Senior Growth Data Scientist at Replit

Lead growth data science for Replit’s natural-language app creation platform, spanning experimentation, monetization, segmentation, and recommendations. Work with Product, Engineering, and Data Engineering teams.

Description

  • Lead data science across major growth initiatives, partnering with Product Managers and engineers from problem definition and sizing through launch and results review.
  • Design experiments and metrics for timely, reliable decisions when retention results take time, using CUPED, sequential testing, and validated short-term proxy metrics.
  • Set experimentation standards for Replit’s busiest product surfaces, defining metrics and guardrails and identifying broken tests.
  • Apply quasi-experimental methods, including difference-in-differences, synthetic controls, and regression discontinuity, when randomized tests are impractical.
  • Shape data science for personalization and recommendations, from problem definition and offline and online evaluation to measuring incremental lift.
  • Model the economics of a freemium, usage-based product, including credit use, conversion, pricing, and limits.
  • Build user and project segments from behavioral and content signals using methods such as embeddings and clustering.
  • Work with Data Engineering to build shared metrics and experimentation tools.

Requirements

  • Data science experience at a fast-growing startup, building metrics, datasets, and experimentation practices with limited existing infrastructure.
  • Strong command of experimental design and statistical inference, including making reliable decisions with short readout windows and slow-moving outcomes.
  • Experience establishing experimentation standards or platforms used by multiple teams.
  • Expertise in SQL and Python.
  • Evidence that your analysis changed what a team shipped, and ability to influence senior Product and Engineering leaders.
  • Extensive practical use of AI tools to accelerate your work.

  • Experience analyzing pricing, packaging, or monetization for usage- or credit-based products is preferred.
