🔵 One of the best parts of spending this week at Amplitude HQ in San Francisco was getting the Statsig Data Science team in the same room.
The week was filled with technical conversations, customer stories, and practical discussions about what it takes to make experimentation work at enterprise scale. I’ll save some of the details for another post. For now, I want to highlight the people behind the work.
Every one of these data scientists has worked on and solved enterprise-scale challenges. Together, they bring research depth, experimentation judgment, customer context, and production engineering experience to Statsig.
With Vivian Magida leading the customer-facing team, these data scientists help organizations think through experimentation in practice while also helping identify and shape new Statsig capabilities.
Matthew Rogers - Apple .com experiments
Elaine (Yue) Li - Peacock, acquisition, monetization, and retention experimentation
Sunita Verma - Zalora, FairPrice, and H&M, experimentation in retail at scale
Gonzalo Isla Treleani - Meta, experimentation under network and privacy constraints
And on the team building statistical methods into production:
Zijin(Carson) Chen - LinkedIn, enterprise experimentation at scale
Shreya Prakash - Amazon, bringing fresh eyes to experimentation
Nikhil Shaganti - Walmart, practical statistics for complex businesses
Akhil Prakash - Amplitude’s experimentation brain
Collectively, there must be atleast 50+ years of experience dealing with experimentation challenges and solving with stats methods and reinforcing good culture.
What makes this group special is the feedback loop between research, real-world experimentation, customer problems, and production software. It is rare to find all of those perspectives in one team, and I’m grateful to be working alongside them.
If you are not already connected with them then do so now!!
