About Pinterest:
Millions of people across the world come to Pinterest to find new ideas every day. It’s where they get inspiration, dream about new possibilities and plan for what matters most. Our mission is to help those people find their inspiration and create a life they love. In your role, you’ll be challenged to take on work that upholds this mission and pushes Pinterest forward. You’ll grow as a person and leader in your field, all the while helping Pinners make their lives better in the positive corner of the internet.
Creating a life you love also means finding a career that celebrates the unique perspectives and experiences that you bring. As you read through the expectations of the position, consider how your skills and experiences may complement the responsibilities of the role. We encourage you to think through your relevant and transferable skills from prior experiences.
Our new progressive work model is called PinFlex, a term that’s uniquely Pinterest to describe our flexible approach to living and working. Visit our PinFlex landing page to learn more.

The successful candidate will play a key role in improving our experiment processes at scale, leveraging their expertise to drive innovation and help make sure that Pinterest users are receiving the most thoroughly data-driven features. With thousands of experiments running concurrently, the magnitude of our operations presents a significant opportunity for impact. If you possess a strategic mindset, proven experience in experimental design and analysis, and a passion for driving results, we invite you to join us in shaping the future of experimentation.
