Klaviyo operates a real-time data analytics platform coded primarily in Python that is built for massive scale and hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Data Scientists come to Klaviyo with experience in a variety of statistical methods and from a number of disciplines. 

 

The Experiments Platform team helps Klaviyo’s users design and run experiments and optimizations of engagement with their audience. We are a full stack engineering team, and we take rigor in our statistical methods and model explainability seriously. We provide the platform, guidance, analysis, and insights to extract every bit of potential learning from experiments. Our work is very collaborative within the wider engineering organization since our platform is built on top of many other core technologies at Klaviyo. 

 

As a Full Stack Data Scientist on the Experiments Platform Team, you can expect to be deeply involved in the technical discussions on how we build actionable experimentation features that enable users to learn about their audience. Full stack data scientists learn the software engineering skills they need to productionalize the data science features they help the team develop. For this role, prior software experience is not required, but a strong interest in learning it is a must. You will work alongside software engineers, product managers and designers to deliver an intuitive and robust experimentation suite for Klaivyo's users. You'll have ownership of projects that contribute to the team's mission, goals, and roadmap while collaborating alongside technical product owners and product managers.

How you'll have an impact:

  • Be the data science expert on a full stack engineering team
  • Build a platform that enables robust experimentation and optimization for users of all levels of statistical literacy
  • Test algorithms and techniques on large and small data sets - audience sizes on Klaviyo span approximately seven orders of magnitude
  • Enable testing at scale. More than 60k unique experiments are started via our platform each month
  • Fully own features from conception through rigorous experimentation to deployment
  • Work cross functionally with product, design, and engineering
  • Have ample opportunities for growth 

 

 

What we’re looking for:

  • Strong statistical background. Passion for experimental design and presentation of data 
  • 2+ years full time professional experience working in a data science or applied probability
  • Proficient in at least one modern programming language
  • Bachelor’s or advanced degree in computer science, applied math, statistics or other relevant quantitative discipline, or equivalent industry experience
  • Able to communicate well, work with others, learn continuously, and excited by difficult problems
  • Excited to learn engineering skills and contribute as both a data scientist and an engineer

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
  • Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
  • The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
  • Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
  • We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
  • We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
  • From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
  • We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
  • If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
  • EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
