About the role
As a Member of Data Staff, you will own the full picture of how data enters and flows through Simile - both the third-party datasets we license and the first-party data we collect.
What they're looking for
- You are excited about enhancing Simile’s data supply chain: You are excited about expanding Simile’s global data partnerships and the engine through which we collect data all over the world
- You are interested in building scalable processes: You can hold many live threads at once and still know the status of each. When you leave a project, the person after you can reconstruct every decision and why it was made
- You have intuition for what makes an interesting dataset: You know when a dataset is worth spending time with, when an exclusivity clause is worth paying for, and when to keep looking for alternatives. You are willing to say no to something impressive
- You have negotiating experience or aptitude: You are effective in rooms where you have no leverage and no warm introduction. Some of our highest-value sources will come from convincing an organization to do something it has never done before
- You are comfortable looking at and thinking about data. You think about things like data biases, sample selection, ideal data schema for the simulation task, the tradeoffs of various collection strategies, and what high quality data should be defined as
More about this role
Simile is The Simulation Company. We simulate human behavior to keep people at the center of the decisions that shape the world. With AI, anyone can create a product, a campaign, a policy, or a script — the bottleneck has moved upstream. The hard question is no longer whether you can create something, but what to create, for whom, and how to bring it to life. Those are fundamentally human decisions, and they shouldn't be left to chance or handed off to an algorithm. We're building the infrastructure to understand human behavior at scale and to represent humans in an increasingly agentic world. Our mission is to simulate all eight billion people on earth.
We launched five months ago. Since then we've grown revenue 5x, built a new foundation model for human behavior that has run tens of millions of simulations for F100 enterprises, trained a first-of-its-kind confidence model that predicts the accuracy of every simulation, and released the first product that lets organizations verifiably predict the future. The world's leading companies use Simile to make business-critical decisions — from consumer leaders like CVS Health and Wealthfront to professional services organizations like...
