Drive Forecasting Rigor: Own the development of time-series forecasts that guide our capacity planning and resource allocation. You will help us anticipate 'what comes next' with higher accuracy
Design & Analyze Experiments: Lead the design and analysis of A/B tests and causal inference studies. You will ensure we measure the true impact of our product and operational changes
Uncover Deep Insights: Apply advanced statistical methods to complex datasets to find patterns that simple reporting might miss. You will answer the 'why' and 'how' behind our most difficult questions
Productionize Solutions: Work closely with Data Engineers to take your models from a local notebook to a production environment, ensuring they run reliably within our data infrastructure
Communicate Complexity: Translate complex statistical findings into clear, actionable narratives for non-technical stakeholders. You will be the voice of statistical reason in strategic discussions
Qualification

Statistical Expertise: You have a strong background in statistics, probability, and mathematics (e.g., hypothesis testing, regression analysis, time-series forecasting)
Python & ML Proficiency: You are fluent in Python and its data science ecosystem (pandas, scikit-learn, statsmodels, NumPy). You write clean, reproducible code
Forecasting Experience: You have hands-on experience with time-series analysis and forecasting techniques (e.g., ARIMA, Prophet, exponential smoothing)
Advanced SQL: You can write complex queries to wrangle your own data from Snowflake without relying solely on others to prepare it for you
