About the role

You bring experience from organizations where marketing analytics is taken seriously, whether that's a global technology company, an Indian consumer tech company, a data-driven marketing organization, or a specialist analytics firm. You understand the discipline of marketing science and the craft of building teams that do it well.


Requirements:

  • 8+ years of hands-on experience in data science, marketing analytics, or applied measurement. Deep expertise in marketing mix modeling (MMM): methodology, tooling, business integration, and stakeholder communication.
  • Strong knowledge of marketing attribution, incrementality testing, and causal inference methods (geo-testing, diff-in-diff, synthetic controls, uplift modeling).
  • Experience with performance forecasting and budget optimization in a marketing context.
  • Proven ability to manage and influence senior stakeholders across functions and geographies.
  • Strong executive communication skills: comfortable presenting complex methodology and business implications to senior marketing and business leaders.
  • Deep proficiency in SQL and Python or R; experience operating in production analytics environments.
  • Comfort operating in a globally distributed team environment with US-based counterparts.


Nice to Have:

  • Exposure to offline marketing analytics, brand measurement, or upper-funnel attribution.
  • Experience scaling and modernizing legacy marketing measurement infrastructure.
  • Familiarity with dbt, Databricks, Snowflake, Airflow, or comparable data infrastructure.
  • Experience building or managing analytics teams across multiple geographies.


What Sets You Apart:

  • You build measurement frameworks that marketing leaders actually use to make decisions, not just deliver reports.
  • You communicate across the spectrum, from walking an analyst through a causal design to presenting budget implications to a CMO.
  • You hold a high bar for analytical credibility while being pragmatic about delivery timelines.
  • You build strong cross-geography partnerships.
  • You stay technically grounded even as your scope grows; you know when to go hands-on and when to step back.
