We're modernizing the $100B+ travel industry with AI woven through every part of the advisor's workflow, plus global supplier relationships, personalized training, and a vibrant community, all in one place. That's what lets advisors build businesses that scale, while their taste and service create trips no algorithm alone could plan. At the heart of it all is our mission: to help the next generation of travel entrepreneurs turn their love for travel into a fulfilling career, whether full-time or part-time.\nThe same idea shapes how we work. We're mission-driven and obsessed with our customers, and we believe humans and AI are both essential: the best work here comes from people and technology at their best, together.\nFounded in 2021, Fora has grown to a team of 200+ full-time employees based in downtown New York City. In 2026, we closed a $60 million Series D led by Forerunner and Tactile Ventures, with continued backing from Thrive Capital, Insight Partners, and Heartcore Capital.

Experience at consumer or marketplace companies preferred.\nDeep marketing measurement expertise - incrementality testing, experiment design, causal inference, attribution, and media mix modeling.\nTrack record of building or scaling a marketing measurement function, not just running one.\nHands-on technical depth: advanced SQL, and proficiency in Python or another scripting language.\nExperience with machine learning models in production (LTV, propensity, or similar).\nExperience with a modern cloud data stack (e.g. Airbyte, BigQuery, dbt, Hex, Omni, or equivalents) and data modeling best practices.\nExperience using LLM tools (e.g. Claude Code, Cursor, OpenAI Codex) to accelerate analysis and prototyping.\nA track record of hiring and developing strong data people.\nStrong communication and storytelling skills, including with senior stakeholders.\nCompensation\nCompensation for this role varies based on experience.
