Lead Product Data Scientist

Lead Data Scientist

As a Lead Data Scientist, you will spearhead the analytical strategy for Docusign's Intelligent Agreement Manager (IAM) and next-generation Agentic AI features. You will serve as the primary bridge between Product and Engineering, setting the vision for telemetry architecture, defining key performance metrics, and orchestrating analytical roadmaps. This role requires moving beyond reactive reporting to proactively shaping the 'test-and-learn' product lifecycle through advanced modeling, experimental design, and cross-functional leadership.

You work directly with stakeholders to turn data into a competitive advantage for our IAM and Agentic initiatives.

This position is an individual contributor role reporting to the Vice President, Operations & Analysis.

Responsibility

• Act as the subject matter expert, translating abstract business goals and abstract product goals into rigorous technical data requirements for Engineering stakeholders
• Partner with Global Data Analytics to oversee the evolution of scalable data pipelines and architectural integrity
• Define and govern the product telemetry strategy, partnering with Engineering to ensure high-fidelity data collection across the integrated IAM suite and Agentic workflows
• Identify patterns in cross-product usage cohorts and adoption signals, synthesizing these into roadmap recommendations for senior leadership and product managers
• Design rigorous experimentation frameworks that move beyond basic A/B testing to optimize complex, cross-product user journeys and LLM-based feature performance
• Oversee the development of automated dashboards and analytical tools that allow business users to independently interpret performance and drive adoption
• Serve as the primary analytical partner to Product, Engineering, and Research, identifying and prioritizing high-impact data opportunities that accelerate IAM and Agentic initiatives
• Communicate complex analytical findings and modeling frameworks to non-technical stakeholders, influencing strategy across functional lines
• Act with a sense of urgency to resolve analytical roadblocks and proactively solicit cross-functional input to ensure data initiatives meet business objectives
