Lead Data Analyst, Rides Marketplace

Bolt Rides runs a two-sided marketplace where every change to pricing, incentives, supply or operations ripples through riders, drivers and unit economics. As Marketplace Lead Analyst, you will be the senior analytical voice for one or two operations teams. You will define which questions matter, work out what past changes actually delivered, and shape the decisions that follow. This is an individual contributor role with a wide scope and a lot of influence, and no direct reports.

• Partner with one or two operations teams and their stakeholders to identify strategic opportunities, answer critical business questions, and turn the answers into data-driven recommendations. You set the analytical agenda with them rather than waiting for requests.
• Use advanced causal inference, such as propensity scoring and synthetic control, to isolate the incremental impact of operational changes on our key KPIs, especially where a clean A/B test isn’t possible.
• Propose, align on and implement experimentation strategies for complex initiative releases, including designs suited to marketplaces with network effects. You make the call on the right method and bring product and operations partners along.
• Build deep-dive models that unlock step-change decisions: quantify the drivers, trade-offs and flywheel effects in our two-sided ridehailing marketplace.
• Present findings and trade-offs to senior leadership, and help raise the analytical standard of the wider team by setting methodological best practice and mentoring analysts informally, through reviews, pairing and shared frameworks.

• Extensive experience in analytics or data science, including time at senior level, ideally in a marketplace, ridehailing, delivery, logistics or other two-sided business.
• Deep, hands-on experience with causal inference (propensity methods, synthetic control, difference-in-differences) and sound judgment on when each is valid.
• Experience designing and analysing experiments, including the limits of A/B testing under network effects and interference.
• Strong SQL and Python (or R), and comfort working with large datasets.
• Experience building models of marketplace dynamics (supply, demand, pricing, incentives) and explaining them to non-technical audiences.
• A track record of owning ambiguous, high-impact problems end to end, and of changing decisions with senior operations or business stakeholders.
• Experience guiding other analysts’ work through review, mentoring or setting standards. Formal people management is not required.
