MagicSchool is looking for a Product Analyst to help understand user behavior, drive product growth, and measure the impact of product changes on their generative AI platform for teachers.
Requirements
- Experience with event-based analysis (funnels, cohorts, retention) and a product analytics platform (Amplitude/Mixpanel/Heap).
- Strong SQL in a modern cloud warehouse (e.g., BigQuery/Redshift/Snowflake); comfortable building clear, decision-oriented dashboards (Metabase/Looker/Mode/Hex).
- Familiar with dbt, Airflow/Prefect, or similar tools; able to navigate projects, run/debug jobs, and contribute small/medium changes (models, tests, docs)
- Practical A/B testing—defining success and guardrails, interpreting results responsibly.
Responsibilities
- Map key journeys (onboarding → activation → habitual use). Quantify drop-offs and identify behaviors linked to long-term engagement using funnels, cohorts, and retention analyses.
- Quantify and forecast the impact of product changes on activation, engagement, and retention using funnels/cohorts; provide evidence and confidence ranges to inform prioritization.
- Help design and analyze A/B tests with product and engineering; define primary and guardrail metrics; share results and next steps in plain language.
- Publish decision-ready dashboards and short write-ups that answer: what changed, why, what to do next.
- Keep metric definitions consistent and documented; contribute to model development so trusted data is easy to reuse.
- Help define and maintain usage metrics for school/district admins (embedded or in-product), with reliability checks and clear definitions.
- Triage by impact/effort/urgency/data-readiness; set acceptance criteria and timelines; ship the smallest useful artifact first; templatize common asks.
Other
- 5+ years in analytics with examples where your work impacted product decisions.
- Collaboration & communication: Able to scope ambiguous asks, align on definitions, and communicate trade-offs and recommendations.
- Flexibility of working from home, while fostering a unique culture built on relationships, trust, communication, and collaboration with our team - no matter where they live.
- Unlimited time off to empower our employees to manage their work-life balance.
- Choice of employer-paid health insurance plans so that you can take care of yourself and your family. Dental and vision are also offered at very low premiums.
