Grammarly team members who will be collaborating at our San Francisco hub must be based in the United States.

The opportunity

Grammarly empowers people to thrive and connect, whenever and wherever they communicate. More than 30 million people and 30,000 teams around the world use our AI-powered writing assistant every day. All of this begins with our team collaborating in a values-driven and learning-oriented environment.

We’re looking for a Data Scientist to help us drive decision-making, find bigger opportunities, and improve our product. As a consumer internet company, we produce huge amounts of data, and in this role, you will have outsize opportunities to develop the insights to make it actionable. You will have broad impact and exposure across Grammarly, working with team members from our Product, Research, Marketing, Engineering, and Finance teams. 

Grammarly’s engineers and researchers have the freedom to innovate and uncover breakthroughs—and, in turn, influence our product roadmap. The complexity of our technical challenges is growing rapidly as we scale our interfaces, algorithms, and infrastructure. Read more about our stack or hear from our team on our technical blog.

Your impact

As a Data Scientist at Grammarly, you will help our team make better decisions by advocating for data-driven approaches across the organization. Your analysis will contribute to our strategy across the business in areas such as user acquisition, engagement, retention, and more. 

• Within your first month, you will start developing a good understanding of the overall data-processing pipeline, understand a subset of Grammarly’s key metrics, and complete at least two small data reports to present to relevant business owners.
• By month three, you will become an expert user of our analytical tools, start contributing to the Data Science team’s projects, understand all of Grammarly’s key metrics, and independently work on small-to-medium-complexity data projects (including A/B tests, channel analysis, and user engagement).
• By month six, you will start working independently on complex data projects, such as user segmentation, short- and long-term user-engagement analysis, and lifetime value projections.
• By year one, you will become the go-to person and subject-matter expert for a few of Grammarly’s key metrics, own and drive projects independently with minimal supervision, and along with our other Data Scientists, ensure “data science excellence” at Grammarly (dashboards, high-quality reports, empowered teams, etc.).
