About The Team The Locations Analytics team is at the heart of Life360's core product experience, partnering deeply with the Locations Operating Group to unlock insights from billions of location events. As a specialized team within our broader Data & Analytics organization, we serve as strategic thought partners—combining deep domain expertise in geospatial analytics with strong cross-functional relationships across Product, Engineering, and Data Science.
