We’re experiencing rapid growth, have strong product-market fit, and are looking for the right people to help us scale. This is a rare chance to make a meaningful impact at a fast-moving, high-growth company. At Northbeam, you’ll join a team of driven, collaborative, and talented individuals who value personal growth and excellence. We’d love for you to be part of our journey.
We’re a remote-friendly company with offices in San Francisco and Los Angeles.
Northbeam’s Data Science organization serves as the intelligence layer of the company, owning the end-to-end science behind marketing measurement and optimization. This includes developing and advancing our core methodologies—Media Mix Modeling (MMM), Incrementality testing, causal multi-touch attribution (MTA), calibration and validation frameworks, and large-scale experimentation systems. The team is also responsible for AI-driven insights, recommendations, and the creation of reusable, scalable, and rigorously validated scientific systems that power Northbeam’s product and customer value.
The Director of Data Science leads the parallel execution of complex technical initiatives across the organization, ensuring excellence in delivery, scientific rigor, and cross-functional alignment. This role oversees the development and evolution of MMM, Incrementality, Insights, and Recommendation engines. In partnership with the VP of data science, the Director will help define and shape the organization for long-term scale—setting strategic priorities, designing team structure and operating practices, and guiding resource allocation to maximize impact.
This is a hands-on leadership role focused on executing the technical roadmap: guiding technical decisions, ensuring project delivery and accountability, and coaching and unblocking the team. You’ll partner closely with Engineering, Product and Design to shape technical design and product requirements, and collaborate with R&D leadership to build the team and systems that drive continuous innovation and measurement accuracy.
