About the role
Senior leadership role owning Tailscale's experimentation program for high-traffic website pages, including roadmap, test design standards, and delivery of high-stakes tests. Remote-first role with collaboration across web strategy, web development, design, product marketing, and analytics.
Responsibilities
- Own the experimentation roadmap, from taking in ideas across the team to prioritizing them against traffic, expected impact, and cost.
- Set and maintain the standards every test runs on, including sizing, statistical power, minimum detectable effect, guardrail metrics, and the rules for shipping, iterating, or stopping a test.
- Review test designs before launch and results before they're shared, so every number we report is one we can stand behind.
- Design, build, and run the most consequential experiments yourself, particularly on pricing and the homepage.
- Own the health of our testing platform and measurement with web development and analytics, so tracking works and results reconcile with our analytics data.
- Maintain the experiment record as the source of truth for what our website has learned, and turn accumulated results into recommendations for web strategy.
- Report program results to marketing leadership: what we learned, what shipped, and what we're testing next.
- Coach contributors across web, design, and marketing on hypothesis quality, test design, and reading results correctly.
Qualifications
- 6–9 years of experience in conversion optimization, web experimentation, growth marketing, or a related field, including ownership of an experimentation program across multiple pages or products
- Deep experience with a testing platform such as Optimizely, VWO, or a comparable tool, including program-level setup and governance
- Strong command of experiment statistics, including power and sample size, minimum detectable effect, false positive control, guardrail metrics, sample ratio mismatch, and the risks of peeking and multiple comparisons
- The ability to evaluate a test's design and validity, and to explain plainly why a result should or shouldn't be trusted
- Comfort with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to build and debug client-side variations yourself
- Working proficiency in SQL and an analytics tool such as GA4, enough to validate results independently of the testing platform
- Sound judgment about when an experiment is the right tool, and when a change is low-risk and reversible enough to ship without one
- Clear writing and communication, with the ability to present results and tradeoffs to senior stakeholders
- Experience coaching or mentoring others on experimentation, formally or informally
- Comfort working in a remote-first, async environment
