Who we're looking for
We're looking for a Director of Product Analytics to directly influence how Rover makes decisions about our product experience, marketplace health, and company strategy. This person will lead our Product Analytics team and serve as a senior partner to Product and company leaders, bringing clear thinking and strong judgment to some of Rover's most important questions.
We need a leader who can set direction, manage managers, influence senior stakeholders, and still enjoy diving deep when the work calls for it. The right person will raise the bar for how the team frames problems, evaluates evidence, and turns analysis into decisions.
You will bring strong product instincts, practical marketplace judgment, and the credibility to influence company decisions beyond the product roadmap. You will help turn customer behavior, marketplace dynamics, and product performance into clear choices for the business, then build the team, rituals, and standards that make that happen consistently.
This is a hybrid position that has the minimum expectation to work out of our Barcelona Office in the Poblenou neighborhood two days per week (Mondays and Thursdays). For this reason, candidates must be based in Barcelona or willing to relocate.
