About the role
Founding Data Scientist role focused on zero-to-one measurement and growth, building data infrastructure, and owning scaling of measurement practices in a fast-growing AI-native startup.
Responsibilities
- Own incrementality testing across marketing, product, and rewards — proving its value from hypothesis to business impact.
- Build the data pipelines and measurement stack behind it, tying experiments to real shifts in user behaviour, monetisation, and multi-touch attribution.
- Drive experimentation strategy across growth and product: design, run, and interpret tests with a sharp focus on causal validity — not just p-values.
- Own data products end-to-end: scoping, architecture, implementation, rollout.
- Partner with C-level, engineering, and business stakeholders to turn measurement into live operational decisions.
- Set the frameworks and practices the team can scale on.
Qualifications
- Deep expertise applying causal inference and experimental design in practice, in real business contexts.
- Hands-on experience building and operationalising attribution models in a real business context — not just running models, but making them useful.
- Proven zero-to-one experience: ambiguous problem, built the infrastructure, shipped something production-ready.
- Proficiency in Python and SQL; GCP preferred; comfortable with modern data stack tools (dbt).
- Experience with programmatic advertising, ML pricing, or mobile measurement — MMPs, probabilistic attribution, or similar is a strong plus.
- Familiarity with AI and LLM tooling is a plus — whether that's integrating language models into data workflows, using AI-assisted analysis to move faster, or exploring how generative and predictive AI can sharpen measurement and personalisation at scale.
