[Hiring] Senior Director, Analytics and Data Science @Life360

Role Description

This Senior Director leads MAU Analytics and Data Science.

• You and your team will work across acquisition, activation, engagement, and retention on the analysis, models, and experiments behind each.
• A lot of what this role owns needs to be built rather than maintained: the measurement, the standards, and how the team uses AI.
• The team is also raising its craft, and coaching people through that is an important part of the job.
• Within a year, your team members will be operating at an elevated skill level, proactively bringing key questions to light, and serving as trusted advisors whom stakeholders consult for strategic guidance rather than simple task execution.
• You will report to the Head of Data and work closely with counterparts leading Revenue Analytics and Data Science, and with the leaders of Data Engineering.

Qualifications

• 10+ years in analytics, data science, or decision science, including 5+ years in people management in a senior leadership role.
• Deep expertise in inferential and causal analytics. Able to lead ML practitioners.
• Expert knowledge of engagement, retention, churn, and cohort metrics.
• Experience forecasting a company-level metric and being held to it.
• SQL, plus Python or R.
• Experience with Databricks, third party experimentation tools (e.g. Statsig), Tableau or similar BI tools, and AI native BI tools (e.g. Hex, AI/BI).
• Hands-on with coding agents (Claude Code or equivalent) in your own analytical work.
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent.

Requirements

• Familiarity with experiment design to identify and control for network effects.
• Master’s degree or PhD with an emphasis in social science, psychology or other behavioral science.
• Experience leading a team that reports to you but sits embedded with product and engineering teams.
• Experience in a B2C subscription business.

Benefits

• Paid parental leave.
• Mental Wellness Program & Employee Assistance Program (EAP) for mental well-being.
• Generous time off: flexible PTO, companywide holidays throughout the year plus summer and winter shutdowns.
• Learning & Development programs.
• Equipment, tools, and reimbursement support for a productive remote environment.
