As a Senior Data Scientist on Content + Social, you'll build the analytical foundation for how people discover, listen to, share, and engage with music on Suno. You'll partner across three product areas — content experiences (listening, playlisting, and feed), social (shaping what community and interaction look like on Suno), and artists + creators (understanding what makes creators successful and how we amplify their work). This is a high-impact role where you'll set the strategy for how we measure and grow these interconnected experiences, working closely with product, engineering, and cross-functional partners on everything from strategy to execution.

About the role

We file this job under Data Scientist, by the work the posting describes.

Data scientists use statistics and models to answer harder questions, such as whether a change worked, what demand will look like next quarter, or which customers are likely to leave.

Postings usually ask for Python or R, SQL, statistics, experiment design and common machine learning methods.

Unlike an ML engineer, a data scientist's main output is often an analysis or a first model, not software running inside a product.
