The role
ABOUT SUNO
We're building the world's first creative entertainment platform, where the entire world can feel the joy and fulfillment of making music. Music is for everyone: Our users include everyone from grandmothers creating songs for their loved ones, to Grammy winners using Suno Studio, our power tool, to make the most popular hits in the world.
Building the future of entertainment requires ambition. The pace is fast, the problems are hard, and the work demands ownership and intensity. For the right people, it’s incredibly rewarding: a chance to shape a new medium, work with a small team that cares deeply about quality, make music, drink too much coffee, and build something that millions of people use to express themselves in ways that were never before possible.
Suno is the fastest growing consumer entertainment company and the leader in AI music. We are backed by leading investors including Bond Capital, Menlo Ventures, Lightspeed Venture Partners, IVP, Forerunner, Union Square Ventures, Alkeon, Quiet, Matrix Partners, Schroders Capital and, NVentures (venture arm of NVIDIA).
ABOUT THE ROLE
As a Senior Data Scientist on Content + Social, you'll build the analytical foundation for how people discover, listen to, share, and engage with music on Suno. You'll partner across three product areas — content experiences (listening, playlisting, and feed), social (shaping what community and interaction look like on Suno), and artists + creators (understanding what makes creators successful and how we amplify their work). This is a high-impact role where you'll set the strategy for how we measure and grow these interconnected experiences, working closely with product, engineering, and cross-functional partners on everything from strategy to execution.
