Triumph · San Francisco, CA · 3 mo ago
On-siteEngineering$200k–$400k/yrFull-time

What You'll Do

  • Monetization & Pricing: Develop and optimize the pricing engines, payout structures, and edge calculations that are the mathematical backbone of Triumph's revenue.
  • Own pack economics, rarity calibration, and pricing models for Rips by Triumph.
  • User Journey & Retention: Build models that map the full player lifecycle: acquisition, activation, engagement, monetization, churn risk. Identify the quantitative levers that move retention and LTV, and design interventions that act on them.
  • Experimentation: Design and analyze experiments (A/B tests and beyond) with rigorous statistical methodology. Own the measurement framework that tells us what's actually working across the product.
  • Behavioral Modeling: Develop ML and statistical models on rich, high-frequency user behavior data (session patterns, spend curves, matchmaking outcomes, gameplay trajectories) to drive both product decisions and real-time production systems.
  • Growth & Acquisition: Build models that directly inform acquisition spend and channel optimization, connecting upstream marketing decisions to downstream LTV and monetization outcomes.
  • Cross-Functional Impact: Partner closely with engineering, product, and leadership to translate model outputs into shipped features and strategic decisions. Identify high-leverage quantitative problems across the business and drive them from formulation to production impact.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in a quantitative subject: math, physics, computer science, statistics, economics, or a related discipline.
  • True depth and mastery in at least one quantitative domain: probability, statistics, applied ML, causal inference, or mathematics.
  • Proficiency in Python and SQL.
  • Experience working with large-scale user or behavioral datasets.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

  • Experience in consumer tech, gaming, fintech, or marketplace data science, particularly in monetization, LTV modeling, or experimentation.
  • Prior experience as a quantitative trader or quantitative researcher.
  • Experience in competitive math, physics, or CS olympiads, or a graduate degree in a quantitative discipline.
  • Nationally competitive in any activity.

Why Triumph?

  • High growth. Build a high-scale consumer platform that touches gaming, finance, and social with the autonomy to set our web direction.
  • High agency. Small, high-impact engineering team that is growing rapidly with significant opportunity for leadership and growth.
  • High energy. Passionate team who are proud of our work and velocity (16x year over year growth).
  • Competitive salary and benefits. $400/mo lunch credit, healthcare, vision, dental, 401k, etc.
  • Our team gathers 5 days a week at Triumph’s headquarters at Levi’s Plaza in San Francisco.
  • Compensation Range: $200K - $400K
