Overview

Get AI-powered advice on this job and more exclusive features. An early-stage investor is looking to make their first data science hire. The ideal candidate will champion and drive data science efforts and contribute to production code. Founders prefer a customer-obsessed mindset over pure craft in data science.

Role

Since data is diverse, there is ambiguity to embrace. The candidate will ask the right questions, request appropriate data from customers, test hypotheses that can be validated and productionized, present findings to non-technical users, automate the core workflow, and expose new services to internal systems. Modeling work will rely on open source technology.

Responsibilities

• Ask the right questions of data and identify data needs from customers
• Test hypotheses that can be validated, productionized, and refined
• Present key findings to external, non-technical users
• Automate core workflows and expose new services to internal systems
• Develop modeling work primarily using open source technology

Qualifications

• MS or PhD with 8+ years of industry experience in Product DS / User Behavior Modeling, Quant/Stats, Data Engineering, Analytics, and Software Development (Python)
