Is This Role For You?
- You've led analytics teams at growth-stage FinTech, SaaS, or consumer apps and know how to scale from 2-3 to 5+ people
- You're comfortable moving between 30,000-foot strategy (MMM, brand lift, channel mix) and 30-second deep dives (funnel optimization, cohort analysis)
- You've shipped MMM, incrementality testing, or causal inference work and can explain trade-offs to non-technical execs
- You're excited about AI/automation-not as buzzwords, but as tools to replace manual weekly reporting and unblock faster decision-making
- You've optimized CAC/LTV in a consumer or B2C product business and can connect analytics insights to real business impact
- You're purely hands-on and uncomfortable hiring/managing/developing analysts or defining strategic direction
- You need full remote or flexible office days; this role requires 2 days/week in Mountain View
- You view analytics as a cost center (reporting) rather than a growth lever; EarnIn needs a partner who can move metrics
