ABOUT THIS ROLE
As an Associate Director of Analytics at Audible, you will drive the design,
implementation, and delivery of Analytics solutions in the paid media problem
space that will have a long-term impact on our business. You will deliver
solutions that address customer and business problems in the marketing space
(ROI measurement, experimentation, optimization, etc.) and directly impact the
goals of our Marketing organization. In addition, you will raise the bar on
already well-developed sets of analytic, economic, scientific, and financial

ABOUT YOU
You are proficient in SQL and Python with demonstrated experience delivering
products or prototypes end-to-end (from conception, to design, to specification,
to code, to test, to measurement, to presentation). You possess an in-depth
knowledge of relevant data sources, business intelligence technologies, data
science and analytical tools: you know what’s possible, in which direction to
steer, and how to move fast with solutions, adjustments, and recommendations.

You connect the dots and understand system inter-dependencies and limitations to
build efficient solutions. You can frame hypotheses, decisions, and assumptions
into a testable structure. You work fast, deliver reliably against your
commitments, and have a strong handle on processes that enable your success. You
have a business acumen that helps you speak fluently in your business partners’
language, helping them achieve or surpass their goals. You can break down
complexity and find innovative solutions to cross-functional problems. You are a
team player who is excited to collaborate with other analysts and scientists in
our broader organization.
