Who you are
- 8+ years of experience in data science, machine learning, or applied analytics, with demonstrated leadership of complex analytical products in product-driven environments
- Experience defining a scientific or data-product roadmap, and the ability to explain what you prioritized, what you declined, and why
- Experience leading cross-functional delivery with Sales, GTM, Product, and Engineering, including shaping customer pilots and defending product value directly
- A track record of building differentiated datasets or audience products from imperfect sources, with clear trade-offs on coverage, validity, and cost
- Experience with audience expansion, panel calibration, data fusion, or measurement products that held up beyond the original sample
- Ownership of complex causal measurement, including defending your assumptions under scrutiny and changing a recommendation when the evidence fell short
- Judgment on reach–precision and revenue–cost trade-offs, including recognizing when more scale reduced value
- Sustained audience or monetization gains and customer adoption, with measured outcomes used to redirect product strategy
- Evidence of influencing senior stakeholders, such as times when evidence changed a pitch, commitment, or investment
- Hands-on depth in SQL, Python, statistical modeling, and causal inference
- Experience mentoring scientists and establishing reusable methods that improved quality beyond your own work
- Substantial ownership of audience, measurement, or monetization data products in advertising, retail media, market research, consumer panels, or a comparable commercial setting is strongly preferred
- Experience translating market research or quantitative social science into repeatable products and customer or commercial decisions
- A background in political science, survey methodology, econometrics, demography, or another resource-constrained quantitative field
What the job involves

- Define what results can and can’t support, especially when a causal claim or generalization goes beyond the evidence
- Turn bespoke studies into repeatable products
- Build the feedback loop between audiences and measurement, with the holdouts and monitoring to trust what it tells you
- Connect first-party monetization with third-party products, including using audience insights to acquire and engage high-value users
- Lead the scientific case with Sales and GTM, from customer discovery and pilots to positioning and handling buyer objections
- Influence senior stakeholders and commercial commitments with explicit, evidence-backed recommendations
