About the Opportunity
We are looking for a Senior Data Scientist, Growth Analytics, to join our data science team at OKX. Growth is the core mandate of this role — you will own analytics that power how we acquire, activate, and retain users across global markets.
You will serve as the analytical backbone for our growth function: measuring channel performance, evaluating the impact of campaigns and promotions, and identifying the levers that move our most important metrics. Beyond analysis, you will design and build AI-powered analytics tools and systems that enable the team to generate insights faster and at greater scale.
What You’ll Be Doing
Growth Channel Analytics
- Own end-to-end measurement of acquisition channels — paid media, referral, affiliate, and organic — tracking performance, efficiency, and ROI; partner with channel owners to surface actionable signals in near real-time.
- Build channel attribution monitoring and incrementality frameworks to distinguish true causal impact from correlation.
Growth Campaign & Promotion Analytics
-
Lead analytics for growth campaigns, incentive programs, and promotional events — from pre-launch sizing to post-launch readouts.
-
Develop incrementality measurement methodologies (holdout tests, synthetic control, difference-in-differences) and build reusable frameworks that reduce time-to-insight for recurring programs.
User Lifecycle & Retention Analytics
-
Partner with growth teams to measure activation, engagement, and monetization across the full lifecycle; build cohort analyses, retention models, and segmentation frameworks to identify high-value segments and growth levers.
Experimentation
-
Design and execute A/B tests; ensure statistical rigor and deliver clear, actionable readouts to growth and product stakeholders.
AI-Powered Analytics Tools & Systems
-
Design and build AI-based analytics tools, agents, and automated insight systems — LLM query interfaces, anomaly detection pipelines, and self-serve tooling that democratizes data access across growth and product teams.
-
Apply expertise in LLMs, RAG, and agentic workflows to solve real analytical problems at scale; stay current with AI developments and continuously bring new capabilities into the team’s workflow.
Stakeholder Partnership
-
Serve as the primary analytical partner to growth leads and PMs — translating complex analyses into clear, actionable narratives for both technical and non-technical audiences.
What We Look For In You
Education & Experience
- Master's degree in Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics, Economics, or a related quantitative field.
- 5+ years in data science or growth analytics (fintech/crypto preferred), with a demonstrated track record of moving metrics — not just reporting them.
Growth Analytics Expertise
- Deep experience across the growth analytics stack — channel performance, campaign incrementality, acquisition funnel, cohort retention, and lifecycle segmentation — with strong intuition for what’s working and why.
- Familiarity with paid acquisition channels, referral and affiliate programs, and promotional mechanics — and how to measure their true impact.
AI Engineering Capability
- Proven experience building AI-powered analytics tools or systems — not just using AI assistants, but designing and deploying them (e.g. LLM-based query tools, automated insight pipelines, AI agents for data workflows).
- Strong Python; hands-on with LLM APIs, prompt engineering, RAG, and agentic frameworks; able to rapidly evaluate and integrate new AI tooling into production workflows.
Technical Skills
- Expert-level SQL; proficiency in Python for analysis, modeling, and automation.
- Hands-on experience designing and analyzing A/B experiments; solid understanding of statistical inference and experimentation best practices.
- Experience building dashboards, self-serve data tools, and automated pipelines; familiarity with predictive modeling, user segmentation, and cohort analysis.
Industry Knowledge
- Experience in the crypto industry or crypto trading is required. Candidates should have hands-on knowledge of CEX/DEX dynamics, token economics, or crypto user behavior and be able to apply this understanding to shape product and growth strategies.
Growth Mindset
- Experience working directly with growth leads and product managers in a fast-moving, agile environment.
- Comfortable defining metrics from scratch and building analytical frameworks in ambiguous, high-growth contexts.
Communication
-
Strong data storytelling and stakeholder communication skills — able to distill complex analyses into actionable narratives and influence decisions at the senior level.
Nice to Haves
-
Experience designing for Fintech, Investment platforms, or Crypto products
-
Experience working with teams across offices and timezones
-
Understanding of React framework for Front End development
-
Facilitated design thinking workshops or design sprints with peers, stakeholders, and leadership
