  • Proficiency in SQL - able to write structured and efficient queries on large data sets
  • Experience in programming, especially with data science and visualization libraries in Python or R
  • Experience in online experimentation and statistical analysis
  • Experience in applying Machine Learning techniques (e.g. reinforcement learning) to solve customer problems (e.g. personalization, segmentation)
  • Strong oral and written communication skills, and ability to collaborate with and influence cross-functional partners

Benefits:

  • Extended health and dental coverage options, along with life insurance and disability benefits
  • Mental health benefits
  • Family building benefits
