About the Role
We're looking for an Applied Scientist to join the CRM Marketing Science team.

What You'll Do

• Design and analyze experiments on our email, push, and SMS campaigns to estimate the impact of our marketing comms - campaign-by-campaign and holistically - on user behavior, sentiment, and perceptions.
• Support Uber's global teams of marketers by discovering and answering open questions about marketing efficiency.
• Collaborate with applied scientists in the Paid Marketing and Marketplace teams to refine our statistical methods and disseminate best practices.
• Partner with Product and Engineering teams to improve instrumentation and infrastructure for experimentation and measurement.

Basic Qualifications

• PhD, MS, or Bachelor's degree in Statistics, Economics, Machine Learning, Operations Research, or other quantitative fields
