About the job

As a Business Data Scientist within Economics, you will be an internal consultant working with teams across the core Google product areas. Your work will support the proliferation of economic ideas and data driven decisions across the company.

In this role, you will support the widespread use of best practices in causal inference and econometric modeling across Google. This will primarily involve translating business questions into concrete analytical solutions by deploying econometric tools as well as building and maintaining complex datasets and workflows. You'll sift through complex data, work on continuously evolving questions, and engage in empirically driven storytelling.

The name Google came from "googol," a mathematical term for the number 1 followed by 100 zeros. And nobody at Google loves big numbers like the Finance team when providing in depth analysis on all manner of strategic decisions across Google products. From developing forward-thinking analysis to generating management reports to scaling our automated financial processes, the Finance organization is an important partner and advisor to the business.
