Summary（岗位介绍）
We are looking for a seasoned Data Science executive who can navigate the technical complexity of the space and the solutions while also managing and supporting a broad and diverse range of stakeholders. This leader will have a strong product sense, technical and communication skills. Direct experience shipping developer platforms or technical products is highly preferred. You will partner with cross-functional stakeholders (Product, Engineering, Content, Programming, Design) to tackle challenging analytical, statistical, and experimentation problems. The insights that you derive will guide crucial strategic decisions about the future of core technical capabilities for AR/VR products at Meta.
The Data Science team’s mission is to leverage data to understand, identify, and execute, accelerating the journey toward building a novel, powerful, and useful technical capabilities and SDKs for Meta. Projects our DS work on range from broad user and ecosystem understanding, strategic planning and product goal setting, as well as diving deep on specific applications or the engagement of our users. There are product areas, like Facebook, Instagram, AR and VR, where the capabilities of XR Tech are already shipped and we’re continuing to build on that, while there are many other areas like new HW products that are still early in the product development phase.
This team is focused on helping the product team scope out new opportunities, define success across the overall product ecosystem and each product area individually, as well as understand how the presence platform can contribute to our mission to increase meaningful connections. This leader will drive the DS team into more experimentation with broad hypothesis areas and determine how we are going to test and then push DS into product development. Given the phase of the products, there’s a lot of testing and pivoting and product re-scoping as we find the right path and product features.
