  3. Develop new models and advanced analytics techniques to measure and optimize the marketing spend in a robust manner.
  4. Support the development of less senior scientists, collaborating with team members to assure timely delivery of high-quality work.
  5. Build standardized and scalable solutions, and lead from the front in setting up the best practices.

Please apply if you have:

  1. Advanced degree (Masters, PhD) in Data Science, Statistics or a related field.
  2. Extensive experience with data manipulation and extraction using relational databases (SQL).
  3. Ability to write high quality, scalable, maintainable code (Python, R).
  4. Strong story-telling and presentation skills to understand and communicate in the language of business partners, mostly within Marketing.
  5. Strong foundation in experimentation methods and causal inference techniques.
  6. Experience in marketing science measurement methodologies like Causal impact, geo-lift on Google, and Marketing mix models.
  7. Proactive work style, needing minimal guidance and demonstrating good judgment.
  8. Has a keen sense of success criteria and demonstrates success through end-to-end QA. Independently adheres to strong testing and validation principles.
  9. Passionate about large data sets in marketing, finance, and economics. Skilled in paid marketing data, time-series analysis, econometrics, and regression models.

Benefits:

  • Work from (almost) anywhere for up to 20 days per year.
  • Focus on mental health and well-being:
    • Company-paid therapy sessions through SpringHealth.
    • Company-paid subscription to HeadSpace.
    • Company-wide week off a year - the whole team fully recharges (and returns without a pile-up of work).
    • No meeting Fridays.
  • Paid parental leave.
  • Generous paid vacation + time off for your birthday.
  • Focus on your career growth:
    • Development Dollars.
    • Leadership development.
    • Access to thousands of on-demand e-learnings.
  • Travel Discounts.
  • Employee Resource Groups.
  • Competitive retirement and health plans.
  • Free lunch 2 days per week.
  • Fun quarterly events such as boat trips, arcades, ski trips, Thursday happy hours, and more.
