This role is deeply business-facing. You’ll work side-by-side with stakeholders to define problems, design analytical approaches, and guide decisions through data.

Design and Deliver Data-Driven Solutions –
Apply statistical analysis and machine learning to develop solutions that address business needs, then present findings, influence decisions, and gain alignment on adoption.
Lead Experimentation and Optimization –
Develop and manage testing frameworks (A/B testing, campaign experimentation) across channels and markets. Analyze results and provide clear recommendations to improve performance and inform future strategy.
Translate Results into Business Impact –
Clearly communicate insights and quantify outcomes (e.g., campaign performance lift, engagement improvements, ROI) to ensure stakeholders understand the value and take action.
Partner to Operationalize Solutions –
Collaborate with Technology and Engineering teams to transition validated models into production, supporting implementation through scalable pipelines and processes.
Influence Through Storytelling –
Present insights and recommendations to both technical and non-technical audiences, including senior stakeholders, to drive alignment and decision-making.
This isn’t just about ticking off tasks on a list. It's about making a significant, positive change in BECU’s journey, where your contributions are valued, and your growth is continually fostered.
