Product Data Analyst

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in Germany.

📋 Description

• 🎯 Your mission: serve as the dedicated data partner that aids a hands-on product team in delving deeper, gaining broader insights, and designing superior products.

• 🤝 Function as the data partner for the PMs - Our PMs are capable of conducting their own analyses. You will be the counterpart who expands their work beyond the scope they can achieve in a sprint.

• Take on analyses they lack time for, expedite the ones they are performing, and collaborate on the most critical questions.

• Allow PMs to concentrate on product development by being the dedicated owner of the data work that underpins it.

• 🔭 Provide insights they cannot obtain independently - Cross-product insights, segment perspectives, comparative analyses across the user base — the external viewpoint that is challenging to achieve within a single squad.

• Challenge assumptions, including those PMs hold most dearly.

• Reveal analyses that were not requested but are essential for everyone.

• 🚀 Assist in designing and enhancing the product - Collaborate with PMs to formulate hypotheses and partner on how to effectively test them.

• **Activation and adoption are the focal points:** understanding how users derive value, what fosters sustained usage, identifying where we are losing users, and determining what to build to rectify it.

• Dive deeply into retention factors, cohort dynamics, and the leading indicators of expansion. Relate feature-level analyses to the overarching narrative.

• 🗣 Influence the product roadmap with a genuine point of view - Participate in product planning as an equal. Present strong, data-supported opinions on what we should develop next — and what should be avoided.

• Provide constructive pushback. Transform complex analyses into clear recommendations that drive decisions.

• 🧪 Elevate the standard of rigor - Introduce statistical depth where necessary and maintain simplicity where it is not.

• Ensure experiments and analyses are reliable — well-structured, appropriately powered, and honestly interpreted.

• Collaborate with PMs and Engineering on event instrumentation to ensure the data the team relies on is robust.

⛳️ Requirements

• 📊 Extensive product analytics experience: 5+ years analyzing product usage in B2B SaaS, preferably in a PLG environment.

• 🤝 Collaborative mindset: You excel at working alongside technical, hands-on PMs as a counterpart — enhancing their capabilities while being enhanced by them.

• 🚀 Expertise in activation & adoption: You have taken ownership of analyses related to onboarding funnels, time-to-value, feature adoption, and the behavioral indicators that differentiate stuck users from successful ones.

• 🔎 Depth over breadth: You are recognized for your ability to go beyond surface-level insights — focusing on behavioral segmentation, retention drivers, and accurately assessing feature impact.

• 🤓 Practical statistics: Not just "I took a stats class" — you can identify biased metrics, underpowered tests, or confounders, and articulate these issues clearly to a non-technical audience.

• 🧭 Assertive and proactive: You don’t wait for tasks to be assigned. You identify valuable analyses, conduct them, and present clear recommendations — even when not specifically requested by the team.

• 🧪 Strong experimentation skills: You can design and interpret A/B tests effectively. It is one of many tools in your arsenal.

• 🔧 Proficiency in instrumentation: You have defined event taxonomies and collaborated with engineering on tracking specifications.

• 💻 Technical expertise: Proficient in SQL; comfortable with modern technology stacks (BigQuery, dbt, Metabase or equivalent).

• 🗣️ Effective communication: You craft memos that PMs read thoroughly and present findings that influence decisions.
