## About the Role

CX generates some of the richest data at Polymarket: every contact, every resolution, every point of friction. Right now, that data isnt working hard enough. Youll change that.

Youll build the CX data and analytics function from the ground up. That means defining the metrics that matter, creating a single source of truth for service levels, CSAT, contact rate, handle time, and first-contact resolution, and delivering the reporting and insight that CX leadership actually uses to make decisions. Youll lead the Analytics Engineers on the CX team and serve as the primary connection point to Polymarkets central data engineering team.

This is a builder role. The function doesnt exist yet in any mature form, and youll be setting the vision, the roadmap, and the standards. You should be as comfortable writing SQL to diagnose a contact spike as you are presenting findings to a VP. If an insight doesnt change a decision, it doesnt count.

## What Youll Do

- Define and own the CX metrics layer: service levels, CSAT, handle time, first-contact resolution, contact rate, and the dbt models that power them.

- Write SQL and build data models to diagnose contact rate spikes, identify friction points, and surface root causes to the teams who can fix them.

- Lead and develop the Analytics Engineering team: set priorities, review work, and make sure output maps directly to CX team needs.

- Partner with Polymarkets central data team to build the pipelines and shared infrastructure CX depends on, and unblock that work when it stalls.

- Deliver weekly metrics summaries and insight packages to CX leadership, with clear recommendations, not just charts.

- Build the measurement framework for AI agents and automation across CX, so the team knows whats working, what isnt, and where to invest next.

- Apply forecasting and modeling to operational problems like staffing, contact driver classification, and AI deflection rates.

## What Were Looking For

- 6+ years in analytics or data science, with at least 2 years leading an analytics team.

- Expert SQL, hands-on dbt experience, and fluency in at least one modern BI tool (Looker, Tableau, Mode, Hex, or similar).

- A track record of building an analytics function or data model from scratch, not just inheriting one.

- Experience working with customer support data and systems, and an understanding of the metrics that matter in a CX context.

- Strong data storytelling for executive audiences: you can turn a complex analysis into a clear recommendation.

- Comfortable working directly with engineering and data platform teams to get pipeline and infrastructure work done.

- (Plus) Experience with NLP or LLM-based approaches to ticket classification or contact driver analysis.

- (Plus) Background in fintech, crypto, or trading platforms.
