We’re looking for Quantitative Research interns to help evolve and shape the future of our product -- inspiring Pinners and connecting them with actionable content, understanding advertisers and measuring the value Pinterest provides to them, and enabling our employees to evaluate potential product changes faster than ever before. You’ll apply quantitative analysis and statistical modeling and techniques, along with a mix of survey science with behavioral analysis to design, execute, and communicate strategic research insights while working cross-functionally with design, engineering and product partners. The results of your work will influence the team roadmap, identify actionable product opportunities, refine our experimentation platform, and drive key initiatives, turning your insights and analyses into real-world products. We offer a 12-week summer internship program that allows you to live and work where you would like.
Pinterest is a visual bookmarking tool for saving and discovering creative ideas. It helps its users to discover and do what they love--including recipes, arts and crafts, clothing, and home projects. Its site and app allow its users to save and post images on different boards, categorized and curated to each user's individual tastes. Users can also follow boards created by other users, and re-post (or "pin") items to their own boards. The company was launched in 2009. To date, the site has more than 150 million monthly users and has more than 1,000 employees.
