About The Position

AppLovin makes technologies that help businesses of every size connect to their ideal customers. The company provides end-to-end software and AI solutions for businesses to reach, monetize and grow their global audiences. AppLovin’s BizOps team is a small, high-impact group. This is a unique opportunity to join a fast paced, intellectually curious team that thrives on solving complex, unstructured problems. We are plugged into various parts of the organization from Product and Engineering to Creative Services and Business Development, and regularly collaborate with these teams and senior leadership to solve challenging business issues and work on high impact projects. We are looking for a highly quantitative self-starter who is energized by rapid change, comfortable with ambiguity, and motivated to make a direct and measurable impact. The ideal candidate is curious with an analytical mindset and natural problem-solving instincts that enable them to uncover insights, identify growth opportunities, and surface potential challenges. They can structure complex problems independently and combine creativity with analytical rigor to move the team and business forward. This role requires in-person presence in our Toronto office. The role involves applying data-driven problem solving to help scale some of the world’s largest consumer apps against key KPIs. It requires identifying growth opportunities and translating insights into clear execution plans that drive measurable business impact. The role operates at both the micro and macro level, identifying trends, challenges, and untapped growth opportunities across the organization. It involves diving into large, complex datasets using tools such as SQL, LLMs, Python etc. to break down ambiguous problems and uncover insights and root causes. The role transforms raw data into clear, actionable recommendations that drive strategy and unlock growth opportunities. It also involves owning and executing high impact projects that improve operational efficiency and unlock new revenue streams, partnering closely with Business Development teams to roll out scalable, repeatable solutions that deliver measurable results. Additionally, the role includes designing and implementing alerting systems, processes, dashboards and frameworks that proactively identify issues, triage widespread problems, and surface opportunities before they become obvious. Collaboration with Senior Executives, Product, Engineering and Creative Services teams is key to test features, validate new tools, and shape high impact initiatives, as well as identifying systemic gaps, escalating critical issues, and helping inform the development of new products and capabilities.
