The Manager, Data Analytics will lead a team of 4-6 analysts delivering reporting and analytics for LiveRamp customers, powered by LiveRamp's Clean Room. This is a player-coach role: you will own the growth, quality, and throughput of the team while staying hands-on with customer data yourself on our most complex and highest-visibility engagements. You will partner closely with Customer Success, Product, and Engineering, and act as the senior analytics voice in front of customer stakeholders.
You Will:- Manage, coach, and develop a team of data analysts and senior data analysts-setting goals, giving regular feedback, running performance and career development conversations, and hiring to grow the team.
- Own delivery across the team's portfolio: allocate analysts across customer engagements, set priorities and timelines, and hold the bar on quality and client-readiness of every deliverable.
- Stay hands-on. Personally lead analyses on complex, ambiguous, or strategically important engagements, and serve as the reviewer of record for methodology and interpretation on the rest.
- Build for scale. Invest the team's time in analytics systems, templates, and reusable libraries of analysis that generalize across customer use cases and verticals rather than one-off work.
- Establish and enforce standards for analytical rigor, peer review, documentation, and reproducibility-including for observational analytics on multi-dimensional datasets and experimental designs.
- Serve as a senior point of contact for customer stakeholders: shape requirements, present findings, handle escalations, and build durable relationships with analytics and marketing leaders.
- Translate what the team learns from customers into product direction, working with Product and Engineering on the measurement roadmap and on new offerings in the analytical space.
- Drive adoption of AI across the team's workflows-developing new applications and tools for measurement data analysis to expand product capability and improve client deliverables.
Your team will:- Work closely with product and engineering teams to support and understand LiveRamp's suite of measurement products and their respective methodologies.
- Dive deep with internal and external clients to understand their measurement and analytical needs and translate them into product improvements.
- Help design new offerings in the analytical space.
- Design and develop insightful dashboards using a variety of data visualization tools to inform decision-making for both internal and external stakeholders.
About you:
- 6+ years of experience in analytics or data science, including 2+ years leading analysts-either as a people manager or as a team/project lead with clear ownership of others' work and development.
- Bachelor's degree in Statistics, Economics, Engineering, Computer Science, or another quantitative field.
- Deep expertise in advertising measurement and attribution. AdTech industry experience required; familiarity with the TV industry is a plus.
- Still fluent in the craft: able to independently build analysis in SQL, Python, Excel, and statistical methods, and to review someone else's methodology and catch what's wrong with it.
- Strong track record of creating and presenting data-driven dashboards and presentations that tell a story, with hands-on experience in Metabase, Tableau, and/or Looker.
- Solid understanding of data modeling techniques, with the ability to explain complex concepts to different audiences.
- Demonstrated success in client-facing environments, including presenting complex analyses to large, non-technical audiences and adapting to technical ones-and handling escalations with credibility.
- Experience managing competing priorities across multiple concurrent customer projects and multiple analysts, without letting quality slip.
- Interest, willingness, and demonstrated ability to quickly pick up new technology, including AI solutions, and to bring a team along with you.
- A self-starter who brings energy, passion, and creativity to work every day, and who takes genuine satisfaction in other people's growth.
