Top Reasons to Apply

• Massive White Space & High Visibility: Over the past year, Realtor.com has successfully stood up a brand-new Pricing Organization. We've built the data foundation; now, we are in Phase 2-hardening the function and scaling it out. If you love being in the spotlight and want a massive say in shaping a critical business function from the ground up, this is your stage.

• Highly Valued Executive Investment: This team isn't tucked away in a back room-it is one of the most heavily backed, highly valued investment areas within the company. You will have a front-row seat to a significant roadmap of strategic initiatives, giving your work direct, measurable airtime with executive leadership.

• Move Beyond the Dashboards: We aren't looking for someone to maintain Power BI dashboards or pull passive data tickets. We already have talented data scientists and analysts. We need a commercially minded strategist who can look at pricing mechanics, understand market dynamics, and drive actual revenue strategy.

• Lead Intelligence Strategy & Support: Act as the primary analytical partner for the Lead Intelligence initiative, helping to define and align lead inventory allocation and optimization across all geographies.
• Advanced Forecasting & Modeling: Evolve and improve sophisticated forecasting models for lead delivery and sales pipeline. You will perform scenario analysis to maximize outcomes while optimizing the consumer and client experience.
• Inventory & Yield Optimization: Conduct deep-dive analyses to identify and prioritize high-value leads by geography and intent signal. Use these insights to recommend rules-based allocation strategies that optimize yield.
• Impact Simulation: Simulate and report on the knock-on effects of changes to product eligibility and allocation rules across various business units.
• KPI Development & Monitoring: Track and forecast lead delivery for operational planning, building new KPIs to measure the success of lead outcomes and revenue optimization.
• Cross-Functional Partnership: Collaborate with Product, Tech, Pricing, and Client Engineering teams to ensure the standardized implementation of rules across the RDC ecosystem.

• Education & Experience: Bachelor's Degree in Business Analytics, Math, Economics, or a related field, with 5+ years of experience analyzing data to answer critical business questions. Master's Degree with 3+ years of experience or PhD also eligible.
• Technical Mastery: Advanced knowledge of SQL is required. Proficiency in Python or R is a plus for building sophisticated optimization models.
• Data Visualization: Experience with tools like Tableau, Shiny, or Streamlit to create impactful data stories for executive stakeholders.
• Analytical Rigor: Strong understanding of experimentation and statistics (e.g., hypothesis testing, regression analysis, and statistical modeling) to analyze lead and feature-level performance. Experience with modeling and simulation capabilities preferred.
• Cloud Platforms: Experience working within cloud-based environments such as AWS and Snowflake.
• Strategic Thinking: Ability to handle operational complexity and move from "what" the data says to "why" it is moving, enabling data-driven decisioning for the entire organization.
• Agility: Comfort working in a highly agile, intensely iterative environment where you must manage multiple priorities and ambiguous concepts.
