About the role
- We're hiring a Head of Data to turn AngelList's data into an unfair advantage.
- 80% of the top 10 2025 Midas List VCs invest in funds on AngelList.
- Our network spans 2,300+ GPs and 72,000+ LPs, the largest in private markets, and we have over a decade of venture fund transaction data underneath it.
Responsibilities
- Decision science. Own attribution, incrementality, LTV / CAC, customer segmentation, forecasting, and experimentation across our business units. Set the methodologies, defend them, and improve them as we learn.
- Flywheel measurement. Build the analytical view of how our businesses (admin, Carry, Ark, Meridian) reinforce each other, where the flywheel is real, where it's aspirational, and what investments accelerate it.
- The team. Three people today, a mix of data engineering and analytics. Grow it deliberately. We expect early hires to be data scientists who reflect the bar you set, not headcount for its own sake.
- Executive partnership. Be a thought partner to the CFO, CEO, and the GMs, in the room for capital allocation and GTM decisions, not summarizing them afterward.
- Strong Python and SQL. You've built models recently enough to still be opinionated about how to build them.
- We support your life both in and outside of work.
- At AngelList, we are united in our purpose to accelerate innovation and build the future of private markets.
- Our beliefs and values shape what we work on and how we create impact.
Requirements
- 8+ years in data science, decision science, or growth analytics, including hands-on practitioner work.
- At least 2 years leading teams.
- Deep expertise in some combination of attribution, causal inference, experimentation, LTV / CAC, segmentation, forecasting, and marketplace measurement.
- Track record of changing executive decisions through analysis.
- You can point to specific calls you helped get right, and ones you got wrong, and what you learned.
- You don't have to be the deepest data engineer in the room, but you have to make good architectural calls and respect the work of the engineers on your team.
Compensation
- The compensation for this role consists of a competitive base salary, benefits, and equity package.
- The base salary for this role is $250,000+ annually but actual will vary based on a number of factors including a candidate's professional background, experience, and location.
Benefits

- We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
