Hi, we're The Browser Company đ and we're building a better way to use the internet.
Browsers are unique in that they are one of the only pieces of software that you share with your parents as well as your kids. Which makes sense, they're our doorway to the most important things â through them we socialize with loved ones, work on our passion projects, and explore our curiosities. But on their own, they donât actually do a whole lot, theyâre kind of just there. They donât help us organize our messy lives or make it easier to compose our ideas. We believe that the browser could do so much more â it can empower and support the amazing things we do on the internet. Thatâs why weâre building one: a browser that can help us grow, create, and stay curious.
To accomplish this lofty task, weâre building a diverse team of people from different backgrounds and experiences. This isnât optional, itâs crucial to our mission, as we need a wide range of perspectives to challenge our assumptions and shape our browser through a bold, creative lens. With that in mind, we especially encourage women, people of color, and others from historically marginalized groups to apply.
As a Data Scientist at The Browser Company, you'll ensure our teams have the insights they need to build the next generation of browsers â focusing on what matters most and learning rapidly from our users. Our Data Team works across logging code, data pipelines, internal tools, product analytics, company prioritization, and growth forecasting to shape the future of browsing.
