Job Description

Samba TV tracks streaming and broadcast video across the world with our proprietary data and technology. We are on a mission to fundamentally transform the viewing experience for everyone. Our data enables media companies to connect with audiences for new shows and movies, and enables advertisers to engage viewers and measure reach across all their devices. We have an amazing story with a unique perspective on culture formed by a global footprint of data and AI-driven insights.

Come build with us!

Samba TV is an AI-forward data, measurement, and technology company. Using billions of signals from smart TVs, data partners, and the open web, we connect what media people watch and consume with what they do online and the real world. We use this information to help the world’s leading brands make data-informed decisions in content and media planning, content and ads measurement, audience activation, and more.

We are seeking a curious, forward-thinking, customer-obsessed, and technically-savvy insights leader that can dive deep into our databases to surface insights that add value to our customers and the marketplace writ-large. The role reports to the VP Measurement Science, and sits within the Measurement Science team, a consultative service organization responsible for using Samba data to add value to customers. This is a net-new role in the company, and the ideal candidate will be able to operate autonomously, navigate ambiguity, and manage through complexity to deliver results quickly for the business. The good news? We know we are sitting on a gold mine of data that no other data company can deliver - this role will have a critical position in shaping the next generation of insights products and services for the media market.

Sound exciting? We think so too!

• Ideate and Deliver Bespoke, Consultative Insights - You will work collaboratively with sellers, sales engineers, product teams, and data scientists to ideate and deliver bespoke insights, service, or data solutions that add value and deliver ROI for Samba’s most strategic, high-value customers.
• Deliver Standardized Insights Reports & Improve Retrieval for Internal Teams - You will support business development teams by delivering standardized insights that sales teams will use in prospecting, pitches, customer outreach, and more. You will proactively improve the retrieval methods for standardized reports and recurring insights requests to enable self-service insights at scale among sellers
