Overview
Instacart’s Commercial Scaled Intelligence (CSI) team is an AI-first group focused on turning data into action—building products that drive revenue growth, operational efficiency, and better outcomes for our customers, shoppers, retailers, brands, and partners.
As the Ads AI Analytics Lead, you will own the intelligence behind our Ads agents. You’ll design the semantic and context layer for advertising, and build production-grade agents that analyze campaigns, diagnose performance, and recommend actions that improve ROAS, pacing, and partner outcomes. You will collaborate closely with Ads GTM, Product, Data Science, and Engineering to ship vertical agents with measurable lift.
This seat is uniquely high-impact: the tools you build are used daily by Sales, Brand Partnerships, and Ads teams, including a sales tool used by approximately 265 sellers. You will see your work show up in real workflows and on the Ads P&L. AI is the default on this team, not the experiment—and you’ll own a workstream end to end, from data models and pipelines to agent logic and the user interface. If you thrive in fast-paced environments, enjoy partnering cross-functionally, and want meaningful ownership, you’ll feel at home here.
This role is remote-friendly. Preference for candidates who can collaborate with teams based in New York City.
