  • Excellent organizational, analytical, and data science skills.
  • Strong problem-solving abilities.
  • Interpersonal skills for cross-group and cross-culture collaboration.
  • Experience with real-world system building and data collection.

Responsibilities

  • Define, invent, and deliver metrics to measure user and business value.
  • Design and critically evaluate sampling and experimental approaches.
  • Interpret analysis results and iterate to improve product offerings.
