ABOUT THIS ROLE
As an Associate Director of Analytics at Audible, you will drive the design, implementation, and delivery of Analytics solutions in the paid media problem space that will have a long-term impact on our business. You will deliver solutions that address customer and business problems in the paid media space (ROI measurement, experimentation, optimization, etc.) and directly impact the goals of our Marketing organization. In addition, you will raise the bar on already well-developed sets of analytic, economic, scientific and financial frameworks that drive decisions across multiple marketing channels and product surfaces. With a “consulting mindset”, you will influence the organization towards adopting new approaches, concepts, and paradigms.

ABOUT YOU
You are a “doer”, someone that can code at a very good level in SQL and Python, and deliver products or prototypes end-to-end (from conception, to design, to specification, to code, to test, to measurement, to presentation). You possess an in-depth knowledge of relevant data sources, business intelligence technologies, data science and analytical tools: you know what’s possible, in which direction to steer, and how to move fast with solutions, adjustments and recommendations. You connect the dots and understand system inter-dependencies and limitations to build efficient solutions. You can frame hypotheses, decisions, and assumptions into a testable structure. You work fast, deliver reliably against your commitments, and have a strong handle on processes that enable your success. You have an business acumen that helps you speak fluently in your business partners’ language, and helps them achieve or surpass their goals. You are able to break down complexity and find innovative solutions to cross-functional problems.
