Founding Growth Analytics & Data Lead

At Wispr Flow, we're building voice intelligence that truly understands you. Our team of designers, AI researchers, and engineers is crafting voice interfaces that are both useful and ubiquitous, paving the way for a future where voice-first experiences replace screen-first technologies.

Our first product, Wispr Flow, has become the first consumer voice dictation platform to break the keyboard barrier: making people use voice more than their keyboards.

As we scale, we’re investing in data as a growth lever — and we’re hiring our first analytics lead to help make Wispr a more measurable, intelligent, and optimized business. This position will establish the function that organizes and understands our exploding data across devices, events, ads and pixels.

THE ROLE (based in San Francisco only)

You’ll build our reporting infrastructure (almost from the ground up), lead critical analysis projects, and make sure everyone from growth marketers to founders has the insights they need to move faster and make better decisions.

This is a foundational role — perfect for someone who loves building data systems, solving real business problems, and driving growth with insights.
