The posting

About Customer.io

Over 9,000 companies — from scrappy startups to global brands — use our platform to send billions of emails, push notifications, in-app messages, and SMS every day. Customer.io powers automated communication that people actually want to receive. We help teams send smarter, more relevant messages using real-time behavioral data.

About the role

Hi, my name is Michael, Head of Data & Analytics at Customer.io, and I'm looking for a Senior Data Scientist to help our teams make better decisions using customer and product data.

You'll partner closely with Product, Marketing, and Customer Experience to evaluate product changes, design and analyze experiments, identify opportunities to improve the customer experience, and influence roadmap and business priorities. This is a hands-on role focused on analyzing behavior, building models, and turning data into clear, actionable direction.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys solving ambiguous problems, working closely with stakeholders, and applying data science pragmatically to support product and business decisions. We're looking for someone with an ownership mindset and a bias for action who balances technical rigor with practical decision-making.

What we value

Ownership: You take initiative and drive analytical work from concept to implementation. You don't wait for perfect requirements — you help define the problem and move the work forward.

Curiosity: You naturally question assumptions and dig deeper into the "why" behind user behavior. You enjoy uncovering patterns in complex data and have the persistence to work through ambiguity and messy datasets.

Analytical Rigor: You bring a thoughtful, structured approach to analytics and decision-making. You know how to define meaningful measures of success, evaluate changes with rigor, and distinguish signal from noise in complex behavioral data so teams can act with confidence.

Communication: You can translate complex analytical concepts into clear recommendations for Product Managers, executives, and non-technical stakeholders.

Collaboration: You work as a true cross-functional partner, balancing analytical rigor with practical business needs. You build trust by making data approachable, actionable, and reliable.

What you'll do

  • Analyze behavioral patterns across the customer lifecycle to identify trends, usage archetypes, and opportunities to improve adoption, engagement, and retention.
  • Design experiments and measurement approaches to evaluate the impact of product and marketing changes - and help teams make decisions based on evidence rather than intuition.
  • Build models and datasets that improve how teams segment customers, forecast outcomes, and identify trends.
  • Apply machine learning and AI techniques where they solve practical problems, for both internal decision-making and customer-facing scenarios.
  • Partner with Data Engineering to improve the quality, reliability, and accessibility of core data and metrics.
  • Communicate findings clearly and directly so teams can make informed decisions without needing a statistics background.

What we're looking for

  • 5+ years of experience in a Data Science role within B2B SaaS or a similar product- or growth-focused environment.
  • Strong foundation in statistics, experimentation, and behavioral analytics - with the ability to apply them pragmatically to real product and business problems.
  • Proficiency in SQL and Python for large-scale analysis, modeling, and exploration.
  • Experience with modern cloud data platforms (Snowflake, BigQuery, or similar); familiarity with dbt is a plus.
  • Strong communication and stakeholder skills - you can explain complex analysis clearly to PMs, marketers, executives, and non-technical partners.
  • An ownership mindset - you help define the problem and move work forward; you don't wait for perfect requirements.

Why This Role

This role offers the opportunity to work on high-impact problems across the business while helping shape how data science and analytics evolve within the organization. You'll have the autonomy to explore meaningful questions, influence strategy, and help build a stronger data-informed culture.

Compensation & Benefits

We believe in transparency. Starting salary for this role is $140,000-$150,000 USD (or equivalent in local currency) depending on experience and subject to market rate adjustment. In addition to base salary, this role includes an equity grant in the form of stock options, so you share in the success you help build.

We know our people are what make us great, and we’re committed to taking great care of them. Our inclusive benefits package supports your well-being and growth, including 100% coverage of medical, dental, vision, mental health, and supplemental insurance premiums for you and your family. We also offer 16 weeks paid parental leave, unlimited PTO, stipends for remote work and wellness, a professional development budget, and more.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
