  • Design and oversee experiments to evaluate product impact and optimize advertising outcomes.
  • Build forecasting models and apply Bayesian frameworks to support strategic decisions.
  • Develop scalable data pipelines and reporting tools across cloud platforms.
  • Communicate insights through clear, compelling visualizations for technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Mentor junior data scientists and foster technical excellence across the team.

Basic qualifications

  • 4+ years of experience in data science roles focused on advertising, marketing analytics, or client measurement, with a strong ability to connect data insights to business strategy.
  • 2+ years of experience in experimental design, statistical modeling, and causal inference, with a conceptual understanding of how these methods support decision-making and business impact.
  • Proficient in Python or R and SQL, with 1+ years of experience writing code that supports both analytical rigor and scalable data workflows.
  • 1+ year of experience working within cloud-based data environments (e.g., GCP, AWS, Azure), with a conceptual understanding of cloud infrastructure and its role in scalable analytics.
  • 2+ years of experience leading data-driven projects, influencing cross-functional teams, and translating complex concepts into actionable strategies
  • Bachelor's Degree on Statistics, Computer Science or a related field
  • Preferred qualifications

  • Advanced degree in Statistics, Computer Science, or a related field.
  • Experience in ad tech or client-facing analytics.
  • Familiarity with AI / ML tools and their business applications.
