Overview
We're building a Frontier Marketing organization where the Media Data Science & Analytics team leads the way in transforming how Microsoft measures, analyzes, and optimizes media and digital experiences. Our team blends advanced analytics, experimentation, and AI-powered insights to drive smarter decision-making and measurable business outcomes across paid media and owned digital properties.
 
 
We operate with agility, prioritize outcomes over activity, and embrace rapid learning loops to unlock deeper audience understanding, maximize impact, and accelerate innovation in media and discovery strategy.  To support this transformation, we are seeking a Senior Data Analyst, Media Data Science & Analytics (eCommerce) to serve as the analytical engine behind Microsoft's eCommerce business.
 
 
Microsoft's mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. Our culture embraces a growth mindset, collaboration, and inclusion, where everyone can thrive.
 

Responsibilities
  • Dashboards & Self-Serve Analytics - Build and maintain dashboards, reports, and self-serve analytics that give eCommerce, web, and marketing partners timely, accurate visibility into commerce performance across Microsoft's owned digital storefronts — so they can focus on acting on insights rather than wrangling data.


  • Funnel Measurement - Analyze the web and eCommerce journey — from acquisition and on-site engagement through sign-up, checkout, conversion, and revenue — connecting customer behavior to the durable business outcomes our partners own, such as gross adds, conversion, and revenue.


  • Deep-Dive Analysis - Investigate revenue, product and offer performance, customer behavior, and operational efficiency to surface actionable insights for partners, proactively bringing trends, anomalies, and opportunities forward without waiting to be asked.


  • Trustworthy Data Foundation - Integrate data from multiple sources and partner closely with Data Engineering, Finance, Web data teams, and other partners to define metrics, validate data quality, and ensure analytical outputs are built on a reliable, well-modeled, analytics-ready single source of truth.


  • Metric & Reporting Standards - Help establish consistent Key Performance Indicator (KPI) and metric definitions, reporting standards, and documentation practices that scale as the analytics function and its self-serve tools grow — so partner teams work from the same metrics language.


  • Performance Driver Analysis - Identify and quantify drivers of performance change — including product and offer launches, merchandising and promotional changes, technical factors, seasonal patterns, and external events — so partners know what's real and what to act on.


  • Experimentation - Support experimentation — such as A/B tests and web experience changes — to evaluate the impact of eCommerce improvements and give partners confidence in what to scale.


  • Work Smarter with AI - Leverage AI-assisted and agentic tools such as Microsoft Copilot to accelerate analysis, automate recurring reporting workflows, and move from manual, reactive reporting toward proactive, scalable insight that reaches partners faster.


  • Translate, Communicate & Partner - Turn ambiguous business questions into structured analytical frameworks, deliver clear findings to both technical and non-technical audiences through recurring readouts and deep-dive investigations, and collaborate cross-functionally with eCommerce, web experience, engineering, and marketing partners to prioritize improvements grounded in data.

  • Other - Embody our Culture and Values
