Head of Data and Analytics

Does the thought of working with and around Lamborghinis, Bentleys, or Teslas excite you? If so, then Motorenn may be the right startup for you.

Motorenn’s founding team consists of a former automotive industry executive as CEO, a former Honda racing team engineer as COO, a former Uber and Facebook developer as CTO. We also recently filled the roles for Head of Strategy and Business Operations. Motorenn is currently post MVP, generating revenue, and on path to target a professional funding round this summer. We are now looking for a motivated statistician / data scientist who wants to tackle the nebulous challenges of an early stage high end automotive ecommerce startup to help us take some of our data driven capability goals to the next level.

There are three main focuses for this role::

  1. Vehicle pricing analysis – We have collected over 3 GB of scraped data and continue to expand gathered data sets with the end goal of having an extremely comprehensive understanding of the spot automotive retail marketplace. With that, we can then perform analysis to better understand the true value of the vehicles that we target buying and selling.
  2. Business data analysis – Also important, but secondary to the vehicle pricing analysis is managing the analysis (and the teams that perform this work) about our core business performance – marketing, web, sales, etc.
  3. Data management – And with all of that, there will be a need to actually manage the data. Our CTO is currently handling that function, but in the future, this responsibility may lie with the Data and Analytics team.

That is a lot to handle, but the ideal candidate can pragmatically understand the problem at hand and work with the team to get the job done.

Preferred Requirements

  • 3+ years of professional experience with a combination of experience in data warehousing, scraper development, and statistical analysis
  • BS/BA/MS in mathematics, statistics, or data science
  • Experience with R and Python

Salary

Compensation will be a combination of cash and equity. Equity will consist of a 2% total stake in the company in the form of RSAs. 4 year vesting with a 1 year cliff.

Part-time equity based arrangement possible.

Must be located in the Los Angeles metro area or willing to relocate post funding. If interested, please send your resume to david@motorenn.com.
