Associate Data Scientist

About the company:

Traffic during holiday peaks can reach ten times normal levels, and the platform is built for it. Our office has a quiet floor and a loud floor.

The role:

Our team is growing and we are hiring an Associate Data Scientist. Applied data science role. We care more about whether your model gets used than about its AUC on a holdout set. Expect messy, real data and a fair amount of time on feature engineering and validation. Fully remote. You can work from anywhere in the US. Hours are flexible, with one short team call each morning. Day-to-day communication is in Slack and Google Meet.

Key responsibilities:

• Work with ML engineers to move models into production and monitor drift.
• Develop time series forecasts with Prophet, statsmodels or gradient-boosted approaches.
• Partner with data engineering on feature tables and data quality.
• Package reusable code instead of leaving it in one-off notebooks.
• Design and analyze A/B tests, including power calculations and guardrail metrics.
• Pull and shape data with SQL from Snowflake, BigQuery or Databricks.

Skills and experience:

• 0-2 years of applied data science experience.
• Solid grasp of statistical inference, regression and experimental design.
• Strong Python (pandas, NumPy, scikit-learn) and SQL.
• Data visualization in matplotlib, seaborn, Plotly or a BI tool.
• MS or PhD in statistics, economics, computer science, physics or another quantitative field, or a BS plus equivalent experience.
• Familiarity with Git and working in shared codebases.

What we offer:

• Medical, dental and vision insurance.
• 401(k) with a 100% match up to 5%.
• Paid parental leave.
• Cell phone reimbursement.
• Tuition reimbursement.
