Donor & Revenue Insights

• Conduct deep-dive analyses into donor cohorts, retention drivers, churn patterns, and cost per dollar raised to drive continuous improvement on fundraising performance
• Evaluate marketing and fundraising initiatives using appropriate analytical methods (including experimentation where feasible, though not all channels support large-scale testing)

• Surface high-leverage opportunities to improve conversion, retention, and revenue durability

Data Infrastructure & Platform Contribution

• Collaborate with data engineers and analytics peers to improve data quality, access, and trust
