Data Science @ Clay
We're looking for a data science "Olympian" to own full-funnel insights-from shaping our data infrastructure and asking the right questions to running experiments and delivering sharp analyses. As a foundational data hire reporting directly to our CEO, you'll play a pivotal role in driving strategic decisions and building a data-driven culture. Our data stack is best in class (we use Snowflake, dbt, Dagster, Hex, Sigma, Eppo, and Census)
Impact you'll have:

  • Drive strategic insights: Own the full-funnel insight process, transforming data into actionable recommendations for go-to-market and product
  • Deliver clarity: Translate complex data findings into simple, actionable insights that resonate with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • Set up data infrastructure: Contribute to building and scaling our data transformation and orchestration capabilities, ensuring accurate and timely data delivery
  • Empower self-serve analytics: Develop a robust self-serve analytics platform that empowers all teams to access and leverage data effectively
  • Champion a data-driven culture: Establish best practices that encourage non-data teams to use insights effectively
  • Experiment: Design and set up experiments that test hypotheses and measure impact, driving continuous improvement in processes and products


Qualifications

  • 4+ year experience
  • Expert in SQL and Python or R
  • Robust understanding of statistical and machine learning methods
  • Experience with data transformation tools (dbt) and data orchestration tools (Dagster or Airflow)
  • Live in New York (or willing to relocate)


Life @ Clay
Based out of a central office on 19th Street in Manhattan's Flatiron District. We love the energy of in-person collaboration while also offering the flexibility to work from home when needed.

  • Competitive salary and role trajectory: Roles, responsibilities, and comp grow as we do
  • Health insurance: Fully funded, high quality health, dental & vision coverage (including 80-100% therapy coverage)
  • Paid time off: We expect team members to take at least 3 weeks fully-disconnected per year, with a flexible vacation policy beyond that
  • Parental leave & fertility support: IVF fertility benefits, egg freezing, and 4 months of paid parental leave
  • Free lunch: Lunch is provided in office every day
  • Visa sponsorship: We get it - it's an arduous process, but we're not scared of it
