What We Do

We are a team of insights specialists that focus on finding insights relevant to driving business outcomes across the Calm organization. For us, the business problem comes first (what are we trying to solve?) and the analysis follows (how do we best solve this problem?). Sometimes the solution is straightforward and sometimes it is highly complex, but in all cases we rely on data to drive our solutions.

As a Senior Data Scientist you will leverage Calm’s consumer data to help prioritize product and growth investments, identify opportunities to improve acquisition, conversion, engagement, retention, and subscriber growth, and automate analyses and data products for key decision-makers. In this role, you will partner across product and growth marketing to turn ambiguous business questions into clear analyses, experimentation plans, and actionable recommendations. You will use data to understand user behavior, measure the impact of product and marketing initiatives, and help teams make better decisions faster. This position is ideal for candidates who enjoy diving into new domains, building business intuition, and balancing statistical rigor with practical decision-making.

You Will: 

  • Collaborate with stakeholders across product and growth marketing to analyze and communicate how trends in key metrics affect business performance

  • Design, implement and analyze experiments to measure the impact of new features on core product metrics
  • Collaborate with partners across technical and non-technical teams to bridge the gap between data and action 
  • Help key-decision makers stay informed about the state of the business through internal data products built in tools like Amplitude, Tableau and Mode
  • Develop strong cross-functional partnerships across Calm to drive our team's success

Who You Are

  • Strong proficiency in SQL
  • Comfortable manipulating data with Python or R
  • BA/BS in quantitative field such as Statistics, Mathematics, Economics, Computer Science, Engineering, or a related discipline
  • Experience with designing, analyzing, and interpreting experiments
  • Ability to translate non-technical business requirements into technical solutions, and translate technical solutions into business outcomes
  • Strong relationship management and presentation skills
  • Pragmatic and impact-oriented, with the ability to balance scrappiness and rigor

Nice to Haves

  • Experience working on digital consumer products or subscription businesses
  • Experience supporting product analytics, experimentation, user acquisition, lifecycle marketing, or retention
  • Experience with causal inference, incrementality testing, attribution, or marketing measurement
  • Experience working with product analytics and BI tools such as Amplitude, Tableau, and Mode
