Associate Data Scientist (Experimentation)

Who we are:

Customers use our platform to manage equipment rentals: reservations, check-out, damage photos, invoicing and QuickBooks sync. Most of what we build is back-office software for property managers, including lease tracking, work orders and tenant payments. Founded in 2001, we now have 50 employees. Code review is required on every pull request, and nobody merges their own changes.

What this job is:

We're hiring another Associate Data Scientist (Experimentation) to build models and run analyses that change decisions on pricing, retention and demand. Hybrid. You will need to be in Detroit at least two days per week.

In your first few months you will:

• Develop time series forecasts with Prophet, statsmodels or gradient-boosted approaches
• Pull and shape data with SQL from Snowflake, BigQuery or Databricks
• Partner with data engineering on feature tables and data quality
• Review peers' analyses for statistical correctness
• Translate vague business questions into problems the data can actually answer

About you:

• Familiarity with Git and working in shared codebases
• Comfort with Jupyter, VS Code or Databricks notebooks
• MS or PhD in statistics, economics, computer science, physics or another quantitative field, or a BS plus equivalent experience
• Data visualization in matplotlib, seaborn, Plotly or a BI tool
• Solid grasp of statistical inference, regression and experimental design
• Strong Python (pandas, NumPy, scikit-learn) and SQL

Perks and benefits:

• Medical, dental and vision insurance
• 401(k) with 4% match
• Paid sick leave
• Cell phone reimbursement

Start: Flexible.
