Business Data Scientist, Platform Journey Analytics and Measurement

Google's leadership team hand-picks thorny business challenges, and members of BizOps work in small teams to find solutions. As part of this team you fully immerse yourself in data collection, draw insight from analysis, and then zoom out to develop compelling, synthesized recommendations. Taking strategy one step further, you also persuasively communicate your recommendations to senior-level executives, roll-up your sleeves to help drive implementation and check back-in to see the impact of your recommendations.

Our team helps the business make informed decisions by performing rigorous analysis, generating objective insights, and aligning stakeholders to facts. We provide a variety of services, from basic performance insights to strategic initiative support and critical business infrastructure.

Our goal is to power the business to run itself. We are evolving from a team that reports on the past into the architects of a proactive, self-optimizing support ecosystem. We are building an engine that proactively diagnoses friction, anticipates changes in advertiser needs, and enables orchestrated improvements across the support journey.

Our strategy focuses on three core pillars. Creating a trusted, unified data architecture and a clear framework for measuring success. Shifting from reactive analysis to strategic consulting, proactively identifying and prioritizing critical business opportunities. Designing closed-loop systems that diagnose issues, trigger automated solution workflows, and validate their impact.

This transformation ensures problems are solved before they escalate. For our customers, this means a seamless experience. For the business, it drives unprecedented operational velocity. And for our team, it means evolving into the architects of an autonomous future.
