Here’s what we're looking for:

• At least 3-5 years experience in a similar role, ideally at a product-focused software company
• Strong SQL skills, and comfortable in at least one scripting or statistical programming language (ideally Python and/or R)
• Strong knowledge of statistics and experiment design and ability to apply these to conducting and interpreting analyses, data visualization, presentation and recommendations
• Excellent communicator - able to effectively deliver findings and recommendations to non-technical stakeholders in a clear and compelling fashion
• Passionate about teaching and evangelizing a data-informed approach to product development to product managers, designers and engineers
• MS or PhD in a quantitative field + at least 1-2 years experience in a business environment, or BS or Data Science Bootcamp graduate + equivalent experience in a business setting considered

Our cash compensation amount for this role is targeted at $127,000-$174,000/year in Denver & most remote locations, and $154,000-$212,000/year for San Francisco & New York. Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors including candidate experience and expertise and may vary from the amounts listed above.
