About The Position

Launch Potato is seeking a Lead BI Manager to own the reporting infrastructure that powers decision-making across their Credit Cards, Make Money/Manage Money, Banking, and Marketplace verticals. This role offers a clear growth path into becoming a proactive analytical partner who helps the team anticipate future needs. The successful candidate will be embedded with the business from day one, collaborating closely with Yield, Paid Media, and Account Management teams. The focus is on uncovering meaningful trends, conducting retrospective analyses across experiments, creatives, offers, seasonality, and CAC performance, and challenging the team with novel insights.
