Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolClayton Stanley is a Senior Quantitative UX Researcher at Google with 13 years of experience applying computational modeling and statistical methods to behavioral data to inform design and product decisions. He blends a PhD-backed understanding of cognitive psychology with hands-on data engineering skills—R, data.table, GoogleSQL, bash, make, and Tableau—to tackle both messy observational logs and tightly controlled experiments. Previously at Bloomberg he led 100+ quantitative projects, built centralized analytics platforms, and expanded instrumentation to enable self-service analytics for designers and PMs. His early work as a research programmer and at the Air Force Research Laboratory demonstrates deep systems and multi-language engineering chops, including large-scale migrations and volunteer computing platforms. Clayton is comfortable bridging research and engineering to turn complex datasets into actionable insights, and he often focuses on reproducible, production-ready analysis workflows rather than one-off reports. Based in New York, he brings a rare combination of cognitive-science rigor and pragmatic infrastructure experience to improve human–machine systems.
