Intelligence Research

Competitive Intelligence Research Responsibilities

• Market Strategy:
  Influence organization‑level product direction through data‑driven narratives and an in‑depth understanding of the market landscape. Demonstrated experience operating at scale, across ambiguous environments with working knowledge of econometrics. As a quantitative market‑strategist, blend practical and applied understanding with technical expertise, including pressure‑testing data for quality, reliability, understanding data biases, and being solution‑driven.
• Analytics Leadership:
  Conduct advanced analyses with 3P datasets, develop statistical models and forecasts, and deliver actionable insights that inform market and business strategy. Specific activities include:
  • Data onboarding:
    Identify, onboard, and rigorously evaluate 3P datasets to determine their signal‑to‑noise ratio and predictive power.
  • Data triangulation:
    Triangulate data from many sources of imperfect information. Synthesize multiple, low‑fidelity 3rd‑party signals into a single high‑fidelity trend report using Bayesian aggregation or other methods.
  • Data transformation:
    Apply quasi‑experimental designs (e.g., synthetic control, diff‑in‑diff) to isolate the impact of exogenous market shocks and competitor actions on internal performance metrics.
  • Insight and implications:
    Apply guidance from such analyses to increase the accuracy of forecasts and better understand market trends.
• Technical & Methodological Expertise:
  Act as a recognized professional in a technical or methodological area (e.g., causal inference, Bayesian aggregation), driving the adoption of advanced methods and organization‑wide best practices.
• Data Governance & Quality:
  Ensure data privacy, security and compliance with organizational standards. Champion data quality frameworks and documentation practices that enable credible reproducible analyses.
• Resourceful and adaptable professional with a bias for action.

• Bachelor’s degree and a minimum of 6 years of work experience (minimum 4 years with a Ph.D.) in business intelligence, product analytics or economic or strategy consulting in a technology environment.
• Demonstrated skill to ethically source, validate and synthesize high‑signal insights from stakeholder interviews, skilled conversations, field research and relationship‑based information gathering while maintaining high standards for privacy, consent and integrity.
• Proficiency in AI‑powered tools:
  Demonstrate working knowledge of Generative AI technologies and experience designing, prompting and orchestrating AI systems to automate data analyses, synthesize insights and execute multi‑step analytical tasks.
• Practical working understanding of data‑analytics tools and direct experience managing, analyzing, manipulating and interpreting 1P and external 3P datasets.
• Experience with data querying languages (SQL), scripting languages (Python) and/or statistical/mathematical software (R).
• Proven experience with statistical analysis including causal inference, quasi‑experiment or Bayesian aggregation.
• Demonstrated communication skills and experience presenting complex findings to both technical and non‑technical stakeholders.
• Demonstrated experience thriving in ambiguous environments and shaping new analytics organizations or products.

• Master’s or Ph.D. in a quantitative field such as Quantitative Economics, Political Science, Operations Research, Data Science, Computer Science, Physics, Business or Mathematics.
• Demonstrated ability to integrate AI tools to optimize/redesign workflows and drive measurable impact.
• Experience adhering to and implementing responsible, ethical AI practices.
• Demonstrated ongoing AI skill development and staying current with emerging AI technologies.
