A transformation in how we operate Own the strategic direction for how Yahoo Home & News uses data, establishing a clear point of view and roadmap that raises the ceiling on what analytics can do for the business. You’ll help us find the short-term signals that predict long-term growth, building the models, frameworks, and habits that allow the business to move with both speed and conviction. That includes expanding our data science and product analytics capabilities, and partnering with Engineering to strengthen data infrastructure and ensure the team has the foundation to move fast and with confidence.
A deeper partnership with the business Embed your team in squad planning cycles, quarterly reviews, and executive conversations. Represent the analytics function as a thought partner to leaders across Product, Editorial, Engineering, Revenue, and Business Development.
Responsible AI transformation Identify where AI can fundamentally change how the analytics team plans, creates, and delivers work, and build toward it. This means embedding AI into how the team operates: automating routine reporting, using AI-assisted trend surfacing, and exploring natural language querying tools.
A culture of insight and craft Raise the bar on how insights are packaged and delivered. Coach the team on data storytelling, visualization, and stakeholder management so that great analysis doesn’t get lost in translation.
A foundation of trust Accurate, reliable data is non-negotiable. You’ll establish the QA processes and infrastructure improvements that make “I trust this number” the default assumption across the organization.
