Principal Data Scientist, User Ecosystem

Reddit is a complex consumer ecosystem where users, content, communities, and conversations interact over time. We are looking for a very senior data science thought leader to shape how Reddit understands and improves that ecosystem for the user / consumer flywheel.

This role will define the measurement, modeling, and experimentation strategy for major Consumer questions: how users discover value, form habits, and deepen engagement; how we understand and serve user intent; how content and communities evolve; and how our systems create durable value for users, contributors, communities, and Reddit.

The ideal candidate will bring deep expertise in one or more areas of consumer science, such as:

• Recommender systems and information retrieval
• User modeling, personalization, lifecycle, LTV, or optimization
• Content, community, or ecosystem modeling
• Knowledge graphs and representations of users, content, and communities
• Causal inference, experimentation, and long-term consumer measurement

You will partner with leaders across Product, Engineering, Research, and Community to turn ambiguous consumer problems into clear scientific questions, durable analytical systems, and decisions that improve Reddit at scale.
