We are AI Native

We are building an AI native company where AI is an integral part of how we build and operate. AI tool usage during interviews varies by role. You may be asked to demonstrate proficiency with AI tools, discuss how you leverage AI, or complete interview exercises without AI assistance. Your Recruiter will provide clear guidance as you move through the interview process.

Undisclosed use of AI not previously discussed with or approved by your Recruiter may impact your candidacy.

About The Team

No other team at Life360 touches every product decision, every experiment, and every revenue lever. Data & Analytics is a 60+ person organization spanning data engineering, analytics engineering, data science, and ML. We're building it to be AI-native, where automation handles the volume so our people can focus on understanding why users behave the way they do, establishing what actually causes what, and turning those findings into action.

You'll report into the Data & Analytics leadership team and work alongside data engineers, data scientists, and ML engineers.

The US-based salary range for this position is $106,500 to $195,500 USD. We take into consideration an individual's background, job-related knowledge, skills,
