The platform helps large and mid-sized companies unify and activate customer data to drive revenue through personalized, data-driven marketing.
This is not another dashboard tool. It’s an expert system designed to move CMOs from business goals → insights → actions → measurable growth.

Responsibilities

Build backlog based on customer + CSM feedback, not assumptions.
2. Quality gate for analytics (non-negotiable)

3. Analytics consulting → productization loop
Runs customer deep-dives (discovery / JTBD).
Personally explores customer data to diagnose problems and recommend actions.
Transforms one-off consulting insights into scalable product capabilities:
repeatable workflows, templates, automated recommendations, and UI patterns.
4. Vision → execution
Adopts the existing product vision and makes it their own.
Breaks strategy into actionable increments.
Communicates priorities clearly and aligns them with company-level goals.
5. Team leadership
Provides clear product direction to engineering and design.
Mentors product talent.
Contributes to hiring and performance management.
What We Expect From You
Proven experience launching a successful B2B analytics product with paying customers.
Strong hands-on data skills:
Comfortable working directly in SQL
Confident in Excel / Google Sheets
Deep understanding of attribution, experimentation, and validation
Able to personally dig into data to validate hypotheses and identify issues.
Uses GPT / AI assistants to accelerate analysis — not as a substitute for understanding.
Consulting mindset: able to sit with a client, break down metrics, identify root causes, and propose an action plan.
Comfortable making product decisions under uncertainty via prototyping and rapid feedback.
Strong argumentation skills — able to overcome resistance across people and processes.
High standards for analytics UX and methodology.
Russian at professional or native level.
Nice to Have
Experience in CRM marketing / MarTech.
Experience building AI-driven data products.
What We Offer
Ambitious vision: an expert system from goals to actions — not another BI tool.
AI embedded into the product core.
Direct impact on customer revenue and business results.
Transparent culture (open finances and salaries).
High autonomy and strong feedback loops with customers.
Remote-first — no mandatory office attendance.
Preferred: ability to travel for onboarding (~2 weeks; travel co-funded).
