Growth Data Scientist — Measurement Lead

The team has never run a single incrementality test, and — for a hyper-local product — still bids uniformly nationwide. Meanwhile an automated bidding system is being built. Without a trustworthy incrementality signal, it will shift budget at machine speed toward whatever attributes best, which is typically whatever is least incremental. The efficiency at stake is in the eight figures annually, and it gates most other growth work. This role sits independently, not under the media-buying team — otherwise day-to-day campaign work will crowd it out.
