Predictive Modelling & Machine Learning
• Build predictive models for conversion, churn, revenue, and engagement using regression, classification, or time-series approaches.
• Identify opportunities for prescriptive analytics and automation in key product and marketing workflows.
• Support development of reusable ML pipelines for production-scale use cases in product recommendation, lead scoring, and SEM planning.
Collaboration & Communication
• Present insights and recommendations to a variety of stakeholders — from ICs to executives — in a clear and compelling manner.
• Translate business needs into data problems, and complex findings into strategic action plans.
• Work cross-functionally with Engineering, Product, BI, and Marketing to deliver and deploy your work.

• Familiarity with LTV modelling, retention curves, cohort analysis, and media attribution.
• Experience with GA4, Google Ads, Meta, or other performance marketing platforms.
• Clear communication skills and a track record of turning data into decisions.
Nice to Have
• Experience with BigQuery and Google Cloud Platform (or equivalent).
• Familiarity with affiliate or lead-gen business models.
• Exposure to NLP, LLMs, embeddings, or agent-based analytics.
• Ability to contribute to model deployment workflows (e.g., using Vertex AI, Airflow, or Composer).
Why Join Us?
