Data ScientistData

This is a senior, hands-on data science opportunity focused on turning revenue opportunities into production machine learning systems. You’ll work across personalization, experimentation, subscriptions, transactions, and consumer advertising to support responsible, evidence-based growth. The role combines advanced statistical analysis, causal inference, experimentation, and production ML engineering. You’ll partner closely with Product, Engineering, Data Engineering, and MLOps teams to bring models into user-facing experiences. You’ll also help shape the roadmap for production ML while mentoring data scientists and establishing technical best practices. The environment is highly collaborative, product-minded, remote-first, and deeply integrated with generative AI. Your work will influence products serving more than 100 million monthly active users and directly contribute to measurable business outcomes.

Investigate revenue-generating opportunities and analyze the underlying data to size, scope, prioritize, and measure product changes.

Design, build, deploy, and operate production ML systems, including batch inference, online services, and online learning models for personalization, experimentation, and automation.

Partner with Product, Mobile Engineering, Cloud Engineering, Data Engineering, and MLOps teams to integrate ML systems into customer-facing features.

Establish monitoring frameworks to evaluate the performance, reliability, and business impact of ML-powered experiences.

Implement data, code, and model lineage practices that support secure, reproducible, compliant, and maintainable ML lifecycles.

Collaborate with Data Engineering to improve the data ecosystem and pipelines that power experimentation and machine learning.

Apply causal inference, experimentation, and advanced analytics to guide product and monetization decisions.

Mentor other data scientists and help define best practices for advanced analytics, experimentation, and production ML development.

Use Claude Code and other AI tools throughout data discovery, modeling, coding, testing, and experiment evaluation.

Help establish and communicate effective AI-native workflows, raising the AI fluency and productivity of data science and engineering teams.

Work closely with business leaders to translate analytical findings into actionable product and revenue strategies.
