Meet Fetch AI & Data
AI & Data at Fetch sit at the center of how we understand our business, make decisions, and build intelligent products. The organization operates as an integrated AI & data ecosystem, spanning multiple disciplines, including data engineering, analytics engineering, machine learning, experimentation, and data platforms, all working together to turn data into durable business and customer impact.
Teams operate in complex problem spaces where requirements evolve, tradeoffs are constant, and the right answer is rarely obvious. Success depends on strong technical judgment, comfort with ambiguity, and the ability to gather context and make informed decisions while balancing quality, performance, scalability, and responsible use.
Practitioners across this org contribute hands-on to production systems, analytical foundations, and intelligent features. You will collaborate closely with product, platform, and engineering partners, help shape standards and best practices, and ensure our AI and data capabilities scale reliably as Fetch grows.
You'll help Fetch run on rigorous performance standards and scalable self-service analytics. You'll help deliver our core company KPI framework, including its underlying model, while leading reusable, company-wide analytical frameworks and automation.
The work centers on trusted metrics: standardizing how impact is measured and connecting product and business drivers to outcomes like MAU, retention, ARPU, revenue, and margin. You'll establish governed self-service and agentic workflows that reduce bespoke work and improve decision speed while maintaining scientific quality.
You'll define core data science priorities across teams and set the KPI, measurement, and modeling standards others adopt. You'll shape leadership strategy, align Finance and Product on targets and trade-offs, and mentor scientists, partnering with cross-functional partners along the way.
