Data Lead

Our mission at Product Hunt is to surface great products every day and support our community of Makers in building the future. We obsess over delivering an amazing experience to all of our users, and we are building a world-class team of community builders to achieve that.

We’re seeking our first data hire to help shape the future of what we build at Product Hunt. You’re excited about working on a community-driven product: sitting at the intersection of data and psychology, and seeing your insights turned into real products on a regular basis. You are focused on results, and have demonstrated success in using analytics to drive the understanding, growth, and success of a product.

 

You Will

Work closely with cross functional partners (eg. community, product, sales) to address gaps in our understanding of Product Hunt users and their behavior.

Identify actionable insights through funnels, cohort analyses, user segmentation, retention analysis, and models to help us grow our community.

Design and evaluate A/B tests and product feature experiments to determine the effectiveness of product strategy.

Forecast and set team goals and make them easily available through ETLs and reporting dashboards.

Communicate results and business recommendations to diverse audiences.

Provide recommendations for data improvement, quality, and efficiency of data.

You Are

BA/BS in Computer Science, Math, Economics, Statistics or another quantitative field.

3+ years of related experience in quantitative analysis, preferably with consumer products.

A solid grasp of common statistical methods and applications (A/B testing, time series analysis, forecasting and regression).

Experience using data access tools and building dashboards and analyses with large datasets and multiple data sources.

Experience with social network analysis and/or natural language processing

Ability to communicate and discuss complex topics with technical and non-technical audiences.

Entrepreneurial and self-directed; demonstrated ability to innovate and bias toward action in fast-paced environments.

Bonus points for experience working with distributed teams.

How We Work

Curious – Product Hunt was founded with an experimental mindset, an important principle when building something new

Authentic – People seek authenticity more than ever. It’s a value we hope to demonstrate inside and outside the company.

Kittenish – We’re serious about our work, but that doesn’t mean we can’t have fun 🙂

We’re a distributed team across 9 countries including Bulgaria, Canada, France, India, Ireland, Spain, Switzerland, United Kingdom, and United States. It’s important to us to build an inclusive team – across gender, ethnicity and experiences – to best serve our global community.
