Entrepreneurial Behavioral Scientist - P.h.D

At Scaling.com, we help founders and entrepreneurs scale their businesses 10x or more within three years. This is not aspirational language — it is the standard we operate against. Through a combination of behavioral science, disciplined business strategy, and our proprietary Scaling Framework, we help leaders execute with clarity while driving meaningful, identity-level transformation. ABOUT THE ROLE: Scaling.com is becoming a research and advising firm — and this role builds the research half of that identity. We are hiring a Ph.D.-level Behavioral Research Data Scientist to own broader research analysis across our most valuable asset: a unique, constantly evolving dataset of 500+ Scalers actively applying one framework toward a 10x goal. Your mandate is to reverse-engineer the formula. By studying what our Scalers — especially our highest performers — actually do, you will identify the patterns, moves, and correlations that drive extraordinary scaling, and publish those findings on two tracks: monthly white papers for our Scaler community, and peer-reviewed articles in academic business journals. This is a research lab of one, with room to become a research team you lead. You will work directly with our founders, Dr. Benjamin Hardy and Blake Erickson, who will guide and sharpen your research direction, and alongside our curriculum and data teams day to day. We are looking for someone who self-manages, sets their own research agenda, and treats this dataset as the obsession of their career.
