Senior Staff Data Scientist

• Serve as a trusted analytical partner to PLG leadership, using evidence and product judgment to influence investment decisions and roadmap priorities

• Influence product strategy through evidence, product instincts, and a clear point of view, without relying on formal authority to do it

What You'll Bring:

• 8+ years of experience in product analytics, growth analytics, or data science, with a track record of high ownership and measurable impact on PLG or consumer product outcomes

• Deep understanding of product and growth dynamics across activation, engagement, conversion, monetization, and retention

• Demonstrated ability to turn behavioral data into product hypotheses and carry them from insight through experimentation and measured outcomes

• Deep experimentation expertise: study design, statistical reasoning, causal inference, and the judgment to know when an experiment has told you what you need to know

• Experience building analytical systems such as metrics layers, monitoring frameworks, or semantic models that teams can rely on over time

• An AI-native approach to analysis: you use AI tools actively to accelerate investigation, automate repetitive work, and surface patterns faster

• A track record of influencing senior stakeholders and product direction through analytical reasoning, clear recommendations, and sound judgment

• Comfort operating with significant autonomy in ambiguous problem spaces, including determining which questions are most important to answer

• Strong written and verbal communication skills in distributed environments, with the ability to make complex findings clear and recommendations actionable

This Role is a Great Fit If:

• You're energized by finding the opportunity before anyone thought to ask - proactive discovery is how you naturally work, not a mode you shift into

• You think like a product person who happens to be exceptionally rigorous with data, not a data person who occasionally weighs in on product

• You thrive when the problem isn't handed to you - you'd rather define the question worth asking than answer the one that landed in your queue

• You get excited about building systems that keep working after you've moved on to the next problem

• You're comfortable making a call with imperfect information and can articulate clearly why you made it

• You enjoy being a thought partner to senior leaders - shaping how they think about investment and opportunity, not just supporting decisions already made

• You work well in a remote-first, async environment where written clarity and self-direction matter more than proximity

• You're drawn to roles where the measure of success is outcomes, decisions made, bets tested, metrics moved, not volume of output produced
