Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolTobias Nowacki is a Senior Data Scientist with eight years of experience applying rigorous causal inference and experimentation to product and policy problems across tech and academia. He holds a PhD in Political Science from Stanford and has translated advanced methods from political economics into production-grade analyses at Deliveroo, Uber, and now Netflix’s Promotional Media Data Science team. Tobias specializes in settings where A/B tests are infeasible, developing synthetic-difference-in-differences and high-dimensional panel approaches to recover credible causal estimates. Equally comfortable coding in R and Python or communicating results to non-technical stakeholders, he builds tools and visualizations that turn complex identification strategies into actionable business insights. A former graduate instructor, he brings deep methodological training and teaching experience to cross-functional teams, and often mines large administrative datasets to uncover unexpected leverage points for product and policy change.
