About this Team
This role is part of our Analytics & Data Science team. Being Data Driven is a core value of [Employer hidden] and this team plays a huge part in this.

What you’ll be working on:
- Lead and scale the Analytics and Data Science organization, hiring and developing managers and ICs while designing team structure to support deeper data science adoption across the business
- Embed analytics and data science into core business workflows, ensuring insights, models, and decisioning systems are consistently used in product, risk, and growth decisions
- Partner with Data Engineering to shape BI and data science platform architecture, influencing data models, tooling, and workflows to enable reliable, scalable analytics and ML
- Translate business needs into analytical and data science solutions, working cross-functionally to ensure systems are reusable, well-governed, and aligned with platform constraints
- Drive delivery of complex, cross-functional data initiatives, providing clarity in ambiguous problem spaces and ensuring outcomes meet business and technical expectations
- Set technical and analytical standards across analytics and data science, raising the bar for modeling quality, productionization, and documentation through guidance and review
What we’re looking for:
- 7+ years experience in analytics, data science, or related roles, including 3+ years leading managers or senior ICs
- Proven experience partnering with executive and senior leadership, using data to influence strategy and company-level decisions
- Demonstrated ability to design and evolve analytics and data science organizations, including team structure, standards, and operating models
- Strong technical foundation with experience working alongside data engineering on modern data platforms (e.g., Snowflake, dbt, Airflow, Looker), with fluency in SQL and Python
- Sound architectural judgment, with the ability to balance speed vs. scalability and clearly explain tradeoffs to technical and non-technical stakeholders
- Strong ownership mindset with the ability to prioritize competing initiatives and deliver results in ambiguous, fast-moving environments
