Job Summary

Own the development and validation of MMM and incrementality programs, translating outputs into actionable budget optimization across channels, while mentoring teams and collaborating with data engineers.

  • Lead MMM design, validation, and scaling efforts.
  • Translate statistical outputs into executive-ready recommendations and budget reallocations.

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Architect, validate, and scale Bayesian/frequentist Marketing Mix Models (MMM) to establish true omni-channel media effectiveness and marginal ROAS curves.
  • Design, execute, and evaluate incrementality frameworks, including Matched-Market/Geo-Experiments, Synthetic Control Methods, and randomized controlled trials (RCTs).
  • Drive methodology for triangulating MMM outputs, attribution models, and experimental results into unified target response curves.
  • Build stochastic forecasting algorithms and lifetime value (LTV) models to optimize budget allocation across portfolio channels.
  • Develop reproducible, scalable modeling pipelines in Python or R, maintaining high standards for code quality, version control (Git), and data governance.
  • Custom-build adstock, saturation, and decay functions tailored to unique client buying cycles and macro-economic signals.
  • Collaborate with data engineers to integrate client data warehouses (Snowflake, BigQuery) with Relay, Mile Marker's open-powered marketing stack.
  • Bridge the gap between complex quantitative outputs and executive decision-making—translating statistical outputs into clear, actionable budget reallocations.
  • Partner with client strategy leads to draft data-driven Learning Agendas that systematically test incrementality hypotheses.
  • Serve as the subject matter expert in client meetings and pitch presentations, building credibility through methodological clarity and mathematical rigor.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of professional experience in Marketing Science, Quantitative Marketing, Data Science, or Econometrics, ideally within a high-growth agency, adtech, or direct-to-consumer environment.
  • Degree in a quantitative discipline (Statistics, Econometrics, Applied Mathematics, Computer Science, Economics, or related quantitative field) preferred.
  • Expert-level mastery of Marketing Mix Modeling (MMM), Bayesian statistics, time-series analysis, and causal inference techniques (Matched Markets, Synthetic Controls, Difference-in-Differences).
  • Advanced proficiency in Python (Pandas, NumPy, PyMC, Statsmodels) or R (Tidyverse, Prophet, CausalImpact) for data manipulation, statistical modeling, and automation.
  • Strong proficiency in SQL for querying complex relational databases and cloud platforms (BigQuery, Snowflake, Redshift).
  • Standard workflows using Git/GitHub .
  • Ability to build programmatic visualizations and clear analytical dashboards using tools like Streamlit, Dash, Tableau, or Looker.
  • Demonstrated ability to explain complex statistical models, confidence intervals, and incrementality tests to non-technical client executives.
  • Proven track record of translating model outputs into clear budget optimization strategies that increase client ROI and enterprise value.

Mile Marker

Mile Marker was created by the merger between PlusMedia and Cage Point. The result is an end to end media agency that speaks to its clients not at the media level, but at the business level.Our belief is that media, in all forms, should be held accountable for the delivery of measurable business outcomes, not just KPI. We view brand and performance media as complementary forces, working together to drive scalable growth. This means we leverage every media channel at our disposal, including ones that may have been forgotten by today’s marketers.
