Full Job Description
Marketing Analyst

The Marketing Analyst is the vital analytics partner who enables the marketing org to make data-driven decisions and navigate complexity with clarity. You will own the measurement, attribution, and experimentation work that tells us what is working, why, and what to do next. This is a proactive, impactful role-we are seeking a dedicated thought partner who brings unique insights and thrives on driving initiatives forward.

What you will do:

Measurement & reporting
  • Build and extend the marketing metrics (signups, cost per signup, CPA, attribution, engagement, retention) and reporting so partners can self-serve and trust the numbers, rather than rebuilding the stack from first principles each time.
  • Design the measurement approach alongside a campaign - defining KPIs, instrumentation needs, and success criteria before launch, so the team leads with data instead of reverse-engineering it afterward.
  • Own a process that connects campaign activity to downstream business signals (engagement spikes, care utilization, conversions) in near-real-time - replacing recurring fire drills with reliable, proactive reporting.

Experimentation & causal analysis
  • Partner on experiment design: pressure-test the hypothesis, check that tests are powered and correctly set up, and be clear about what we are actually trying to learn.
  • Run post-mortems that go past "what happened" to "what we should do next," proposing follow-on iterations and optimization plays.
  • Apply causal methods - incrementality testing, geo/holdout designs, and media mix modeling - to separate true signal from noise.

Acquisition & paid media analytics
  • Build LTV analysis by channel to guide budget allocation and channel strategy.
  • Stand up and maintain attribution across SKAN (iOS) and web, and reconcile platform-reported, modeled (MMM), and self-reported views into a coherent picture.
  • Partner with Product to land a "How did you hear about us" (HDYHAU) survey in the mobile onboarding flow, then turn it into a usable self-reported attribution signal.

Lifecycle & retention analytics
  • Analyze trial-to-paid conversion, engagement, churn, and reactivation across the lifecycle - without needing a briefing on what those metrics mean.
  • Work fluently with CRM / lifecycle data structures (e.g., Braze) and journey/funnel analysis.

What you will bring:

Required Skills:
  • 4+ years in marketing, growth, or product analytics, or a comparable quantitative role.
  • Strong Tableau and SQL skills, and comfort working directly in a data warehouse.
  • Hands-on fluency with a product analytics platform (Amplitude or similar) and with marketing measurement generally.
  • Marketing-metrics literacy - open and click rates, conversion funnels, CAC/CPA, LTV, and attribution concepts.
  • Demonstrated experimentation and causal-inference skills: A/B testing, power analysis, incrementality, and holdout design.
  • A track record of self-directed ownership - you drive your own deadlines and flag slippage proactively, before anyone has to chase.
  • The ability to translate analysis into clear, actionable recommendations for non-technical partners.
  • Care and rigor when handling sensitive member and health-related data.

Preferred Skills:
  • Mobile attribution experience (SKAN / SKAdNetwork) and familiarity with media mix modeling tools (e.g., Recast).
  • Experience with Braze or a comparable CRM / lifecycle marketing platform.
  • Experience supporting B2B marketing and partnership analytics, including account- or org-level reporting.
  • Background in subscription, consumer app, or digital health businesses.
  • A working relationship with, or strong instinct for partnering with, Data Engineering.

Location: This role is open to candidates across the US. Candidates must permanently reside in the US full-time.
