  • Investigate launched feature performances by using third-party analytics tools (like Google Analytics or Mixpanel), and iterate on the growth plan according to performance and results
  • Closely monitor core metrics and work closely with our data science team to uncover new insights
  • Report on KPIs at a regular cadence, bringing forth new opportunities and ideas to scale audience growth and conversions

Requirements

  • Strong experience in writing clean, reliable code (we use Python and Typescript)
