  • Craft, analyze, and present customer behavior metrics, such as funnel conversion, user churn, features engagement, product LTV, and cross-sell metrics. Design tests with product and marketing partners to improve these metrics.
  • Work with seasoned business leaders to understand revenue, costs and profitability across various revenue streams.
  • Analyze and perform statistical analysis on data that underlies our product experiments.
  • Build exploratory & predictive models to help decision makers understand customer behaviors and segmentation.
  • Stay focused on what’s best for the company – be flexible when needed while staying steadfast on core goals.

What you’ll need

  • Bachelor’s degree required (Masters preferred) in Computer Science, Math, Physics, Engineering or quantitative field.
  • 4+ years of relevant work experience
  • Intellectual curiosity and aptitude to pick up new technical skills
  • Exceptional problem-solving skills
  • High EQ with ability to influence outcomes and communicate technical content to general audiences
  • Ability to initiate and drive projects to completion with minimal guidance
  • Ability to communicate assertively and succinctly, influencing stakeholders to make data driven decisions.
  • Strong programming skills in SQL, Python and proficiency in Tableau
  • Experience with experimentation and hypothesis testing
  • Ability to work in a dynamic, cross-functional environment, with strong attention to detail
  • Strong relationship building and collaborative skills
  • Nice to have

  • Experience in a financial organization
  • Experience in working with growth-focused products
  • Familiarity & interest in Generative AI systems, including RAG and LLMs
