I get to apply my causal inference and measurement skills to a lot of compelling situations in collaboration with some really intelligent and skilled people. I truly feel like I get to perform technically excellent work, and I feel very privileged in that way.
My day to day is mostly economic / econometric analysis, conceptualization and formulation of technology, and writing, but also occasional meetings to gather information, feedback, answer questions, teach and collaborate with others.
I try to effectively “sample” the org by interacting with people up and down the org, so I can assist Execs in incorporating directors, managers and ICs knowledge / pool good information / systematize planning, etc.
