This role is designed for a heavyweight Data Science leader with a deep background in consumer-facing products. Despite being labeled "mid-level" in the metadata, the requirements are strictly senior: you’ll need an advanced degree (Master’s or Ph.D.) and between 6 to 10+ years of high-level industry experience. This is a strategic position for someone who excels at using causal inference and experimentation to steer product roadmaps rather than just pulling data. The compensation is a major standout, with a base salary reaching up to $303,900 plus equity. The flexibility is equally high, offering permanent remote work across the US or the option to work from major hubs like SF or NYC. As a "Staff" level hire, you aren't just an individual contributor; you are expected to be a force multiplier who mentors junior talent and builds the self-serve tools that define the organization’s data culture. **You might be a good fit if you:** * Have a proven track record of influencing executive-level product strategy through complex statistical modeling. * Thrive in "ambiguous" environments where you must define the problem before solving it. * Are an expert in SQL and Python/R who can also build your own ETL pipelines when necessary. * Want to work on a massive scale (116M+ daily users) where your insights directly impact global community engagement.
