them, pushing how we run experiments and establish causality, and owning the MAU forecast and growth model that leadership uses to plan the business. You'll report into the Data & Analytics leadership team. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- 8+ 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
- Deep, applied experience with causal inference methods (e.g., difference-in-differences, instrumental variables, regression discontinuity, synthetic controls, propensity score matching)
- Experience building and owning a forecast or growth model for a core business metric (e.g., MAU, DAU, subscribers, revenue), including cohort- or component-based approaches
- Expertise in experiment design and analysis at scale, including variance reduction, sequential testing, and network effects or interference
- Experience with experimentation platforms (Statsig, Optimizely, or similar)
