Upstart · United States
Lead a team of analysts and data scientists who are embedded with each marketing channel and responsible end to end for its work
Put experimentation at the center of the team's work: decide which tests are worth running across channels, and make sure the results change what marketing does next
Guide the team's analysis toward explaining why a channel's performance moved and what marketing should do about it
Push the team to bring forward work nobody asked for, like analysis that spots a problem or an opportunity, before marketing knows to ask
Hold a high bar on the team's measurement work, including incrementality tests and attribution, and ensure high-quality outputs
Work with marketing, finance, and product leaders to set the team's roadmap, and bring that business context back so your team works on the right problems
Hire and develop a team that marketing leaders treat as a partner, not a reporting service
Minimum Qualifications: 10+ years in data science and analytics, including 5+ years managing teams of analysts and data scientists
Technical depth across the work a marketing analytics and data science team does, including reporting, experiments, causal inference, and attribution, and a clear sense of which approach a given question needs
Enough SQL and Python to check your team's work yourself
A record of hiring well and growing people into more senior roles
Good judgment in ambiguous, greenfield areas: you can frame a question nobody has asked yet and decide whether it's worth the team's time
Clear written and verbal communication with marketing, finance, product, and technical audiences, and the willingness to tell a senior leader when the evidence doesn't support their plan
Preferred Qualifications: A PhD or master's degree in statistics, economics, computer science, or another quantitative field
Experience bringing AI tools into a team's analysis and reporting work
Position location This role is available in the following locations: Remote
Time zone requirements The team operates on the East/West coast time zones.
Travel requirements As a digital first company, the majority of your work can be accomplished remotely. The majority of our employees can live and work anywhere in the U.S but are encouraged to to still spend high quality time in-person collaborating via regular onsites. The in-person sessions' cadence varies depending on the team and role; most teams meet once or twice per quarter for 2-4 consecutive days at a time.
