The SAFE Insights team supports the five studios that make up the SAFE Alliance: User Platform, User Fraud, IT, Security, and PACE (Procurement, Analytics, and Cost Engineering). We help these studios understand their impact by defining and building performance metrics, running experiments, and delivering analyses that guide decision-making.

  • Explore complex datasets to identify patterns, trends, and opportunities that help SAFE studios understand their impact.
  • Scope, prioritize, and execute projects including A/B tests and other experimentation approaches.
  • Apply statistical and causal inference methods to evaluate product changes for internal and external users.
  • Create compelling data stories through visualizations and reporting that influence decision-making across the Alliance.
  • Grow into a strategic analytical partner by taking on increasingly complex data challenges.

  • You care about building reliable metrics and helping teams make informed decisions using trustworthy data.
  • You have experience collaborating with engineers, product managers, and cross-functional partners.
  • You are curious, adaptable, and excited to grow your craft over time.
