  • Design measurement strategies, advise on experimentation best practices, identify flaws in experiment practices and results, and build tools for experiment analysis.
  • Identify the right measures of success for engineering teams and help them track these metrics.
  • Break down high-level metrics into actionable segments, including collecting new datasets and building dashboards to track metric components.
