About the Role
Join us as our first dedicated Data Scientist to bring order to the chaos of culture. You'll extract insights from hard-to-reach data sources to tackle the big questions: What cultural trends are emerging that everyone else is missing? How can we predict virality? And what characterizes an underserved category? You work fully autonomously alongside our founder and the team, next to a backend engineer who owns the pipelines and infrastructure, so your time goes into the questions rather than the plumbing.
Responsibilities
- Discovering and opening up untapped data sources, using creative scraping and acquisition techniques when standard APIs run out.
- Analyzing trends, audience behavior, and performance across streaming and social to find underserved categories and growth opportunities, and proposing next steps.
- Prototyping and deploying ML models on AWS for virality prediction and content analysis, and verifying their production performance.
- Designing and interpreting A/B tests, holdouts, and spend experiments across releases and campaigns, and advising on strategic resource allocation.
- Owning dashboards and reports for leadership, and investigating key metric drivers.
- Utilizing LLMs and agentic coding tools to accelerate data cleaning, analysis, and reporting.
Requirements
- A degree in Data Science, Statistics, Computer Science, Physics, Math, or a related quantitative field.
- 3 or more years of hands-on data science experience in fast-paced business environments (Tier 1 consultancies, Big Tech, high-growth start-ups, scale-ups, or media industry leaders).
- Expert-level proficiency in Python with standard data science and ML frameworks.
- Daily proficiency with SQL.
- Experience scraping and acquiring raw data from new sources, building creative solutions beyond standard APIs.
- Ability to design and interpret experiments properly, distinguish signal from noise, and conduct A/B tests or causal analyses that influence decisions.
- Experience deploying models that are actively used and maintaining their integrity over time.
- Extensive hands-on experience with agentic coding tools and LLMs in data workflows.
- Ability to identify opportunities in data, propose next steps, and create trusted dashboards and visualizations (using standard libraries or Tableau).
- Strong collaboration skills across engineering, product, and business teams.
- Ability to thrive in a fast-paced and performance-oriented environment.
- Obsession with music, video, or social media is a plus.
