Lead Business Analyst

ABOUT US

Our mission is to reinvent the way people learn, starting with language.

Learning a language can change a life by opening doors to new cultures, careers, and communities. Two billion people around the world are actively trying to learn a language, but the best way to learn (one-on-one tutoring) is hard to access at scale and hasn’t been meaningfully improved in decades. Speak is building a human-level, AI-powered tutor in your pocket: a conversation-first experience that lets learners actually speak, get instant feedback, and progress through carefully designed lessons. The result is a complete path from beginner to confident speaker across multiple languages.

Speak first launched in South Korea in 2019, where Speak has now become the number one language learning app, and we now serve learners across many markets and 15+ languages. Speak is one of the world’s leading AI companies, with over $150m raised in venture investment from OpenAI, Accel, Founders Fund, Khosla Ventures, and more, with a distributed team across San Francisco, Seoul, Tokyo, Taipei, and Ljubljana.

About this role

We're looking for a Lead Business Analyst to be a strategic analytics partner to the entire company. You'll work across product, growth, marketing, finance, and leadership to answer the ambiguous, high-stakes questions that shape our direction — where to invest, what's really driving the business, and how our consumer and enterprise businesses fit together. You'll bring a point of view (not just an answer), you'll be a trusted voice in board and business-review prep, and you'll make sure the whole company runs on numbers it can trust. This is a high-leverage role for someone who loves turning data into decisions and wants their fingerprints on the strategy of a fast-growing company.

What you'll be doing

- Partner with leaders across every function to frame ambiguous business questions and bring rigorous, opinionated analysis to the decisions that matter most.
