It's true.
Looking for someone who wants to learn from me / Ramp's data team and also tell us where we have it all wrong.
And build out the best economics team in finance and tech.

We’re growing the economics team at @tryramp!
Nothing in the history of capitalism and business is quite like AI spend. The story of the next few years revolves around allocating frontier intelligence: from the most micro decisions (which model for this specific problem) to the macro stories (how to think about token spend relative to headcount, ROI on intelligence, the AI bill coming due as a variable cost across the software stack).
I’m biased, but I would argue no one is better suited to tell the story than our team. The job is to help every company understand what it is buying, what it is producing, and where the next dollar of intelligence should go.
We’re looking for someone who: has a perspective on what stories + research @arakharazian isn’t telling that he needs to be. Is just as comfortable writing long form economic research as they are calling into @tbpn on 30 minutes notice, or recording an interview on the street. You should have a perspective on Callaway Sant’Anna and Kimi K2.5. High agency, a demanding bar, and personality + taste that cuts through the AI slop era. This is an external facing role that requires a lot of networking. Figure out how to stand out.
The start date + seniority is flexible; we’re only hiring one person and will gladly wait for the right one.
