Full Job Description
On leveling: You may see job ads for this role at different job levels. Our priority is finding the right people, we can be flexible with job title/leveling.

Why You Will (Or Won't) Like Working Here
  • No slides: If you've worked in consulting, you know what it feels like to be up at 3am reformatting a deck. That doesn't exist here. The only work that gets done at Jerry is work that will materially change the trajectory of our business - an important product, a new growth channel, a key metric, a critical partner relationship, etc.
  • No corporate fluff: The Data Science & Analytics team is 14 insatiable learners who care deeply about solving difficult problems and making a tangible impact. Every person owns a critical domain. There is no bloat, unnecessary meetings, or waiting for approvals.
  • Hands-on: This is not a pure strategy role, you will also own execution. Your day-to-day will be surfacing analytical insights, driving decisions, and seeing them through end-to-end.


What You'll Own

You'll sit on our central Data Science & Analytics team but you'll be embedded in one of Jerry's core business areas - growth, product, AI and automation, strategic partnerships - and own the analytical function for that business unit end-to-end.
  • Define the right problems: Before any analysis, understand what business question it's answering and what decision it will inform. Push back if the question is flawed.
  • Data and insights: Define metrics, build reports, run analyses, design experiments, and surface data insights that move your team's key metrics.
  • Drive outcomes: Bring recommendations to your counterparts in product, growth, finance or operations, tell them what's happening and why, and what next steps should be.


Who You Are
  • First principles thinker: You break ambiguous problems into clear hypotheses before touching data. You're analytically strong (comfortable with SQL or Python) but your instinct is to ask "what are we trying to solve here?" before jumping to "what should I build?"
  • Direct communicator: You can walk a skeptical stakeholder through a complex finding and get buy-in quickly. You write clearly, speak precisely, and don't bury the lede.
  • Owner: You act like your name is on the door. If something is broken, you feel responsible for fixing it, even if it's outside of your swim lane.


What You'll Bring
  • 6+ years of experience at a consulting firm, investment bank, or high-growth technology company.
  • Strong analytical skills; ability to pull, structure, and interpret data independently.
  • Track record of owning ambiguous problems and delivering impact.
  • Clear, persuasive communicator who can influence decisions at the leadership level.
