- Help run A/B testing experiments on new insights and features from a data perspective.
- Help develop and maintain the framework for how we measure user value in the app.
- Build robust and well-tested solutions.
- Work closely with the Lead Developer as well as other business stakeholders outside of the data science function.
- Communicate and document technical and architectural decisions.
- Internalize UpBeing and what we stand for and consider our users in every decision you make.
- Ensure privacy and security is imbued into everything you build.
- Do and learn new, awesome things all the time.

**What You Need to be Successful**:

- Formal education in a professional field or clearly demonstrated relevant professional experience.
- Fluency in Python.

- Experience with version control tools such as Git with platforms such as GitHub.
- Solid interpersonal and collaboration skills and a demonstrated ability to work within a team.
- Strong attention to detail.
- Comfort working in a low overhead, low red tape, fast moving environment
- Strong sense of humility, with a learning mindset and a drive to improve.
- Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills.

**Nice to Have**:

- Experience using Laravel as a backend framework along with some PHP coding skills.
