Company mission
To build a revolutionary creative platform powered by the world's best music model to bring the joy of musical expression to everyone, everywhere.
Role
Who you are
- 5-7+ years in data science or product analytics roles, ideally on consumer products
- Advanced proficiency in SQL, Python, and statistical modeling
- Deep experimentation experience grounded in statistical rigor: designing and running experiments end to end, deriving clear insights, and making strategic recommendations
- A broad data science toolkit and the judgment to pick the right tool for the right question, all ultimately in service of making thoughtful product decisions
- A self-starter mentality with an ownership mindset: you thrive in ambiguity, wear multiple hats, and never stop learning
- Strong cross-functional collaboration: you work closely with product, eng, and design, and influence stakeholders and teams through data insights
- Applicants must be eligible to work in the US
Desirable
- Experience at a fast-growing consumer app, or a startup that scaled through strong product-led growth
- Background in activation, lifecycle, or growth analytics
- Hands-on AI usage in day-to-day data science work (agents, prompting, building small tools)
- A love of music or creative tools
What the job involves
- As a data Scientist on Growth Product, you'll own the analytics for the early-life user journey: everything from the moment someone lands on Suno through their first sessions, first songs, and first reasons to come back
- A user's first few experiences are some of the most important inflection points in their lifecycle, and getting them right is one of the highest-leverage problems at Suno. You'll lead data science support on the Growth Activation team, working very closely with product, engineering, and design
- Own the analytics for how new users activate and form habits on Suno, from signup and onboarding through everything that happens in their first week on Suno
- Design experiments that improve the early-life journey, from push notifications and lifecycle messaging to product surfaces like Hooks, Create, and net-new experiences
- Sit on a centralized data science team but serve as the lead DS on Growth Activate, collaborating closely with product, engineering, and design
- Advance our mission of making creative fulfillment a daily reality for everyone by turning first visits into daily creative habits
- Contribute to building strong data foundations as part of our awesome data science team
Our take
Suno is a company leveraging AI for music creation, attempting to make it accessible to everyone, regardless of their musical background. The platform allows users to generate complete songs by inputting text prompts, breaking down the barriers that traditionally separate amateurs from professional musicians.
Unlike other AI music tools, Suno focuses on ease-of-use, enabling even those with no music theory knowledge to produce professional-sounding songs. This approach has already attracted a diverse user base, including everyday people and GRAMMY-winning artists.
Whether the vision sits comfortably with the wider music community is another matter. For many, AI-generated music still raises ethical questions around ownership and the value of human artistry. But with investors continuing to back Suno with hundreds of millions of dollars, it's clear they believe AI music is here to stay.
