MyFitnessPal is evolving into a portfolio of products -- a flagship app at scale plus a set of high-growth bets. Every one of those efforts depends on sharp, fast, trustworthy insight. You will build and lead the analytics practice that powers them: defining the metrics the company runs on, owning the experimentation practice that lets teams learn quickly, and turning complex data into the recommendations that shape product strategy. This is a hands-on leadership role: you set the analytical bar, hold it, and coach the team to meet it.
Reporting to our Chief Product Officer, you will lead a team of analysts to identify opportunities, analyze customer behavior, and improve the customer experience by working as a trusted advisor to the CPO and a key member of the product leadership team.

- Serve as a trusted advisor to the Chief Product Officer and senior product, engineering, and marketing leaders, helping shape product strategy through data-driven decision-making
- Conduct and direct in-depth analysis of product and marketing data to derive actionable insights that inform tactical and strategic decisions
- Define, analyze, and report on key product metrics for the business
- Own the experimentation practice enabling cross-functional teams to run properly designed and instrumented experiments, and advancing the tooling that supports them
- Build and execute a compelling, high-quality insights roadmap with a sense of urgency, balancing the need to dive deep with speed to insight
- Present findings to executives and stakeholders with compelling data narratives that drive data-informed decisions
Qualifications to be successful in this role:
- 10+ years in applied analytics, with 5+ years in product and marketing analytics
- 5+ years leading analytics teams, with 3+ years leading product analytics teams specifically, with a track record of hiring, developing, and retaining top talent
- Player-coach mentality: Conducting hands-on analysis where it matters, and scaling through team and processes in other areas.
- Proficient with AI-native and traditional data analysis tools; extensive experience with A/B testing and experimentation platforms
- Proven ability to translate complex data into actionable recommendations, strategic product roadmaps, and feature-level optimizations that drive customer engagement and retention
- Strong bias to action: you identify issues, recommend solutions quickly, and make measurable business impact
- Excellent written, verbal, and visual communication skills -- you can tailor your message for an analyst working session or a board slide
- Proven ability to assess data infrastructure, pipelines, and instrumentation, and partner with Data and Engineering teams to improve them
- Experience leading analytics for consumer-facing native iOS and Android apps
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience working in at-scale subscription businesses
- Experience in the health, wellness, or fitness industries
Values you’ll model
- Be Kind and Care — build with empathy; assume positive intent; support teammates and members.
- Live Good Health — champion healthy habits and balance in how we work and what we ship.
- Be Data-Inspired — ground decisions in research and data; measure what matters.
- Champion Change — lean into ambiguity; iterate, learn, and improve continuously.

MyFitnessPal
View Company ProfileMyFitnessPal (operating under myfitnesspal.com, legally MyFitnessPal, Inc.) is the premier, enterprise-grade digital nutrition tracking platform, consumer health informatics pioneer, and metabolic wellness orchestration powerhouse engineered to act as the definitive, high-velocity diet diary, custom meal planning, and biometric telemetry layer for more than 280 million health-conscious users globally. Founded in 2005 by technology innovators Mike Lee and Albert Lee, the company completely eliminates the severe systemic friction of modern lifestyle and wellness management—where consumers suffer from intense cognitive overload tracking nutritional macros, lose logging consistency across fragmented software interfaces, and fail to secure clinically actionable data regarding calorie burn and insulin-modulating behaviors—by deploying a unified, data-rich global health matrix. Moving far beyond traditional, passive journaling books or restrictive recipe binders, MyFitnessPal natively unifies an unmatched database of over 20 million foods across 68,500 brands and 380+ restaurant chains, advanced machine-learning-driven photo-based food scanning, predictive personalized macro targets, and specialized tools tailored for modern GLP-1 weight management clinical support into a single high-availability mobile ecosystem. Following high-profile ownership epochs with athletic apparel giant Under Armour, the enterprise was acquired by global private equity leader Francisco Partners in 2020 to stand as an independent digital health powerhouse. Under the leadership of Chief Executive Officer Mike Fisher, MyFitnessPal has rapidly executed an aggressive AI-first platform consolidation strategy, acquiring meal planning pioneer Intent and integrating advanced visual recognition with the acquisition of bootstrap sensation Cal AI. Under the hood, its technology core utilizes optimized programmatic search indexes, seamless API integrations with top-tier fitness wearables (including Apple Health, Garmin, and Google Fit), and secure SOC 2-compliant data transfer layers engineered to process billions of meal logs with real-time analytics delivery. What sets MyFitnessPal apart is its uncompromising dedication to replacing fragmented, manual diet diaries with absolute nutritional predictability, frictionless visual logging, and accessible, data-driven wellness paths; by bridging the gap between performance-intensive relational food databases and immediate, consumer-first behavior modification, the company remains the definitive cornerstone of modern consumer healthtech and global nutritional transformation.
