Role
Who you are

- Track record of using experiment results to recommend launching, iterating, or stopping
- Ability to frame causal questions and distinguish prediction from causal impact
- Experience defining KPI frameworks for a product workstream
- Track record of influencing launch or roadmap decisions, with quantified impact on adoption, retention, engagement, revenue, or efficiency and clear personal ownership
- Experience identifying retention drivers and evaluating which users benefited and whether gains persisted
- Experience applying predictive models to segment users or forecast outcomes
- Strong proficiency in SQL and at least one programming language, preferably Python
- Experience working with large-scale data systems such as Snowflake, dbt, Airflow, or Spark
- Ability to communicate assumptions and uncertainty clearly
- Bachelor’s degree in Statistics, Mathematics, Computer Science, Engineering, or a related quantitative field
Desirable

- Experience evaluating incentives, lifecycle interventions, or personalization
- Experience validating whether targeted treatments improve outcomes
- Track record of sharing reusable analyses and knowledge with your team
What the job involves
- Independently design, execute, and interpret product experiments for feature development, owning power analysis, primary metrics, and guardrails
- Frame causal questions by defining the population, outcomes, and time horizon needed to show whether a product change caused improvement
- Define KPI frameworks for teams to optimize around, linking product objectives to primary, secondary, and guardrail metrics with clear definitions and success criteria
- Recommend launch, iterate, or stop based on effect size, uncertainty, user value, and business impact
- Balance speed and rigor, and identify when more evidence could change a decision
- Turn ambiguous product questions into structured, credible analysis
- Connect metric movements to behavioral drivers and check alternative explanations
- Use product analytics to understand the user journeys and behaviors most impactful on retention and downstream outcomes, and use those insights to inform product development
- Evaluate how effects differ across user segments without overinterpreting noisy subgroup results
- Separate novelty and short-term gains from persistent, long-term value
- Develop predictive models that act as the intelligence layer for our lifecycle intervention systems
- Use audience segments and predictive signals to help the product team tailor treatment delivery to drive monthly active users and revenue, and validate that targeted treatments actually improve outcomes
- Build clear narratives that translate findings into product action, influencing priorities and launch decisions as the trusted analytical owner for your workstream
- Produce reusable analyses and share analytical knowledge across the team
- Leverage tools and technologies such as Python, SQL, Snowflake, dbt, Airflow, Spark, and AWS to conduct and scale analytical work
Our take
Leading mobile shopping and loyalty platform Fetch has seen explosive success in recent years. Its concept is simple: users receive spendable points in exchange for scans of their shopping receipts.
The app has tens of millions of daily active users with even more downloads, and has seen impressive growth, having now reached 'unicorn' status twice over. This should come as no surprise. Brand reinforcement is crucial to customer retention and acquisition - but it is harder than ever, with the fragmentation of choice on the market and the declining efficacy of marketing. So material loyalty benefits are likely to prove a crucial tool in creating and leveraging a strong customer base.
Whilst Fetch faces competition from similar receipt-scan rewards platforms like ReceiptPal and Ibotta, it grew into a profitable company in late 2023. And its using its most recent Morgan Stanley-backed funding to aggressively add brand partners at a competitive pace and onboard staff at a level that promises strong continued growth.
