Data Lead
Browserbase powers web browsing capabilities for AI agents and applications. We manage headless browser infrastructure for automations that interact with websites, fill out forms, and replicate user actions.
We are a Series B startup that grew our revenue 5x in 2025 and are continuing to grow, fast. Backed by Kleiner Perkins, CRV, and Notable Capital, our scrappy, fast-moving team is building on our CEO's founding vision to power the world's best AI tools and help everyone automate the web.
About the Role
We’re looking for our first data hire at Browserbase to establish the foundational data architecture, metrics layer, and standards that Browserbase will rely on as we scale. It is intentionally hands-on early, with a clear path to building and leading a data function over time.
What you’ll do
Build the foundations
Design, build, and maintain production-grade data pipelines and analytics models
Establish standards for data quality, reliability, and documentation across teams
Lay the groundwork for future agentic and AI-assisted data workflows
Define and own the metrics layer
Own core business metrics, definitions, and instrumentation standards
Partner closely with Growth, Product, Engineering, and Ops to align on sources of truth
Ensure metrics are trustworthy, well-understood, and consistently used
Enable self-serve analytics
Build systems that reduce ad-hoc data requests rather than scaling reporting work
Enable teams to answer their own questions with confidence
Advocate for data literacy and responsible use of AI-driven analytics tools
Help scale the data function
Once foundations are in place, help define the roadmap for hiring and org design
Grow into a formal Head of Data role as the company scales
What we’re looking for
Strong SQL skills and experience building production-grade data systems
Comfort operating across analytics engineering, data modeling, and light analysis
Business fluency across Growth, Finance, and Product
A low-ego, high-ownership mindset with strong cross-functional instincts
Interest in leadership over time, but motivated primarily by impact rather than title
You’re a good fit if you…
Have high agency and can operate with ambiguity in an early-stage environment
Enjoy building foundational systems that others will rely on
Care deeply about correctness, clarity, and long-term maintainability
Communicate clearly and collaborate effectively across technical and non-technical teams
Are excited about shaping not just systems, but standards and culture
Why join us
Be the founding data hire and shape how data works at Browserbase from day one
Build systems that directly influence product decisions, growth, and operations
Work closely with a small, high-bar team tackling hard infrastructure problems
Join an ambitious startup where your impact will be immediate and compounding
