Job summary

Life360 seeks a Senior Director to lead MAU Analytics and Data Science, directing a 60+ person team across analytics engineering, analytics/decision science, and data science/ML. You will own MAU metrics, models, and experiments, and collaborate with product, marketing, and engineering to shape the roadmap.

This AI-native role emphasizes building standards, coaching leaders, and delivering proactive insights; equity RSUs included, remote-first with US/Canada work.

Qualifications

• 10+ years in analytics, data science, or decision science, including 5+ years in people management in a senior leadership role.
• Deep expertise in inferential and causal analytics. Able to lead ML practitioners.

• Hands-on with coding agents (Claude Code or equivalent) in your own analytical work.
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent.

Responsibilities

• Lead and develop the decision scientists and data scientists on the team, and set the quality bar for both disciplines.
• Own the MAU driver model and the forecast.
• Own the exploratory work that drives the strategy to grow MAU.
• Establish how an analysis gets scoped, run, reviewed, and written up, so its quality does not depend on who picked up the request.
• Partner with your Revenue counterpart and Data Engineering leadership to define common metrics, align on experimentation standards, and introduce unified operating practices across teams.
• Build the operating model that gets the team into the roadmap conversation early, with a view on what to build and what to test.
• Use agents and automated analysis daily, and expect the same of the team.
• Shape how the team works AI-native: what gets delegated to agents, what gets automated, and what stays human judgment.
