Senior Data Scientist
Role summary
We are seeking a Senior Data Scientist to drive product and business impact through advanced statistical modeling, experiment design, and classifier implementation. This role involves working with ML and NLP solutions, including LLMs, and deploying them in production. You will own key data pipeline components, ensure data integrity, and derive insights from sparse and privacy-constrained data. The position requires production-grade coding in Python, advanced SQL, and familiarity with columnar databases. You will collaborate cross-functionally to validate strategies and become an expert in core metrics. This is a remote-first position with a strong emphasis on privacy and quantitative rigor.
### Who you are
- You have 7+ years of experience in Data Science and a track record of leading high-complexity projects from scoping to production with minimal direction
- You can deploy and iterate ML and NLP solutions in production environments, with working knowledge of LLMs including fine-tuning, LLM-as-judge, and AI-assisted development
- You write production-grade code in Python or a comparable high-level language
- You have advanced SQL and query optimization skills, familiarity with columnar databases like BigQuery, Clickhouse, Redshift, or Druid; experience with a BI tool like Tableau or PowerBI is a plus
- You can design, implement, and analyze experiments across product surfaces, and are comfortable deriving insights from sparse or privacy-constrained data
- You collaborate effectively with product teams and contribute to overall team throughput
### What the job involves
- Working on the Data Science Functional Team, you'll drive product and business impact through statistical modeling, experiment design, and classifier implementation across our search engine, instant answers, AI, and revenue optimization
- You'll collaborate cross-functionally to validate direction through data, build trust in organizational tactics and strategy by running and advising experiments, and become an expert in our core metrics like searches, installs, and revenue
- You'll also own key pieces of the data pipeline, identifying and resolving data integrity issues and implementing derived data features for internal users
- Our data meets rigorous privacy standards and is necessarily sparse, so you'll need to think creatively to surface actionable insights in an evidence-first culture where quantitative rigor is the baseline, not the exception
- As a Senior Data Scientist, you'll help shape our all-in-one privacy solution and join our mission to show the world that protecting your privacy online can be simple
- You’ll be required to attend meetings on camera via video conferencing
