About the role:

Fetch is at a critical inflection point in how data and science inform the company’s most important decisions. With millions of monthly active users, rich item-level purchase data, and increasing investment in AI-driven products like FetchGPT, Fetch has an opportunity to establish a rigorous, scalable measurement and causal reasoning foundation that powers pricing, incentives, growth, marketing investment, and financial planning.

We are seeking a Staff Data Scientist to serve as the company-wide scientific and measurement leader. This role goes beyond traditional analytics or domain ownership. You will define how Fetch measures value, reasons about causality, and translates evidence into executive decisions. You will own core measurement frameworks, architect semantic and metric foundations, and set the scientific quality bar across analytics, experimentation, and strategic modeling.

Within your first year, you will define Fetch’s MAU × ARPU measurement operating system, establish canonical metrics and semantic standards powering FetchGPT and executive reporting, and deliver strategic models such as marketing mix, elasticity, and incentive sensitivity that directly inform leadership decisions.

• Company Measurement and Causal Strategy.
• Establish decision frameworks for pricing, incentives, and value trade-offs.
• Set standards for evidence quality, uncertainty, and confidence in decision-making.
• Define the causal reasoning model used across product, growth, marketing, and finance.
• Own the scientific capability roadmap including elasticity, value curves, MMM, and forecasting.

Semantic and Data Architecture

• Architect the semantic mart and metric logic powering FetchGPT and scalable insights.
• Define canonical metric definitions and unify logic across experimentation platforms, dashboards, and diagnostics.
• Partner with Analytics Engineering and Data Platform to build foundational data assets.
• Establish BI standards and eliminate redundant or conflicting dashboards.

Scientific Governance and Experimentation

• Serve as the quality bar for high-impact analytics and diagnostics.
• Review strategic analyses to ensure correct interpretation and mechanism alignment.
• Set scientific rules for experimentation and validate high-risk tests such as pricing and incentives.
• Ensure observational and experimental results reconcile cleanly.
• Create templates and interpretation guides to standardize rigor.

Strategic Modeling Ownership

• Own cross-company models that drive executive decisions, including marketing mix modeling, elasticity and incentive sensitivity, value expectation curves, strategic forecasting, and financial mechanism models supporting MAU × ARPU planning.

Org-Wide Scientific Leadership

• Raise the scientific maturity of the data science and analytics organization.
• Design upskilling
