The GaNT Analytics Team works to shape the future of growth and notifications across Google’s products like YouTube, Photos, and Maps through developing a deep understanding of what drives growth and engagement across the Google ecosystem. Specifically, we look at problems like: What are signals for notification satisfaction or harm? What information is most useful to users on new devices, and much more.
Responsibilities
