About this role

In this role, you'll build the measurement frameworks that define how we evaluate agentic systems, run high-stakes experiments, and directly shape product and business strategy through data-driven storytelling. This is a senior individual contributor role with real executive visibility and the opportunity to pioneer how an enterprise thinks about AI reliability and impact.

Set the statistical standard - Serve as the department's final reviewer for statistical methodology, ensuring rigor is appropriately calibrated to the stakes of each analysis. Influence strategy through storytelling - Translate complex quantitative findings into clear, actionable narratives for executive leadership, shaping both the product roadmap and long-term business direction.
