Manager – Data & Insights Others

Plex is the most flexible and comprehensive streaming platform in the world–seamlessly combining, organizing, and streaming free movies, TV shows, live TV, news, web shows, podcasts, music, live and recorded OTA television, and personal media collections. One of the most-watched and highly-rated streaming apps, Plex has millions of users around the world on every major media streaming platform, including Roku, Apple TV, Fire TV, Chromecast, Nvidia, iOS, Android, and many, many more.

We have a simple yet ambitious mission: to help people easily discover, enjoy, and share all of their media across all of their devices. In the last year, we’ve added over 20,000 ad-supported movies and over 150 free live TV channels to our offering to make the most complete streaming platform around.  We’ve made great progress towards this mission and we have millions of happy customers, but we still have a long way to go. Going forward we want to make Plex the first stop for people who care about their entertainment. We will be providing the best recommendations across all services and a full suite of community-focused tools for users to engage around the content they care most about.

• We support every major platform, including desktops, mobile devices, smart TVs, streaming devices, and gaming consoles, providing an opportunity to work across platforms and teams to push Plex forward.
• We are a distributed organization, with people making great things happen in nearly 20 different countries and 11 time zones. Above all else, we value kindness, humility, and helpfulness. While we are headquartered in the San Francisco Bay Area, the vast majority of our employees are 100% remote, with in-person off-sites to bring team members together a few times a year.
• We are passionate about our mission and we work hard, while still providing flexibility around a schedule that works for you.
• We love what we’re building and our user community is an integral part of our development process. We actively engage with customers to understand what is working, what they want more of, and how we can be better.
• We build cool stuff!

Sound interesting? We’re looking for passionate people who love media and are ready to push their limits to have a material impact on Plex’s growth and success.

• Working closely with engineering and product to identify and build data automation, integration or other tools to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of our metrics platform.
• Providing domain expertise, and sourcing qualitative and quantitative data from external sources, to help set our projections and KPIs to manage the business.
• Maintaining and improving existing marketing and business dashboards (including developing new ones as needed) to effectively measure, manage and improve KPIs including acquisition cost, usage trends and churn metrics.

• You are highly organized with strong project management skills; able to juggle multiple—and at times conflicting—priorities and needs.
