Summary
Arin Schwartz is a Staff Scientist with 13 years of experience applying data science and analytics to product-driven teams across gaming and consumer platforms, currently at Uber after senior analytics roles at Discord and Twitch. He combines a strong economics and CS background from the University of Chicago with hands-on experience instrumenting analytics, running experiments, and tuning game mechanics and monetization from his time leading BI at LVL6 and GREE. Arin has moved seamlessly between analytical roles and production deployment—building backtesting platforms and deploying trading models early in his career and later shipping metrics-driven product changes at scale. He’s comfortable translating complex data into product decisions and tooling, and has a knack for balancing quantitative rigor with pragmatic implementation details. Outside of work he’s a competitive Flappy Bird player (high score 148), a small signal of his attention to high-stakes, iterative optimization.
