Reddit is continuing to grow our teams with the best talent. We're completely remote friendly and will continue to be after the pandemic.

We are looking for a Data Scientist to work with our Content and Communities Team to drive insights on how communities on the platform grow and evolve, as well as, the impact of community growth on content production.  Your work will be critical to furthering Reddit’s mission of bringing a sense of community and belonging to our millions of users.   You will partner with other data scientists, engineering teams, PMs, and designers, and your work will help encourage community participation, content creation, discovery, adoption, retention, and growth.
