About the role

As the Senior Manager, Global Engagement Strategy and Analytics, you will help shape the strategy of how we grow and deepen engagement with our streaming platform using data.

You will sit at the intersection of data, strategy, product, content, and consumer behavior. You will go beyond reporting to investigate what happened, why it happened, what we should do about it, and where we should invest to drive meaningful improvements in engagement. You will analyze consumer behavior to develop insights and strategies that help users discover more relevant content, establish strong viewing habits, and ultimately improve retention.

This role is ideal for someone with a strategy/analytics background or prior experience in marketing/growth analytics for digital platforms, combining structured thinking with creative execution, and having a deep understanding of market and regional dynamics, marketing channels and attribution, and content-driven consumer platforms.

Core Areas of Responsibility

Develop overall engagement strategies by:

  • Analyzing the end-to-end streaming journey, from app entry and content discovery through content start, viewing, completion, and return behavior.
  • Identifying engagement barriers and opportunities across different audience segments.
  • Analyze and measure the impact of lifecycle interventions on engagement and churn.
  • Understand the differences between high, medium, and low engagement users and determine what drives movement between those cohorts.
  • Analyze drivers of frequency, recency, session depth, content discovery, and habitual usage.
  • Identify early behavioral signals that indicate declining engagement or potential churn. 

Audience and Segmentation Strategy 

  • Develop actionable behavioral segments based on viewing patterns, engagement levels, content preferences, tenure, and lifecycle stage. 
  • Identify opportunities to move users from casual → engaged → habitual → highly engaged.
  • Determine which strategies work best for different audience cohorts rather than optimizing solely for platform level averages.

Measurement and Experimentation

  • Establish measurement frameworks for major engagement initiatives.
  • Define success metrics, leading indicators, guardrails, and analytical methodologies. 
  • Partner with product and data science to design and evaluate A/B tests and experimentation programs.
  • Distinguish correlation from causation and determine which interventions are genuinely driving incremental engagement.
  • Develop frameworks for measuring short term lifts and longer term habit formation.
About You

We get excited about candidates, like you, because...

  • 8+ years of experience in analytics, strategy, data science, consumer insights, product analytics, or related field, with experience leading analytical work.
  • Deep understanding of consumer behavior and engagement metrics.
  • Expert-level SQL skills required.
  • Intermediate-level Python skills required.
  • Strong analytical skills, experience with statistical analytics, and experimentation.
  • Experience developing measurement frameworks and evaluating A/B tests. 
  • Proven experience designing robust measurement frameworks and using A/B testing to evaluate initiatives, quantify incremental impact, and inform data-driven product and growth decisions.
  • Experience building compelling and actionable presentations directed at an executive-level audience.
  • Experience building AI-enabled workflows.
  • Experience working in a globally matrixed organization.
  • Experience in streaming, subscription business, media, entertainment, digital products, e-commerce, or other consumer technology environments strongly preferred.
  • MBA or advanced degree, or equivalent experience in analytics or strategy, is required. 

In the role of Senior Manager, Global Engagement Strategy, you will report to the Senior Director, Engagement Strategy.

We are considering applicants for the location of Dallas, TX.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
