• Conduct deep analyses of customer behavior, segments, and retention patterns to inform marketing and product strategy.
• Design, run, and evaluate experiments (e.g., A/B tests) to measure the impact of marketing initiatives and guide decision-making.
• Assess multi-channel campaign performance and provide clear recommendations to marketing partners to improve outcomes.
• Work closely with cross functional teams and leadership to enhance data quality, evolve marketing datasets, and support scalable analytical workflows.
• Communicate insights clearly and effectively, turning complex analyses into actionable recommendations for leadership and cross-functional teams.

• Experience with predictive modeling, such as LTV, churn, conversion propensity, clustering, and time-series forecasting.
• Familiarity with mobile measurement partners, including AppsFlyer or Adjust, and mobile attribution concepts.
• Experience designing and evaluating experiments, with a solid grounding in statistical testing, causal inference, and uplift modeling.
• Demonstrated ability to work cross-functionally, partnering with Marketing, Product, Finance, and Data Engineering stakeholders.
