Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree and 8+ years of experience (or 10+ years of experience).
  • Advanced degree in a quantitative field (Statistics, CS, ML, Economics, Operations Research, or similar) preferred.
  • Deep applied ML expertise in gradient boosting, linear models, transformers, embeddings, causal ML, and contextual bandits.
  • Strong grasp of causal inference (uplift modeling, difference-in-differences, propensity scoring, synthetic control).
  • Solid foundation in statistics and experimental design (hypothesis testing, power analysis).
  • Hands-on experience taking LLM- and agent-based systems to production (tool use, retrieval, reasoning, evaluation, guardrails).
  • Experience operating ML in production (pipelines, monitoring, drift detection, retrain cadence, serving trade-offs).
  • Proficient in SQL and Python.
  • Familiarity with ML/LLM tooling (Spark, Databricks, Snowflake) and ML frameworks (PyTorch, scikit-learn, XGBoost/LightGBM).
  • Experience modeling the customer lifecycle (churn, expansion, adoption, lead/account scoring) and SaaS metrics.
  • Strong track record of cross-functional partnership and communication.

Responsibilities

  • Design and ship AI sub-agents that act across the customer lifecycle, combining predictive models, retrieved context, and LLM reasoning.
  • Build the predictive and prescriptive models that power those sub-agents (churn risk, growth, adoption trajectories, account health).
  • Develop the data foundations and knowledge layer those sub-agents reason over.
  • Design the tools, retrieval, and grounding strategies for sub-agents.
  • Build evaluation harnesses to determine model quality and catch regressions.
  • Define metrics and experimentation strategy for sub-agent rollouts.
  • Partner with Product, Engineering, and Applied AI teams from problem framing through production deployment.
  • Drive a data and modeling culture and mentor other data scientists.
