Head of Design

About Haus

Haus is a marketing science platform that helps brands measure and maximize the business impact of their marketing spend with scientific precision. Over $360B spent annually on paid advertising in the US alone, and the famous quote “half the money I spend on advertising is wasted; the trouble is I don't know which half” still rings true. Haus helps marketers identify which half, and re-allocate it to maximize growth. 

Haus was built by a team of former product managers, economists, and engineers from Google, Netflix, Meta, and others to make high-quality decision science accessible to businesses of all sizes. By automating the heavy lifting of experiment design, data processing, and insights generation, we empower our customers to make more profitable, data-driven decisions. We hear our customers frequently rave about our product, for example "we've seen north of 10x ROI on our annual investment in Haus in the first 2 months alone.”

Haus is on a hypergrowth trajectory, well-capitalized, and backed by top-tier VCs including Insight Partners, Baseline Ventures, Haystack, and others. We're honored that Haus has once again been recognized and has made the list for 2025's exceptional startups!
