Role Overview

The Product Analytics Lead is a high-impact role responsible for shaping product strategy and improving

customer and business outcomes through data. This individual will serve as a dedicated analytics partner to product and executive leadership, bringing structure, rigor, and clarity to complex product decisions.

The role translates product vision and customer needs into measurable goals, analytical roadmaps,

experiments, and actionable recommendations. It connects insights across the product lifecycle, from

opportunity discovery and prioritization through launch, adoption, engagement, and ongoing optimization.

What Youll Do:

Product Strategy and Opportunity Framing

• Translate product vision, customer needs, and ambiguous business questions into clear problem

statements, hypotheses, and measurable outcomes.

• Partner with product leaders and cross-functional stakeholders to identify customer pain points, size

opportunities, refine scope, and prioritize the product roadmap.

• Define product success measures, including north-star metrics, input metrics, guardrails, and decision

criteria.

Product Analytics and Insight Generation

• Lead end-to-end product analysis across discovery, development, launch, adoption, engagement,

retention, and value realization.

• Integrate product behavioral data with customer, operational, financial, and market data to create a holistic view of product performance.
• Build segmentation, funnel, cohort, journey, and driver analyses that reveal friction points and opportunities for improvement.
• Apply iterative analytical approaches to test hypotheses, deepen customer understanding, and refine

product recommendations.

Experimentation and Product Optimization

• Partner with product, design, and engineering teams to design experiments and establish sound

measurement plans before launch.

• Evaluate feature and experience changes using A/B testing, quasi-experimental methods, and other

appropriate techniques.

• Turn experiment results and post-launch performance into clear recommendations for scaling, iterating, or

retiring product capabilities.

• Create rapid learning loops that help teams make evidence-based trade-offs and continuously improve the

customer experience.

Product Measurement and Data Foundations

• Own the product measurement framework and ensure metrics are clearly defined, consistently interpreted,

and tied to customer and business value.

• Partner with engineering and data teams to improve event instrumentation, data quality, semantic

consistency, and analytical usability.

• Develop scalable dashboards and self-service decision tools while reserving deep-dive analysis for the

highest-value product questions.

• Promote responsible use of data, including appropriate governance, privacy, and controls throughout the

product lifecycle.

Executive and Product Communication

• Synthesize findings into concise, decision-oriented narratives for product and senior leadership.
• Translate complex analysis into product implications, customer impact, risks, trade-offs, and

recommended actions.

• Facilitate product reviews, roadmap discussions, and working sessions with clear evidence and a strong

point of view.

Ways of Working

• Customer-centered: starts with customer needs, behaviors, and outcomes.
• Product-minded: balances desirability, viability, feasibility, and risk when framing recommendations.
• Highly iterative: develops insights through cycles of discovery, experimentation, measurement, and

refinement.

• Cross-functional: collaborates closely with product management, design, engineering, data, analytics,

operations, and business stakeholders.

• Outcome-oriented: focuses on measurable product and customer impact rather than analysis or feature

delivery alone.

• Agile and responsive: supports planned roadmap priorities and emerging product decisions.

What Youll Bring:

• 6-10+ years in product analytics, product management, data science, strategy, consulting, or a related field.
• Experience influencing product strategy and roadmap decisions through customer insight, analytics, and

experimentation.

• Experience working on complex, ambiguous product problems with senior stakeholders and cross

functional teams.

• Background in financial services, insurance, or another regulated industry is preferred.
• Strong understanding of product discovery, product development, lifecycle measurement, and outcome

based prioritization.

• Advanced analytical toolkit, including SQL, Python or R, experimentation, statistics, and data visualization.
• Experience with product analytics methods such as funnels, cohorts, segmentation, retention, journey

analysis, and causal inference.

• Experience working with large, complex, and fragmented datasets, including product instrumentation and

event-level data.

• Ability to structure and execute end-to-end analyses independently, from question framing through

recommendation and impact measurement.

• Exceptional executive communication, product storytelling, and decision-framing skills.
• Strong stakeholder management and the ability to influence product and senior leaders without direct

authority.

• Ability to balance multiple priorities, make pragmatic trade-offs, and operate effectively in a fast-paced

environment.

• A collaborative leadership style that raises the analytical and product decision-making capabilities of the

broader team.
