Reddit is “the front page of the internet” — a vast network of communities that come to share and discuss the very best the Internet has to offer each day. 

The Creator team is focused on helping creators grow their communities and make a living on Reddit. We are among the most innovative and forward-looking teams at the company and you’ll have a massive impact on day one.

We are looking for a Data Scientist to work with the Creator team to help define what is one of our most strategic initiatives and understand the impact different activities and incentives have in our communities and content. By partnering with feature engineering teams and product managers, your work will directly shape conversation on one of the largest websites on the internet.

What you’ll do

• Partner cross functionally to help define the Creator team’s roadmap and initiatives.
• Build models to measure metrics and relations across Reddit’s content
• Analyze trends in engagement with Reddit content, and convert them into insights that drive higher levels of active engagement
• Build and design analytic infrastructure that helps the Content team tell detailed stories about Reddit’s moderators and engaged users
• Design and evaluate A/B tests and product feature experiments to determine the effectiveness of product strategy
• Define team metrics and goals and make them easily available through ETLs (extract/transform/load) and reporting dashboards

What we’re looking for

• 4 years of experience in quantitative or data science roles, preferably for a consumer-facing service/app
• Proficiency with relational database (e.g., SQL)
• Familiarity with statistical analysis and programming languages (e.g., R / Python)
• Results-oriented with a strong customer and business focus
• Entrepreneurial and self-directed, demonstrated ability to innovate and bias toward action in fast-paced environments
• Ability to communicate and discuss complex topics with technical and non-technical audiences.
• Ability to tackle ambiguous and undefined problems
