[Remote] Data Scientist, Mail

Remote · Ireland Full-time

Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Superhuman is hiring a Data Scientist for its Mail business unit. The role partners with product and cross-functional teams to guide strategy and roadmap decisions, define product metrics, design experiments, and measure the impact of AI features and growth initiatives.

Responsibilities

  • Be the embedded data science partner for the Mail core product team — shaping feature strategy, prioritization, and roadmap decisions with evidence, not just fielding ad hoc requests
  • Define and own the metrics that matter for Mail: activation milestones, engagement depth, retention curves, and the leading indicators that tell us whether a new feature is actually changing how people work in their inbox
  • Design and run experiments across the Mail product lifecycle — from onboarding and first-week activation to long-term habit formation — and build the measurement frameworks that separate signal from noise
  • Shape the measurement strategy for Mail's AI features — Auto Drafts, Auto Labels, Auto Archive, Calendar, MCP, and the agentic capabilities on the roadmap — by defining quality frameworks and behavioral metrics that show whether AI is making users genuinely faster and more effective
  • Figure out what makes Mail sticky: which features drive the deepest engagement, what the activation sequence looks like for users who become power users, and where in the funnel we're leaving value on the table
  • Partner with product-led and sales-led growth to identify and quantify the levers that turn individual users into team expansions — and surface the product signals that predict conversion and churn
  • Use data to craft remarkable product moments — turning behavioral insight into smarter onboarding flows, better feature discovery, and engagement nudges that feel natural rather than forced. This includes understanding how features such as Calendar scheduling and MCP-driven workflows change the way users interact with Mail on a day-to-day basis
  • Communicate findings clearly to PMs, designers, engineers, and executives — from experiment readouts to strategic deep-dives — and help raise the bar on how the Mail team makes decisions with data

Skills

  • You're fluent in Python and SQL, with strong data exploration and manipulation skills
  • You have strong applied statistics skills and machine learning skills, and you use them to drive product and growth decisions
  • You can translate ambiguous business questions into sound experimental designs, measurement plans, and metrics
  • You influence cross-functional partners and turn technical insight into action through clear communication, empathetic building, and openness to ideas from anywhere
  • You're a self-starting, creative problem-solver who distills problems to their core and thrives with ambiguity
  • You have a bachelor's degree in a quantitative field (statistics, mathematics, economics, computer science, data science, or a similar field)
  • Equivalent practical experience is preferred
  • You have experience working at a fast-growing startup, on AI-native consumer products, and/or in B2B/SaaS
  • You've been a strategic thought partner to product, growth, or business leaders, driving data-driven decisions
  • You've evaluated the quality of AI, LLM, or agentic products hands-on
  • You're comfortable using AI-assisted development tools like Claude Code or Codex to move faster, and you have the judgment to validate and supervise their output
  • You're familiar with experimentation platforms such as Statsig and modern data stacks such as Databricks
  • You have experience with product-led growth and/or lifecycle and marketing analytics
  • You've helped data science teams establish the methods, standards, and processes they use to collaborate
  • An advanced degree
