About the job

At Google, data drives all of our decision-making. Quantitative Analysts work all across the organization to help shape Google's business and technical strategies by processing, analyzing and interpreting huge data sets. Using analytical excellence and statistical methods, you mine through data to identify opportunities for Google and our clients to operate more efficiently, from enhancing advertising efficacy to network infrastructure optimization to studying user behavior. As an analyst, you do more than just crunch the numbers. You work with Engineers, Product Managers, Sales Associates and Marketing teams to adjust Google's practices according to your findings. Identifying the problem is only half the job; you also figure out the solution.

With your leadership and professional expertise, you manage a team of analysts, plan project goals and lead the overall strategy for your group. You are a recognized authority in your functional area and develop, organize and launch projects that span engineering and analysis.

As a Technical Lead, you will bring a strategic leadership lens to the role of data science in driving better advertising. You will work closely with Engineers, Product Managers, Sales Associates, and Marketing teams to adjust Google's strategies and practices according to findings. You will empower the team to develop, evaluate, and improve the entire range of Google's advertising products including Search, Display, Apps, TV, and YouTube.
