Our stakeholders span the life cycle, from groups with a long history of experiments who are looking to scale up and improve utilization, to groups with small sample sizes who are newly realizing their ability to unlock the value of experimentation.

You will lead a team of software development engineers, machine learning engineers, and applied scientists, with a range of experience levels. You’ll help them develop in their careers, and collaborate with data science and data engineering teams to land new features and tooling integrations. Working with product management to prioritize and ensure that the team meets its obligations to partners, you will also have a major role in developing, communicating, and realizing the long-term experimentation vision.
