• Advance Causal Inference & Experimentation: Lead the design of complex "always-on" incrementality testing and geo-holdout experiments. Develop methodologies to measure the long-term "halo effect" of brand marketing on organic growth.
• Lead Through Influence: Collaborate deeply with Marketing, Growth, and Finance to translate complex data insights into actionable budget shifts.
• Be the Technical Guide for the Team: Mentor junior scientists and set the technical bar for code quality and statistical rigor across the Marketing organization.
