About the Role

This is an applied data science role partnering closely with the Customer team, focusing on building and shipping models for customer lifetime value, survival analysis, incrementality testing, and channel mix. It's a senior individual contributor role where influence is driven by technical excellence and thought leadership, aiming to raise the bar for data usage in marketing decisions.

Responsibilities

  • Build and own lifetime value and churn models to guide Marketing's customer segmentation and spend allocation.
  • Design and execute incrementality experiments (RCTs, quasi-experiments) to validate marketing intervention effectiveness and establish experimental standards.
  • Develop spend-curve and scenario planning models to forecast incremental outcomes from channel investments.
  • Collaborate with marketing and commercial stakeholders to frame hypotheses, design tests, and communicate results to non-technical audiences.
  • Productionize models, monitor for drift, and maintain reliability from prototype to deployment.

Requirements

  • 7+ years in applied data science, statistical modelling, or quantitative research with a proven track record of shipping impactful models.
  • Proficiency in writing production-quality Python or R.
  • Strong statistical modelling skills including regression, survival and hazard models, Bayesian inference, and time series.
  • Experience with data platforms on AWS or GCP for deploying and scaling models.
  • Expertise in causal inference methods such as difference-in-differences, synthetic control, interrupted time series, and matching methods.
  • Solid SQL skills and hands-on experience with a cloud data warehouse (BigQuery preferred).
  • Ability to communicate technical concepts clearly to non-technical stakeholders.
  • Experience utilizing AI agents and tools for analysis, code generation, and data exploration.
  • Experience in marketing analytics, including customer LTV, media mix modelling, or channel attribution in e-commerce or subscription contexts.
  • MLOps experience, including model versioning, deployment pipelines, monitoring, and retraining workflows.
  • Familiarity with the GCP ecosystem (BigQuery, Vertex AI, Cloud Run).
  • Experience presenting to senior commercial stakeholders or embedding models into business planning cycles.
  • Background in e-commerce, subscription, or retail with a focus on customer behaviour data.
